I've been watching the big-ass storm getting closer on radar. It's very dark here, but no rain yet. The worst of it might be going slightly north of Evanston at the moment.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Then their brains would pretty much shut off at the usual quitting time.
My brain shuts off an hour before quitting time. Obviously, Jesus wants me to work 7-hour days....

It just got a little bit lighter, but it's still raining and lightning out there, so I'm going to wait another few minutes before heading over to the bookstore for the evening.

It's very dark here, but the nasty cell is going North of us so far. But we'll get gotten by the somewhat less nasty yet much larger cell that's coming right after....

Yeah, you can see the other cell coming into the frame on the "moving" weather map.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
If Jesus wants you to work a 7-hour day, wouldn't it be to your advantage to work 4x10, and get three hours of Jesus-sanctioned blowing-off time per day instead of just one?
Seriously, I know people who have voluntarily gone to 4x10 schedules, either to save a day's commuting gas or for life balance reasons, but it really shouldn't be something they decide for you. That part sucks.

We start 4 10-hour days next week
The DH's work is on a 9/80 schedule - 9 hours for 8 days out of every 10, and then every other Friday off/8 hours work Friday. It works, sort of... until they realize that they actually need people on the Friday's off. Then they have to pay OT. They are thinking of going back to a standard work week because it's costing them too much.
