Default Pulling an Work All-Nighter

So its not expected of me, but I am doing it. We got hit with loads of work, which has been delayed for the last 2 months. My partner in crime, or co-worker, has been planning holidays to California for the last couple months and took off (pretty hard to blame a guy for that, you don't cancel that, just bad luck with timing).

Last Thursday I was here all night, last night here till midnight and up to help with out stampede breakfast this morning! Now tonight, I might actually finish what I set out to do last Thursday!!! Basically, trying to get something to our talented GIS guys so they can get going on it.

Anyone else out there tonight?

Oh and for some reason the system is broken so security can't put AC on during out of office hours.....

Longest day I ever put in was a 60 hour day. I look back on it now and I would've accomplished more in two 16 hour days with decent sleep.

Funny, back in those days I was working an all nighter every week, over 80 hours per week. I think I'm far more productive now with a 50 hour week.
