Yes I agree as it is good to have your day mapped out and to allow for unexpected changes my friend.
I used to also do that during my working years, but now I take things as they come, as the charity world is totally different because of the many people involved.
There are more unexpected things in a day than plans, as a person has to remain open to any requests or eventualities.
For instance if I get a distress call right now, then we go out to help. We don't have working hours.
Those relaxed walks are what preserves my sanity my friend and I grab them whenever I can.
You should do the same, plus you have the bonus of a bike. Easy traveling for half an hour and then back to work.
Cheers and thanks.
Yep, I understand that very well, but in my job you need a structured day or better said I need it.
I can't easily leave my work and go for a ride, and if I did I would have to work that much longer ;)
At the moment I'm very tired and the week off was much to short. Maybe at th eend of September I'll take two weeks off and let these days happen as they come ... we'll see 😀

Oh no my friend, if you take 2 weeks off then you will get six short weeks in return. Sounds like you like to torture yourself 🤣
I meant to leave during your lunch hour, or don't you cops get lunchtimes?
Yes, you are right, as at formal work one does indeed need to have structured days, but I am lucky to be out of it for 20 years already. Your turn will come.
Cheers and thanks.
Haha, Zac, if that was the case I'd never take any time off anymore 🤣
Lunchtime is also work time here. We work 8 hours per day and the breaks and lunchtime is included in these 8 hours. I spend my lunchtime usually at my desk doing some Hiving or Twittering ... or I go outside for a little smalltalk with my colleagues, but most time I'm here.
I have so much to do at the moment that anything that comes inbetween slows me down, and when you are working on long lists for hours, it's annoying when some other important work suddenly lands on my desk.

Hahaha, only a tease my friend and you can grab as many as you can get 🤣
Lucky guy you are. In constuction I worked from 6am to 6pm and on weekends from 8am to 5pm.
Every second week off because we were paid fortnightly (ever 2nd week) and then I took my pay back back home for the wife and my 3 children.
I often didn't take lunch or tea times and ate only one meal at night. That's why I say that you are lucky. No hive or mobile phones at that time.
And they often expect you to do do the urgent stuff at once and yes, I agree as it does interrupt ones workflow.
Cheers and thanks.
Bu tyou are somehow right, my friend, when I get back to work from holidays I need quite some time to do the work that has been waiting for me and that can be a lot.
I know that I am lucky, Zac, but still I don't like it. That's because I don't know anything else, except a few years working "normal" before I got this job, but this is long, long ago.
