2 hours? That sounds marvelous! Right now I get all caffeinated and then tether myself to a headset for 8 hours lol

That's why I made my work buy me a wireless headset.

That way when I'm locked in a 5 hour call for something I have no input on or care about I can at least get up and make myself a few cups of coffee

They won't give us wireless ones unless there's some kind of medical exception... The managers get them but we don't. I would buy my own but every time I try to use any of my own equipment IT freaks the fuck out about it

Health and safety

Say that and they back down.

My work take h&s super serious. He'll just today the upper management held a 90 min meeting right across lunch time that included a segment on how important it is that you get away from your PC during lunch.
