Work is called WORK for a reason.

And not only that but on many occasions the people you are "sitting around and socializing with" (as if!) are not people you want to be doing that with!!!!

I love my job, so I'm cool with it! I get to play with fun toys, meet all kinds of people, have little to no direct supervision (night shift) and my coworkers are a riot.

OK, revived here and am really ticked. What the devil are people thinking? probably cute little babies and stuff like that.
