I'm really hoping scores are coming out tonight. Otherwise, I have to show up at work tomorrow at 6:30 AM at the hospital. I then go to my second job, where I will be working until 10 PM. What's worse, if I get a bad score, I'm essentially stuck at work for 16 hours until I can get out of there, only to have to show up for work the next day at 8.

I'm also a big fan of the intro to Office Space where the nerdy dude is jamming in his car about being a tough mofo, a black dude walks by, and he turns down the radio and locks the car doors. Pretty funny stuff.

That movie is 100% true and 100% fantasy for anyone who has ever worked in the cubicle jungle. Ah! I hate those things with an irrational passion.
Seriously, the best thing about working a job like that is being able to put on your best flu voice, calling in sick, and going to the beach for the day. When I knew I was leaving my job, I'd just call up friends when my alarm went off, ask them if they wanted to call in sick, and we'd all just hang out in the sun and and get paid for doing it. One day we had 16 people who all called in sick across 3 counties.
I didn't feel all that bad about it, as these people used me. They basically had an office system set up where I had to work ovetime for free or face a major reprimand from a non-direct supervisor who actually had more power than my direct supervisor.
I just made sure they followed the law, one way or the other.
