To quote Futurama (in true nerd fashion).

LOL ;) I'm sorry for you Matt.... But noone won't kill you now, you need to deserve to die, but you don't :D
Well I hope I but it correctly in the words, if not, then forgive me, it was not intended to be anything bad.
Well I only had had 3 12hrs shifts succesively, while having a 12hrs brake between them, so can't say that I know what you feel atm. But sure it is hard....

I also forgot to mention we had / still have a server beeping at us in the room next to ours all day which slowly sends you mad.

Yea the title may seem a little ott, but hey ho, i'm not going to be doing a shift this long for a good long time now... making sure i finish 4:30 on the dot today and not a second longer!

i do 10 hour days as it is so another hour or two is no biggie for me personally... its just when you end up work 7am - 2am 2 or 3 nights in a row that gets me :unsure:

lol...I've worked a 95 hour week. That included multiple 24hr+ shifts. Yay for being a developer!

Its just not cool when someone comes in and says "wow you're here early" and you reply with "heh...I havn't left yet"
