I get to start the day with peace and quiet

New Boss and The Other Dave left a little while ago to fetch yet another rental van (because this weekend's fleet schedule is just that foobarred). So, I get to spend the first hour or so of my day eating my breakfast and lj-ing without the boss being antsy over my shoulder.

Must get more than 5 hrs sleep tonight, or I shall fall asleep at the movie tomorrow evening, and I'm not sure my friends would forgive me. I've spent too much of my after-work time on the phone this week, and it's caught up with me.

The Other Dave just got back, and says that his going away present to me was a boss-free morning.

Awwwww, isn't that nice?

Sometimes, I just can't help myself.



The half-full grocery bag of plastic snakes and spiders, left over from when my "good" boss retired 2 years ago, has been in my locker all this time. And it's been calling me, all week. So, finally, now that I've got the shop mostly to myself (the weekend guy won't blab), I decorated the office. 6-9" plastic snakes are hanging in all of the keyboxes, and the hanging file with the shop records, and in the top two drawers in Shop Steward's desk, and on top of the phone. I put the last bag of spiders (a dozen or so) in the drawer, and on top of the keyboard and monitor and files.

Not that any of them are realistic enough to give Shop Steward a good scare (he has a serious spider thing), and I'd bet he's expecting something like this, but I'd hate to leave without leaving a little something behind to say "I'll miss messing with you guys."
