 Today is fantastic!

God damn, today is awesome 
RDO for me! I have to do a little work, but it is from home I didn't have to drive in traffic, I don't have to talk to anyone except for my gf, I don't have to deal with silly little issues or office politics, I don't have to listen to people whining And I have the weekend to look forward too also!
I recon if I ever manage any amount of full time employees, I will ensure they have at least one RDO per month, I feel soo much better than I have in recent times, and I can see myself being far more productive on monday morning I slept for 9 hours last night!! awesome
Now I am drinking good coffee, listening to good music, working on a web site, and waiting for my gf to get back with some lunch (Sushi ) Damnit why can't every day be like this (I know I would not appreciate it as much if it was, but still  )
I deserve this too, working too hard recently. My boss is a champ for giving me this

Daniel! That would suck  I am lucky though, small company (4 employees including the boss) 2 of them are my friends (one of them you know - Jake from TAFE) and the boss is a friend too, he is a champ, we go out and get wasted with him on the odd occasion, he is just awesome Only problem with a small company is when someone goes away (Jake went away) everyone else works overtime, hence me working crazy hard over the last few weeks, hence the day off I didn't not want to do it, I wanted the extra money But yeah it is nice to relax
/me makes another coffee, mmmmmm robert tims to the rescue.

Don't need hookers, my gf performs their function fantastically, and then buys me lunch afterwards 
And I would rather keep luck out of my money making methods, risk taking with money is fine, but not when luck is involved
lol, I sound boring when I say that

I get a minimum of 1 RDO per month, but it works out about 2 per month on average, normally lined up with public holidays so I can get up to 5 or 6 days off in a row, every long weekend for me is now 4 days how cool is that

Most of my sickies are cool with the boss and usually taken like so:
Me: "Feeling sick of work and couldn't be f'cked coming in today... is that OK?"
Boss: "Yeah no worries... see you tomorrow"
