Ah, well you have 5 minutes to go before you're finished then!

What exactly do you do on a graveyard ?

Um, no - it's 7:25 AM.......daylight savings time.........

It's an expression. That's when they used to dig the graves - at night, so it's nicknamed the 'graveyard shift'.

I work at a machine shop. I'm a CNC machinist. As of last night, a supervisor, too! :biggrin:

Yup. Gettin ready for bed, too.
It must be strange working nights... Sleeping during the day and awake at nights... Like a bat :laughing:

I guess you have to shop at a 24 Hour supermarket like the equivalent of "Tesco" in the UK ? Since you'd be asleep during the day...

On the weekend, I flop my schedule around a bit, and we go in the afternoon.

I prefer owl...:wink: Although I like bats, too.

Rats are nocturnal too, especially ones with poisonous diseases...:laughing:

Also, rats have short tempers, vile moods, and small brains... Not that I'm implying anything! Haha!

Back out of high school, I was a mail sorting clerk at the local PO...usually started at 4 pm and worked till midnight. Hated it. Never had another job with those hours.

Because this is LMF, not TBN......threads don't always work the same on both sites. I only have an interest once in awhile in this thread.

Yup, if it's too off-topic for even the front porch, or you just wanna ramble, you do it in this thread.

Basically, yes, anything and everything goes here, even inane subjects like "my cat just threw up on on our valuable Persian carpet. but that is okay, because he is a Persian cat....." :laughing::laughing:

Erm... Is this just a general "chatting" thread ?

Yep, that's the idea! :thumbsup:
