aaaaannndd the broadcast just blew up

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Wait. You're a FED? That's amazing.

 

Eh, sort of; I'm technically private sector. Contractor and all that.

 

Still pretty [expletive] cool.

[Derwood]

You wouldn't trade a job at Best Buy for anything?

 

Who says I still work at Best Buy?

[SpongeWorthy]

Well I hadn't heard about any job openings as a roadie for Drive By Truckers so I just assumed

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I would trade Derwood's schedule for Sofa's schedule, but it isn't bad or anything. But the three days off in a row, and a shift where you don't have to get up early but don't work THAT late, is unbeatable.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Top notch broadcasts the past few days.

[Outshined_One]

I've always wondered what it would be like to listen to a baseball game while underwater.

[ScrubMD]

Out of college I had a job where I worked 3 days a week 7pm-7am and I wish I could have kept that schedule forever.

[Derwood]

Top notch broadcasts the past few days.

 

and the MLB.TV feed has had zero issues. So odd. Both days must have been a TV network issue

Everyone should have 3 days off; it's the greatest thing in the world. No matter how busy your weekend is inevitably you almost always still have 1 day to just do whatever. It's the best stress-killer.

[SpongeWorthy]

I feel like schwarber should be murdering some of these pitches he's fouling off or getting under

3 days off would be awesome, but 2 days off in a row is a must. I pity my co-workers who have stupid schedules like Monday and Thursday off. You can't do [expletive] with that schedule

 

And getting off at 2pm on Thursday and not working again until Sunday is basically 2 1/2 days off

when are the Cubs getting their TV network again? this is pathetic

[Sammy Sofa]

If I could get to 3 days/13.whatever hour-shifts I would do it in a heartbeat.

[OleMissCub]

I only work when I have to go to court! \:D/

 

Most lawyers play golf in their free time... I play Rome Total War and slay many, many Gauls.

[Sammy Sofa]

Flip Rizzo and Schwarber in the lineup.

Sounds like you get to avoid the traffic hours too. Although I suspect in DC you ride the Metro or whatever it's called.

Yup. A two day off one is nice, but it always goes by so quick. When I get three in a row, it always feels like I was actually off for a bit. It's perfect. That said, I get screwed often times with the non-consecutive days off, and you're so very right, it sucks.

[SpongeWorthy]

Bust it open KB

Here comes the thunderclap.

Nah, there's no traffic either way, luckily. My commute ends up being only about half an hour.

Hey now. Some of us golf during work hours.

Yup. It's a miracle that I'm outside of the many, many, MANY gridlock hours.

[CincyCubsFan]

Bryant makes me sad.
