Should it ever arise, I have a brother who is a plant manager of a fairly decent-sized plant in Utah - I could mention you to him if you end up needing a job.

Sibling hate, eh?
No, I'm close with my brother. I'm sure Bushie would be an excellent employee.

Would you be interested in my beachfront property in South Dakota?

Thank you, Tmth, I will definitely keep that in mind!

I had a great day at work!  I was able to put in a half hour overtime this evening.  The next two days will be very interesting as I will work the normal 8:00-4:30 tomorrow night, but then I'll go back to work from 10:00 pm-2:00 am Friday before going back to work again for my normal 8:00-4:30 shift on Friday.  Friday, February 1, 2013 is double dispersement day for the Social Security Administration for its when the SSI beneifts get deposited as normal on the 1st, but the SSA benefits which normally gets deposited on the 3rd of each month will also be deposited on the 1st because the 3rd is Sunday.  They are offering not only OT, which is time and a half, but $5 an hour over and above the normal time and a half.  That's an extra $20!  My paycheck on February 8 will be a lot fatter than what they have been!  I will be tired come Friday evening because tomorrow and Friday should be extremely busy, but it will be worth it.

For the first time in a long time, I finally feel peace at my job and with my job.  Things are continuing to transpire that really makes me believe I'll be there for a quite a while.  They are trying to get me a security clearance for the US Forest Service, I just went to get the federal fingerprinting done today, which is why I was a half hour late clocking out.  I now have two accounts to support with the US Department of Agriculture (Forest Service) and the US Department of the Treasury (Social Security).  They are going to start working on getting me on permanent next Wednesday when my 90 days expire.  It still may take some time from there, but they'll get the ball rolling.  I have overtime opportunities through next Friday, at least, which I've signed up to work tomorrow night/Friday morning.  I know I can't get too comfortable, but I feel good about where things are headed in the next several months.

It is 18:15 and I will be headed back to work in about 3 hours 15 minutes.  I will be working from 22:00-02:00 tonight.  I will get $23 an hour tonight for all 4 hours.  Meaning after taxes, I will cash in about $80.  $23 includes the regular $12/hour, plus 1.5 OT = $18/hour + $5/hour incentive = $23.  It will be busy tonight, but i'm looking forward to it.  I'm looking forward to tonight.  After I get home at 02:15, I will watch a little Weather Channel and hit the sack by 02:45 and wake up about 07:15 for 4 1/2 hours sleep.  This is going to be fun!

I will be leaving for work in 12 minutes at 21:30.  I'll get, of course, 4 hours in tonight which means everything after 11:30 am tomorrow will be time and a half!

I'll check in with you guys again when I get home in 5 hours next month!

Good Friday Morning and Happy February 2013!!  I had an AWESOME late night/early morning!  It was back to back to back to back to back calls all night long, but they were all quick calls and it felt good being able to answer these customers' questions and finding out they have money to spend!  I was excited every time I saw money being deposited on their account, almost felt like finding money in my account!  This was indeed a Wow, God type 4 hours!  I had SOO much fun at WORK!!! I will definitely be doing this again for the March deposit which will be from 10:00 pm Thursday, February 28 to 2:00 am Friday, March 1, 2013!!

His over the top euphoria is more in line with stimulants than depressants. Maybe Bushie has taken up meth.

I don't know. I can get pretty excited about stuff when I'm completely trashed. He is way too excited for pot though. It's probably alcohol. I expect him coworkers all got drunk on the overnight shift and he partook in the festivities.

Has anyone here yet congratulated Jeff for seemingly now thriving in the work environment?  Or is the general sentiment here not to take any of that at face value?

The latter. You know: "Fool me once, shame on you. (...)"

If he found the bottle, congrats to him. I just hope he knows him limits. Working while buzzed can be a great feeling. Last year, after my first mock deposition, my team went out and pounded drinks for an hour for lunch and then went to class at 1:30. It was the best class I have ever been to!

Our university has a beer garden that's open in the summer. I've filled up before an evening class from time to time...and it did indeed improve my lecture experience.

I wasn't high, I was just delirious. Smiley  I was sleep deprived at 2:30 am and only managed 5 hours sleep.  So, I am still extremely tired and may see an early night in my future!

Thanks, Torie!  I feel good about what I've done this week.  I ended up getting 4 1/2 hours Overtime this week.  I will have a nice looking paycheck next Friday!

Folks, this concludes Season IV of the Update Thread.  The writers want to thank you for your viewership, even though it was a tad boring at times.

Stay tuned for Season V.
