"Hi Katie, it's Dan."

"Hi Dan, what's up?"

"Uhm, I'm just filling in the ah, overtime spreadie, and it keeps coming back to me saying that I work half-an-hour overtime every day. Like, even when I work my minimum hours, it says I work half an hour overtime."

"Well, what are your contracted hours?"

"Nine to five-fifteen with a 45 minute break for lunch."

"Hang on, I'll just...

[shuffle of paper]

"..."

"Dan?"

"Can I call you right back?"

"Sure."

"FUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!! Motherfucker! Fuck-fuck-fuck-shit-ass-balls-fuck-shit-hell-cunting-assballs!

Leaving the office at 4:45 ... I have dreams where I can do that.

I call them heaven dreams.

You work a SEVEN AND THREE-QUARTER HOUR DAY?!?!

Now THAT'S the dream.

And err...Adrian? You're going to be in an office in heaven? Personally, I think that's weird.

Well ... when there's a bid on I get massive overtime ... but when there isn't, I pretty much sit around doing not a whole lot. So an extra half hour of that a day for five months is not glad tidings.
