Overworked

Signs that shows you are consumed by work:

1. Your mum tells u that you were talking about work in your dreams. "8 servers is enough capacity for 250+ users," I apparently mumbled in the midst of my snores.

2. Because of the high print workload in the company, you ordered 8 Canon multifunction printers. Canon upgrades you from an 'SME client' to a 'Major client'. Canon sends a pretty and sexy sales girl to service you. Instead of using the opportunity to chee hong and flirt with the sales girl, the first thing you ask her is if they are going to upgrade their technical support service level and provide free onsite technical support. And then get distracted by her fake eyelash, wondering how long it takes for her to put those fake eyelash on, when she tries to sweet talk you.

3. You start to give yourself MSN Nicks like 'Corporate Zookeeper' to reflect the actual you work you do. That's right, I clean up all these animal's shite.

4. You MSN your friends, and ask them about ERP implementation in the middle of the night. And you wonder why they go offline five minutes later.

5. You think that caller ID is the best invention, because it allows you to filter only important work calls from the redundant work calls.

Sighs. I think I need a long nice holiday.
