Work today

I've been called in to work today. They called me at 8.40am, to see if I could start at 9, even though they apparently knew last week that I'd be needed today but someone forgot to call me. Right now I'm sitting at the bus stop. Obviously there's not a chance in hell that I'll get there by 9, given that it's after 9 now, but I might be able to make it in by 10, if the bus isn't running late.
