Journal MadMorf's Journal: Ugh. Early mornings at the local IT shop.

So, after already working 44 hours in a 4 day week, I'm back at work at O-Dark 30 on a Saturday to put in at least another 6.

After 24 years in the IT biz I'm beginning to tire of it somewhat...

I don't have it so bad compared to some. At least as an hourly contractor I'm making big cash on weeks like this.

But I have to wonder, is it getting better or worse?

Seems like I'm always playing the role of destroyer. My previous 3 contracts, covering the last 6 years of my life, have been spent tearing down systems so someONE else can put in someTHING else.

This may be a bit over the top, but it reminds me of Robert Oppenheimer saying "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds..."
