Definition of a Lie-in

[xseifer]

Hi,

I was reading a couple things, and realised that I may be taking a few things too far.

To me a lie-in in the morning means getting up at the crack of noon ie 12.   Am I wrong in thinking this is a good thing ?
Amazes me when people talk about a lie in they mean 8-9 in the morning,

Maybe I should re-think my "Lie-in" status, and get up earlier.  When I told my work collegues they thought I was a bit lazy on my days off.

What are people's opinions of this ?

Hi,

I work shifts, for example I have 5 day shifts from 7am to 7pm from tomorrow, so that's enjoying the weekend out the window. After that I have 2 days off then 4 night shifts hours are 7pm to 7am.

Its a very horrible shift pattern, but pays OK for Maidstone. Should look for a nice *normal* weekday job to be honest.

So for days I get up at 05:30am and nights its 05:30pm.

I wouldn't fancy those hours at all, what do you do?

Yes, lots and lots of computers.

Some contracts I can tell you that we do, Teachers pensions, and some local council things.
