I am sitting at work .... and have to check all nodes have done the switch tomorrow morning.

The funny thing is ... people like the idea of getting an extra hours sleep .... but most will find they will wake up at the same time as they do everyday .... I know i do.

LOL, Thats still an election issue in Qld.... People just dont understand.... Really, they dont...

Oh Sir Joe once said, it would upset the routine of the cows... Mooo....
The milk will get to the factory an hour later.....

Wish they would bring it in up here, sick and tired of wearing sunglasses on way to work at 4:50am......

Even if they just draw a line in the sand and have a split in Qld itself...

Rant Off...

I've be at work since 7pm last night ... so last night was really a 13 hour shift for me instead of 12. No extra pay of course .... stingy Optus.
