  • I need a CPAP to sleep, so naps are basically impossible for me

    But at a past job doing tech support at a web hosting company, where I was still new and assigned to the night shift, it was just me and another guy who was supposed to support me, and be the acting manager.

    At night we’d be lucky to get more than one or two calls, and maybe a handful of live chats, so we’d mostly do tickets all night.

    Well, I would. He would curl up at his desk and sleep for 7 hours, then speed through a bunch of really easy tickets (that he’d botch) in order to have respectable metrics.

    There were others in a different department who knew about this, so on at least one occasion, they drew a penis on his forehead while he slept. Even though our boss saw this, the slacker wasn’t fired, as he was one of the few who actively wanted the night shift.

    SMB3 was a revolution. SMW was an evolution.

    I personally prefer SMB3 because the controls feel tighter, where SMW sometimes feels “floaty”. But it’s a subtle difference. SMW gives you way more content, but not all of it is as good or as well-designed as the levels from SMB3 (though again, the difference is subtle.)

    They are both all-time top games, as is Mario 64.
