We are in 'alpha' phase at work right now, thus far it's been going well with everyone leaving work on time, or early in some cases, however due to last minute bugs and general iffy feedback from the publisher a minor 'crunch' has kicked in.

Normally I leave between 6pm and 6:30pm, depending on work (no work to do? Leave early...); today I got away at 9:15pm.

It wasn't so bad, we had pizza (yay!), a bit of a laught while finishing some stuff up and eatting and the time flew passed.

On the walk home I reflected that it didn't really feel like I'd been in the office for an extra 3h, which is both good as it doesn't make this a drag, however I don't want to make it a habbit.

Granted, part of the reason for it is to avoid us coming in on weekends as my producer is very much against the idea of coming in on a saturday; I agree completely with that [grin]

Don't make the mistake of getting an outdoor survival/camping package delivered to your desk.

Despite my pleading that it was for a forthcoming camping trip in *personal* time I've now been nominated to do the late shift as I'm now fully equipped to sleep at/under my desk... [rolleyes]
