Default Friday Afternoon Slacker

BBC NEWS | UK | Friday feeling costs firms £50m

I must admit I do treat Friday this way. Not sure whether it is the IT industry but the project i am on now, no one is even in the office on a Friday. Most projects I will be away by 3pm and if I'm not in the pub by 5 it's a crap week

On the flip side I worked till 8pm yesterday and wednesday so my hours are good, it's just that Crunchie feeling

My core hours are 8:30 to 5:15 monday to thursday, with 30 minutes for lunch. This means that I finish at 1pm, every Friday.


It's the best ****ing thing ever.

I work from home. If God hadn't meant for us to sit in the garden he wouldn't have invented wireless networks.

I've been doing my bit today to contribute to that £50m.

Would have been out of here by now except need to go and get my car from the garage and it isn't ready yet
