A Big Ball of Nasty

Man, I am in a nasty mood today. Nothing major, just a bunch of little normally-not-an-issue-but-all-together-UGH!!! annoyences. I hate these 10 hour days Im working. HATE THEM!!! I do get 3 days weekends out of it now, but Fridays are the days I have to work at home to play catch up because Im so damn tired when I get home during the week. How is that enjoying a day off? Cleaning? I think not. I enjoy getting off work at 3pm and being home all afternoon to get stuff done. I dont get to do that now.

5:30 get up

6:20 leave for work

7am-5pm - work

5:45- arrive home, cook dinner, laundry, pick up, rush around to get everything ready for the next day

7pm maybe sit down and relax

8pm asleep on the couch

Yeah 10 hour days suck. Im way to used to having my extra time in the afternoon. If I get a day off, I want to spend it with my boys, not playing catch up and watching shitty day time tv.

All this crap doesnt even touch the tip of the iceburg with everything thats going on here at work.

DrinksBeerPizza To anyone that reads my complaint file today.

Re: A Big Ball of Nasty

  • Sorry your having a bad day. Can you go back to 8 hour days?
  • Nope. Its manditory. All offices are closed on Fridays. There wouldnt even be anyone here to open the building for me to get in. I think its going to be a drink in the back yard with a book kind of night.
  • That sucks. I couldn't do it. I'm sorry you have to do this but maybe, eventually, you'll get used to it.
  • I've had coworkers that do 10 hours day and if I worked closer to work, I think I'd totally do it. But with being forced into having the duty of stopping at my gram/great aunts everyday for the past few years, my day is exactly as long as yours 530am-545pm and thats working 8 hours! I can only imagine how I'd feel if I worked 10. Maybe some day. ;-/

    But I do have say I feel your pain.. there must be something in the air today cause I'm in a pissy mood today also! and over stupid stuff!

    They were going to over 4/40 here at work and I kept telling some of my coworkers that it's not as good as it seems!  I'm having a hard enough time with the 9 hour days, let alone 10!

  • Sorry for the bad day :( I really hope it get better.
