I've done for the past 10 out of 24 hours. Yeah. What are we supposed to do? You are
supposed to go home and get some sleep. Yeah. And we've got it covered for tonight it sounds
like but we might need you tomorrow. Ah. Okay. They put us on 12-hour shifts to eight-to-eight.
Oh. So we're covered throughout today and Pat and Kristin and Bob are working eight-to-eight
tonight. Okay. It's all normal regular scheduled ship, right? Nobody's on overtime there? I mean
Bob or Pat or Kristin? No, no. We're, they shipped us here now. Well, yeah, I know but
I mean nobody's had to come in for us or something. No, no. Well, Kristin, we had this weekend off.
Yeah. You guys are on days off. Yeah. Okay. But we're good to go for tonight then? Yep.
Okay. Yeah. But I think they just wanted to hear just in case to take breaks. Yeah, no kidding.
Okay. I just wanted to know, I guess, um, did Pete leave you guys a message or something that
we were supposed to be called at a certain point or something? No. Okay. I was just kind of
wondering why we got called at four o'clock in the morning. Um, because they started evacuating
all of the Central Park Riverside and, um, Lincoln Park. I thought the bike was gonna go.
Oh. They sounded all the sirens. They called back all after the officers. You're kidding. No. Oh,
my God. Hell broke loose. Oh, wonderful. Yeah. Okay. We're calmer now but I think they got
through where I need you. Yeah. Well, because Kathy called back she doesn't really remember
what Pat said. Really? Well, yeah. It was four o'clock in the morning. We had just gone to bed.
Oh, my God. Are you drunk? We didn't say we were drunk. I just said we just went to bed.
Okay. Okay. We'll see you later. All right. Bye. Bye.
