Happy new year?

Due to some changes in my work status -- same company, just different
arrangements -- my first 3 hours of the new year will be spent working. I
ain't complaining, as I still got to choose my own shift, it's just a bit
comical I thought. The main difference in my job is that I am now on set
hours and have to actually punch an electronic time card, but I will also be
getting full benefits and 18 days PTO which I did not have before. I
actually should be working less and making just as much. When I was a
contractor (read statutory employ) I felt like I should be working all the
time. Now I will be forced to take time off. I will be having 2-day
"weekends" (actually my days off are Sunday and Monday) for the first time
in like 6 years. With the added PTO I must just be able to overlook the
time clock thingy. Before I had a lot of leniency about when I started and
stopped, or even if I wanted to on any given day.

So, yes, Happy New Year!! :^)
