i hope that i'm not using up my luck allotment on this

Our IT all-hands meetings have a raffle at the end.  In the last meeting, i won a basket of Godiva chocolate.  Today, i won a bottle of Etude 2006 pinot noir.

The best part is that i didn't go to either meeting (a coworker puts in the names of her off-shift teammates).

Excellent. I won a ReadyNAS Duo 2150 from a supplier just before Christmas, and a Sony VAIO NW20SF/S this week from another supplier. But I'm greedy, so I too hope I've not used up my luck allotment.

That is lucky indeed, assuming Godiva doesn't taste like soap to you.

Couple weeks ago I won a multimeter in a drawing via the Make blog, and a book through LibraryThing Early Reviewers, on the same day.

I dunno, luck seems to have a terrible memory when it comes to keeping track of these things.

Yay for the kind coworker that puts in for the off-shift workers!

Hah. Later this month, on shift, I'm required to come in after 6 hours of sleep for a really important meeting on How To Become A Better Public Servant in preparation for us becoming public servants. Our union agreement specifies that there's no overtime or flex payments for time done outside of night shift. We're just not allowed to do that. I haven't yet decided what statement I'm going to make at the meeting. I guess it all depends on whether I've started applying for jobs by then.

You think you're good? Several times a week, I win lotteries I never entered.

I got a rock.
