long day at work

today is the first day of a new era at work: we have begun a concept equivalent to Earned Day Off. at first i was going to Opt Out because i couldn't bear the thought of being at work for 9 whole hours. i rather liked the flexibility of not taking my lunch and leaving after a quick 8 hours.

but my boss convinced me to Opt In by reminding me that i could potentially take off 14 additional days per year in addition to the 15 days of vacation i have.

so, today it begins.

but i had lunch with some of the IT guys at Toyotomi on Hastings. the lunch ends up being 1.5 hours. oh shit! my 9 hours only takes into account a 30 minute lunch. now i gotta work an extra hour to make up the time.... 10 hours!!!! what the hell. i will definitely need an alcoholic beverage when i reach home.
