Sometimes I wonder why I still have a job. (Other than being a state employee it is a huge pain in the ass to fire someone and an equally huge pain in the ass to hire a replacement.)
I was suppose to be in a conference call at 1 EST. I just wrote down (and remembered) 1. I went to lunch like normal. I did not take a short lunch. I missed the call. I really really hope there will be an email with the minutes from the call shortly.
It did occur to me a minute ago that the call was on a super-duper giant-stick-up-one's-ass technicality an hour early. One pm eastern standard time is the same as 2pm eastern daylight time. But I don't think that argument will get me anywhere.
Do you think I can blame it on the fact that I am often on the verge of hypothermia in my office?

- I was transplanted here from Virginia to finish high school. While I can't believe I used to drive on the Washington beltway there are some things I still miss about the 'burbs.

It happens. We all do things like that. Don't beat yourself up about it. They should have been more aware of your time difference, too!
You still have a job because when push comes to shove, you do what needs doing. And you're good at it!
