Angola Prison

It actually exists! Laughing out loud

As I am currently sitting in Angola, locked on an onshore oil base for 28 days at a time, not allowed to leave camp while I'm here, working 12 hours a day, practically 7 days a week, ...I'm sure you can see why we sometimes refer to this place as the "Angola Prison".

(The upside of that, though, is that we do get 28 days parole from time to time)

Rather ironic to see that "Angola Prison" actually exists on Wikipedia.

Here's a slightly modified quote out of the article:

Angola is *snip* estimated to be one of the largest prisons, *snip* with 5,000 inmates and over 1,000 staff. Located on an 18,000 acre (73 km²) plantation...

They almost have it better off there... they don't have to be up at 5am every morning!

HAH! ..like you are ever up

HAH! ..like you are ever up at 5am every morning!

Touché

Eish...
Yeah well.... I really try to be up at 5am.... but I'm too much of a nocturnal person. I do, however, make it to the office at 6am on most days....and... at least I am at work after lunch, unlike certain people who sleeps (siesta) until 14:30! It's supposed to be a powernap not a hibernation. Laughing out loud
