Power is down from 5 AM to 5 PM. It already started so I am using my mobile data. We don't have wired internet until 5 PM. My work is not yet done but I have to be logged off after an hour. See you later when the power is restored.

That is a long power interruption you have. I just hope that you can tolerate the weather as it is quite hot and humid today.

I went to the mall. I cannot even lay my back on my bed because it was very hot.

Sorry to know that you have a power interruption at your place. I hate power cuts.

@jobelbojel we don't have power cuts these days here. I remember we used to have when I was a child. Many days we have faced power failures for more than a day.

@sjvg1976 with installation going on, there will be interruptions along the way. Hopefully, it won't be scheduled during my work hours.

Usually we also have 12 hour power interruption, from 6 in the morning up to 6 in the evening, and sometimes extends up to 9... =(

That's uncool I dislike brownouts. I'm thankful, that we don't have one today. Hopefully, it would be like this throughout the day.

Don't you log book if it's blackout? In the university when there's power interruption, and if about time to go home we'll just logbook and creditable for the entire duration of work.

@cacay1 I was unable to work from 5 am to 9 am. My out is 9 am. I think I will be tagged as undertime and will cause me not to get my attendance bonus worth 1K pesos.
