That's sad.

Man, that's just crazy, your heart going through that process 16 times an hour! I really hope your doctor can fix it which your surgery so you don't have to sleep with that oxygen thingy. Never mind the thing about being single, the proper girl/woman wouldn't mind! But I can imagine it's not the most comfortable thing to sleep with?

I can't believe you don't get more time off! We have 5 weeks a year off. -And here we get more time off, because we're quite flexible. Being a small unit and such and a boss who knows it's important to get away from this place once in a while before it gets to you. With this trip in December, I've been in Denmark 5 times this year. Paid 2 of them myself. We get one free ticket from our job a year. But then they also send us off on different courses and such and then we can take some vacation time afterward so that we don't have to pay for a ticket ourselves. -And I get full salary during this one month off because I've worked too much (!). Don't know what that is called in English... (time off in lieu?). That means more shopping in Vegas!

How many hours is a normal work week in the States? In Denmark it's 37, here in Greenland it's 40. I think it's quite enough, but I also know that we're quite lucky compared to other countries.

And now I'm ranting away.
