What night shift? I obviously care too much. Telling people how stupid they are just cause their Blackberry doesn't work. Or they want more detail in their Change request. Like I care, i am just trying to fix their problem.! SORRY, GOING TO BED!!! gotta be at work at 8:00am! Feel for me. sorry meant ( that's me and probably may of you.)

halfway thru the 2nd night shift of three ..... sighhhhh .. this time last week i was in melbourne ... and only 10 days ago I was in Walcha ... that means only 11.5 months to Walcha 2011 !!!!!!! yayyyyyyyy Started looking at the Superbikes trip last night ... mmmmm some yummy looking roads in Vic too ... someone was telling me at Walcha that the roads around Bega were worth a visit .... mmm was thinking maybe a Firestorm weekend there the weekend after Supers .... could be RidingSA meets OzFirestorm all over again .... hmmmm .... muses thoughtfully .. the idea has merit ... will look into that one more soon .... so ends the esoteric ramblings of the night shift ......

OK so I've started my night shift.... First job... make coffee. Second job check email....nothing new there Third...Oz Fire Storm board...ahaaaaa some new posts. other than that its looking like a long and quiet (boring) shift. At least the boss hasn't left me any shit jobs. That could all change in a moment though.

Just seems like 100 hours until I go home. But it's really 5.30am. I'm on a new shift pattern, 4 on 4 off 7 day roster. 2 days 5.30am to 5.30pm then 1 night 5.30 pm to 5.30 am then 1 night, 5.30pm to 1am, then 4 days of bliss.

I hear ya Malone... it seems that a lot of people today have forgotten how to have a good time without getting wasted and in many cases looking for a fight as a result. Back in the old days it was the bikers that everyone feared for these things, Now we're out riding and enjoying ourselves while the rest of the world is trying to kill eachother.
