My boss is doing it as well, so I am not complaining much. We both stepped away for a few hours in the middle. But this is not the first day this week we have had to do this, nor is it the first week this has happened.
For motivation, here is a picture of something I would like to drive before I die.

Make sure you steal enough tangible or intangible things to make up for it. I used to work 50 hour weeks. I stole a lot of time and stationery.

Fixed it for you.
What are you working on? Is this an activity peak or is this standard?

The video quality is terrible, but the audio is worth it.

That was definitely worth it. I also agree with his drinking schedule.
I’ve announced to my coworkers “look, I have a really bad hangover, so let’s all play nice because I don’t have the energy to deal with bullshit right now” more than a few times. It works surprisingly well.

Low head count, lost a manager who was the escalation point for everything, high on call density + activity peak. So, perfect storm. I’m still working and will be sleeping soon

Hang in there! Hope it will get better soon

Doug Stanhope and Bill Hicks are two of my favorite comics. They both have some great (read: dark and morbid) views on life and society.

Bill Hicks is responsible for one of my favorite jokes of all time:
“It’s always that same LSD story, you’ve all seen it. ‘Young man on acid, thought he could fly, jumped out of a building. What a tragedy.’
What a dick! Fuck him, he’s an idiot. If he thought he could fly, why didn’t he take off on the ground first? Check it out. You don’t see ducks lined up to catch elevators to fly south—they fly from the ground, you moron.”

Oh god, so many...
“If you have children, and I assume some of you do, I’m sorry to tell you this, they are not special. No wait, wait, I know
you
think they’re special, I’m aware of that. I’m just trying to tell you they’re not. Did you know every time a guy comes, he shoots
two million
sperm. And you mean to tell me your child is special? Because one out of two million...
that load
...connected. Gee, what are the fucking odds? You know what that means? I’ve wiped entire civilizations off of my chest with a grey gym sock. That is special. Entire nations have flaked and crusted in the hair around my navel! And to all you two egg carriers who think you’ve got the gift of life...I’ve tossed entire universes in my underpants while napping.”

I purchased my first Bill Hicks collection (Rant in E Minor) on CD about 20 years ago. While driving back to a friends dorm in Richmond VA, I had to pull over to the side of I95.
The bit about Jay Leno being fucked up the ass by Satan during a Doritos commercial had me in tears to the point that I couldn’t see enough to drive.
