... Ive resorted to doing some work, FFS!!

I work in a quarry, on the weighbridge. A lot of our customers have already finished for Christmas at the end of last week, and the weather is against the others, so it's very, very dead in here now. God I'm BORED!

So bored in fact, I've ended up doing filing, cleaning and empying bins for something to do! I'll be done by midday and I've got 2 more days to fill.....! Any ideas?

Oh, we're still running the plant, and I've driven all there is to drive, so that gets boring in 10mins flat these days.

I think I might defrost the fridge.

I used to work on a weighbridge. Freezing in winter and baking in summer 🙁

My last day today for the best part of 2 weeks. If I start anything new now, I'll forget it before I come back on 4th january.

What to do for the next 5 hours? I'm a software developer* btw

* used to be known as 'computer programmer' but that's not hip & trendy

john - get a bit of code your mate will be working on, check it out of the CVS, rename every variable to john_is_the_man_1 and john_is_the_man_2 etc. Check it back in.

Go home in the knowledge of a job well done! 🙂

Just pull your head off and spread DNA everywhere if you cannot defrost the fridge and everything else is done.

What's the heaviest thing you've ever weighed then ? 🙂

We had a lovely old iron weighbridge smashed after some numpty dropped a high sided skip onto it from about 2 metres. I was in the factory at the time, about 1/4 mile away & still heard the bang it made.

How about a shopping trip on CRC, see how high a total you can get your basket to before it crashes... 🙂

It's a 50 tonne bridge. The calibration unit (Big truck, lots of weights and a forklift) is just under that all-up. Biggest loads are 44 tonne on artics. 🙂

Use a proxy server to get round blocked sites. Never done it myself and probably wouldn't , just read that you cab do that sort of thing nowadays. I am a computer idiot nowadays so I couldn't work it out.

Just had some lovely home made lemon drizzle cake with a cup of tea.

Yum.

Thing is, I've got so much to do at home. Due to unforseen delays I have to 'create' Mrs PPs Christmas pressie tonight. I shall lock myself in the front bedroom and only be lured out with tea and cake tonight.
Lordy, I do hope I've got all the bits I need now..... 😯
