One month almost to the day. Years ago I had a bad case of insomnia. I would get 15 second cat nap and feel like I had slept 8 hours. I tell you that was the most boring month in my life. There's only so many infomercials one can stand and reading got tiring too. Luckily I had a friend who worked nights so I was able to have someone to talk to through the long nights.

One of my very first jobs. I was 22.  I got hired to type a 46 page newspaper.  I thought I was in training, but the regular typesetter got mad at the boss and quit all of a sudden.  Papers have to hit the street the day they promise advertisers.  So I had to typeset this paper in one day.  I worked about 24 hours straight to finish typesetting.  From 10:00 am to about 10:00 a.m. the next day.  Everybody left and I was the only one in the building with a couch up against the door.  It took me 3 days at home to recover.

Probably right around 24 hours, with nothing to keep me awake except all the excitement of whatever the heck it was.

No way can I compete with ROMOS, but I do know how he felt.

People seem to think service personell don`t get frightened and they are correct.

We get petrified and , in Romos` case "shit scared"

Training is what brings you through.

Good on you ROMOS KOTF (King Of The Flush)
