Hating this week had to cover on call this week which I haven't had to do in like 3 years. Rough one too 10 hours overtime racked up so far.

Next month's pay bump is going to be sweeeeeet though

10 hours is hefty. No overtime provision in my place, so if I ever have to do it: I get it back instead. Love a free Monday off

Icing on the cake desk found the solution 4 days ago and did nothing with it

Oh man, I do not envy you! Hope the pay is worth it!!

Honestly im over it. After the work was done we decided throw the laptop in the boot ans ended up knocking around peebles.

What ended up was im on my laptop in a carpark in peebles pissed off because they phoned me because it was a hard ticket and they didn't know what to do next

And yes as its emergency cover im doing im getting a shit load of money

At least thats something!

Do you live in Peebles? I like it there!

[–] Z3k3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah. Just somewhere to go and get out of the house. Never been there before. Was nice and green

My grandparents were from the borders, so I know Peebles reasonably well. Its nice to stroll through and along the river!
