You know you have been staffing CM too much when...

Post by Snypehunter007 » 07 Jan 2017, 05:25

Seeing the similar "You know you're on CM too much when..." post, I thought I might make one for staff both former and current.

Funny, I had a dream about jumping on the forums when I was on vacation. Seems being away from CM for about 5 days was too much.

For that matter, too much? More like "The proper amount".
TLDR: Go back and read it. I spent time writing that, ya know.

You start having nightmares about convoluted metarush situations where you're the only staff online.

When you have a word document for common questions (with multiple variations, so you don't sound like a robot).

Have a folder somewhere with logs and a notepad+ app still open that has around 6 or 7 different entries tabs open....

however was still a pretty fun experience
