Good times, ish!
Sooo, I've got to start writing more often..
Which is why I'm writing now, I don't know what to say but let's talk abot what I've been doing today!
I got up at around 5am after 3 hrs of sleep, always fun leaving for work that early.
As I was making my way to the subway I was thinking how fun it would be if the shiftmanager, aka the guy with keys to open the door etc, would oversleep due to the change to summertime we had sat->sun, how good it'd make me feel.. Yes, I love when bad things happens to others, specially ones I don't really care for :P
So, I arrive at work at 5.45-.50 or so, I see the lights in the office are turned on and I can hear the music, so I bang the door without anyone comming out to open up. I try calling the phone in the office, no answer. I figure he's either got his headphones on, or is downstairs changing, or hasn't arrived yet.
At 06.00 the next guy arrives, the one who's supposed to take inventory and the delivery for the day, none of us know where the last guy is, the only one with the key! So we ring him up, when he answers he replies something like "No, I don't work today".. .. .. I saw his name on the schedule, 0600-1500. So here we are, 2 guys ready to work, locked out.
Then I ring up another guy who has keys, that should start at seven, he says he's on his way, he usually has a car and I figure he'd be at the restaurant in perhaps 15 minutes at the most, we wait, and wait...and wait!
While we're waiting, a guy from Air Liquide shows up, there to fill up our tank of CO2, and we still don't know when anyone will show up with a key.
At 06.30 I start joking about how long it takes to fire up the machines and get them warm enough to cook the food.
At 06.40 I start to get alittle worried.
And finally at 06.45ish we get the door opened because someone FINALLY showed up. I make my way in and turn everything on. Normally it takes some of the things 30 min to warm up, and we open at seven, fun! I lost almost an hour of prep, which set me back for the whole day, I figured I was going to have a bad day.
I don't really know why, but I was quite happy the whole day, despite of pain in my back, my legs and my head.
I think it had to do alot with who else was there, and that around noon we opened the big doors and let some spring air in, and the sun was shining.
We had alot of guests, alot of burgers to flip and not really any slow moments, which is good because time passes quicker as we all know!
Finally I get to make my way home, I accompany Sandra to Gullmarsplan, talking and joking about this and that. Finally home I sit down and game some, what else is new? Sara comes over to join me and Anders gaming, and as always she gets picked on and retaliates with pokes and icy cold hands, brrrr!
At 7pm we started our 10man raid to ICC, with only Festergut, Professor Putricide and the Lich King left we expected quite a quick run. After a lol-wipe on Festergut we down him and I get my achievment for defeating him without anyone having more than 2 stacks of the safety buff.
This leaving me with only ONE more achievment to get before I also get my frostbrood dragon, meaning I'll have it on wednesday I believe, WOHO! :)
Then we spent alot of time dying on Putricide due to what I'd sum up as silly mistakes, bad focusing, and too much stressed talk on Mumble(Vent-like). Finally he died aswell on heroic mode, leaving only Lich King left, and we killed him with the achievment to stack up necrotic plague to 30+ (we had ~39 stacks when we got rid of it :P), took us 2 or 3 pulls. Heroic mode next week!
So all in all, despite having pain all over, a bad start of the day and alot of guests at work, it turned out not so bad! I think it was the sunshine as I left work to go home that really made it a good day, I'm looking forward to more sunny days to come.

Bad days
Soooo, bad days, they'll screw you over and leave you in a crappy state of mind, for me that's the case atleast.
Work today was just...dreadful, in lack of a better word. Back was hurting, and after 2 hrs with backpain I got a headache.
The rules of how we get breaks at work are weird, random and changes depending on day, who runs the shift and how long you work, today I worked 06.00 - 14.00, 8 hrs, I managed to get a 40min break because I begged alittle, I was supposed to get 30. Another guy worked 9.30-17.00, 7,5 hrs, he was scheduled to have a 45 min break. That got me sortof annoyed.
Another thing I realized today is that my boss hasn't really said a single word to me in a few weeks now, I wonder if he's mad at me or something.
Last night the group I play ICC10 with managed to get their first frost wyrms, server 3d, very nice! I'll hopefully be getting mine next week, all I need is achievment from Festergut and to defeat BQL
Crappy pic deluxe, but they'll get better when the design is ready :)
