    I think she means give me a call back on a missed call.

    I hate shift work, days I have to get up at 4.30 am and invariably wake up before the alarm, on nights I never get enough sleep in the day and as for the first night ...............I end up with 4 hrs max sleep in a 24 hr period, have to try staying up later and later in days off leading up to nights but body still wakes up as if on days.........................! roll 2013 and the end of the silly season so I can find a shift free existence before it kills me
    I am responsible me, myself and I alone I am not the keeper others thoughts and words.

    I do this with my friends, we say to each other give me a phone so I know you're home safe. We don't answer, just a quick buzz to say yup, home you don't have to worry.
