One of my main problems when I first started working nights was that I couldn't watch my favorite show anymore. The Simpsons. It would end up leading me to buy a Tivo, but until then I was in agony.
What I would do though when I could was sneak into break rooms when they were empty and watch a few minutes of it. They were all repeats, but I really didn't watch any other TV than that. So it was important to me that way.
Well where I work we have an auditorium that has a huge screen on the stage. I would go in there on my rounds, but would just make things were clear and then lock it up for the night. Well after we got written up for eating in the break room while the TV was on we were pretty much screwed. We couldn't even be in the same room as a TV. Much less watch it anymore.
I got over that pretty fast. The other guard and I found how to work that big screen in the auditorium. It did take awhile though. I am pretty tech savvy, but I had never worked with a projector before, and I had to be careful too since it was work property and if we broke it then it would really be our hides.
But we got it to work. And we got to watch the Simpsons for a few nights, but they found out pretty quick that there was always no guards around during this certain period of time. So we had to cut it out before we got into some hot water.
And we were already in hot water for some stupid thing that I can't even remember anymore. But you haven't watched the Simpsons till you watch it on the big screen. I guess you can't really say that anymore since they cam out with the Simpsons Movie.





very interesting text)))

awww.. i think you can watch simpsons thru the internet too! :) Here’s another great article about funky, non-traditional office buildings, including Apple’s new space in CA. Could we transfer our office cubicles to any of these cool spots

I'm been dedicated to flying Frontier Airlines for years, but recently I've had trouble finding good Frontier Airlines deals. Does anyone know what day their fare deals come out?
