JWN's Night Shift vs Day Shift (page 6)

And it would appear I just spoke too soon... cause it's pissing down with rain right now

I was wondering how you were going Brin. Were you affected by the cyclone? You're in Darwin so I guess that's a silly question, but hope you're OK.

(sorry to be off topic, this is just the 'night shift'.....whispering)

Hey Penny! Cyclone itself wasn't too bad but the rain got a bit trying (to put it in perspective we got Melbourne's entire annual rainfall in the space of 3 days). It's over in Western Australia now... starting to dry up here. How have you been?

Is he an Aussie, Lizzie, eh?
Is it 'cos he is an Aussie that he keeps you busy Lizzie?
'as he jazzy ways and does he make you go all fuzzy wuzzy?
Got you dizzy, has he Lizzie?
Is he an Aussie, Lizzie, eh?"

Aussie hour!

**grabs a stick and pokes at the campfire... throws a bit of kindling on to re-vamp it... picks up a gum leaf and begins fidgeting with it while she contemplates getting more ice for the esky**

Hey . . . don't forget us "downunder" in the South Pacific . . . after all, this is the 'Internet' not the 'Amerinet' . . .

But if one wanted to establish the terms "day crew" and "night crew" for the sake of a silly discussion, would it not be reasonable to view time from the perspective of the server's time zone?

OK . . . so help me out here . . . I live on a South Pacific Island . . . it's 20 past midnight . . . am I day shift or night shift?

Broken Promises

You're technically the night shift as far as the Americans are concerned.
