Organization Chat

[NateDog]

How're we doing org chat? I started playing Expedition 33 a bit ago and I'm loving it tbh.

I'm doing alright ta bk. how're you?
I spent the day yesterday in Sheffield for my girlfriend's brother's 30th birthday which was nice
Had an absolute mare getting there tho
Work have put me up in a cottage for accommodation (with 4 other guys I work with...as if we're all bezzie mates on a staycation. Very stupid.)
Everyone but me had gone home
Storm starts in the night
Power out in the morning
Electric showers so no shower
Stood on a massive spider barefoot while walking around in the dark
Cottage is a drive away from the nearest village and I don't drive so I try and book an uber or a taxi
None will come to get me
Trees have fallen down blocking the road to the cottage
I walk 40 minutes along nothing but country lanes
Get drenched
Lots of changes on the journey many of which require waiting around for a while outside in the howling wind while my clothes are soaked
I eventually get to Sheffield 6 1/2 hours after I left the cottage

Then today I get a call from my colleague saying we've been moved to another accomodation effective immediately so he's been in my room and packed all my stuff up himself to move it. Makes me feel kind of weird lol and I also hope he didn't just chuck them in the back of his van as I have a new MacBook and my PS5 with me 

The mad long journey does mean I've finally finished Metal Gear Acid though!

How regularly are you away from home due to work? Seems like you're constantly being moved around. No idea how you manage to play anything or even have a life.

I've only really stayed away for work a few times really. I tend to work in and around London so just commute from home when I am, it's only if a job is happening too far outside of London that they put me up. I try to go home on weekends if possible when I'm away, even if the journey is something ridiculous like it is right now (5 1/2 hour journey from North Wales to London). It can feel a bit lonely otherwise.

I have brought my PS5 with me but so far there's only been one TV in a shared room and I'm not about to start hogging said TV to play Death Stranding 2 in front of the people I work with

I can only imagine. "Dude why is this guy's ass out all the time and why does he have handprints all over it"
