Actually, it's my RDO today. So far I've been getting plenty of rest. All the senoir guys are pulling the overtime, and the really really new guys are stuck in the holiday details. I had only 3 hour of overtime this week. The first one for 2 hours was for a school condition where the Yashiva girls were being harassed by a junior high school, so they sent myself and another officer to the effected station to keep an eye out on the dismissal. Suposidly this made the news the day before, and I'm guessing the parents didn't let them ride the trains, because I only saw a handful of the girls.
The second tour I had a truck hit one of our station overpasses and get stuck, so I ended up directing traffic while the aired down the tires to get the rig out.
Other than that, it's just been regular tours where I'd get called to a platform where a bag/knapsack was left unattended.
I think I'm tired today because I got to sleep in [:D]
