i didnt end up doing a morning till midnight shift on friday. i knew it would be too much and i knew i needed to stay concentrated for late last night as i didn't want to be switching off the wrong the trading system. that would not be cool and would necessitate an early end to my contract.....or maybe not seeing as the chancers can get away with their catalogue of fuck ups with impunity.
it all went smoothly on friday night and i got home from work at 1.30am and found myself walking to the station 7 hours later, this morning to finish off the work. did most of it last night so it was a pretty easy morning, and i was also surprised to see one of the chancers in the office to provide support if any was needed, for part of his project. he appeared to be doing very little and was not seen after 3pm, which surprisingly enough was when the system he was supposed to be supporting fell over. as usual, i got asked to deal with it.
how long does this shit need to go on for and how many times do i need to put out their fires?. well i got the answer yesterday. it will go on for the next 2 months. its been decided that i have to do 3 days a week at the hedge fund in mayfair sorting out the chancers mess, and then thursdays and fridays in our main office working on my project. wonderful!.
anyways, today i booked my hotel in los angeles and yesterday i booked my rental car as well. someone posted a clip of the hertz car rental at LAX, and i thought i had to get one. it kind of goes against my environmental conscience driving a 5.7L V8, but i figure its only for 1 week in a year and so i am allowed. i am going to book a couple of nights hotel in las vegas and also a couple of nights in san diego and thats me done. cant wait.
i also need to start making a soundtrack for my trip like i always do.
