*Yawn* Morning Sweeties!

Or...Bit of a lightweight and other stories....

😘

Friday; the end of a busy week at work, what with bugs in systems, irate users, me trying to be professional and lots of walking from station to station. Ah, the life of an IT person...

So...tired. Got home, spot of cleaning, shower and change into some night attire (nothing sexy, sweeties...purely functional! Lol!), cooked tea - delish veggie curry - and waited for Matt to come home from the gym, shower, change and eat together....

...then, must have hit a bit of a carb coma, as we call it, as I drifted off to sleep on the sofa. Must have been around 10:30....I woke up at stoopid-o-clock to use the toilet, confused that I was still downstairs (and that Matt was by my side), went to use the toilet, came down and snuggled with Matt until morning...

Seems like I lay down asleep on Matt's lap for the duration, he manoeuvred me out so he could change, brought down a pillow and a blanket and we snuggled together.

What a nice guy he is - we've not done that for a few years....and....what a lightweight I am...

😘☺️😘

I was in IT virtually all my career (short diversion into management consulting that was a disaster).

I quickly moved to management so I was doing less of the leg work but often was telling members of the team to take time off it is a job that at times really can take a toll.

@OldBrit ...and everyone thinks they're an expert....and simultaneously you're the pariah as the programme/equipment won't do what they think it should do...

@CassandraSissy I very rarely got thanked for all the time the systems ran properly. Then got bonus (or threatened with the sack) when repairing a broken one. How's that help deliver actually good functionality that is reliable?

It teams should get bonuses based on availability, reliability me functionality delivered repeatedly.

@OldBrit Well, I do get thanked from time to time, but sometimes with the, erhhh, comment that '..well, that's a bit silly, isn't it?' when the way around the issue is a little bit convoluted. Don't blame me, I tell them, I'm just the person that worked out how to do it, I didn't create it! Lol!

Then sometimes I get a 'Oh, she's cute!' kind of comment, which is nice but....brains as well as beauty, sweetie...brains as well as beauty...
