I worked until about 4:15 not because anyone said I had to but due to

volume of work to get done by end month. I'm finishing giving one state to another guy and picking up half of another so doing double work. This time of year is quite the conundrum because I'd love to be off but when everyone else is, I get what feels like several days worth of work done each day. I'm guessing some of you have the same experience.
