False. For once, I am at home. 10 glorious days off, no standby, no on call, no nothing. I'm not being cocky, I'm just amazed by it. I'll be working on both the 31st and the 1st if that makes anyone feel better.
The person below me will be getting really, really sociable while I'm working (or at least on call) on the 31st.

True. I would hate to see IABD being delighted by it's disappearance, but I'm hoping we can at least make it to 100 pages.

False. I was working until 3AM on New Year's Eve. And back at it at 8:30 the next morning. At least the money was good.

True. Don't give a flying fudge about the person in the hotel room above me, other than the obligatory one has for another sentient being...and given my complete lack of faith in human nature, I'd probably care rathe more about a moderately intelligent dog. After all, I tend to think more of dogs than I do of a lot of people. The shallow end of the gene pool is encroaching on the swimming pool that is the world.
Oh. You meant the person above me in the thread. Why would I not care about you, 200hr? After all, you're a pilot! Pilots need care and charity and love and short buses and hockey helmets. Of course I care about you.
The person below thinks that I should buy some flame-retardent pants.

False. Fruit loops are fruity and tasty and crunchy...but I just can't deal wit the damage they do to the roof of my mouth. I tend to go with oatmeal most of the time anyways.
The person below me has good memories of oatmeal on cold winte days as a kid.

True. My Dad would make oatmeal for me, but he always stole my favorite, maple and brown sugar. I was stuck with the peaches and cream, which soon beacame my favorite anyways.
