Nothing is worse than being on salaried pay and having to work an extra day a week for the past 2 weeks. Just last week, everyone else in the office was 'sick', who knows if it was legit or not.. but I was to distribute 12,000 flyers on a citywide home repair project. Dividing those between 8 people wouldnt be too bad, but it was just me. Talk about a waste of freakin time. I was very tempted to go to the nearest air force base, commandeer a C-130, load the cargo bay with those blasted flyers, cruise over the city, and open the cargo hold. Damn, I love to drive but even I am sick of it now!

That sucks man.

 

I doubt that your co-workers were "sick". I think lazy is a better word to use.

 

This happens often where I work as well. I've had to cover for one of my co-workers who has been missing a lot of work lately due to car/housing situations. I try not to complain too much because my boss said that he'd give me the highest raise possible in November.

 

Just hang in there man. I worked 75 hours this week and 6 days instead of 5 and I can definitely relate with getting sick of driving to work.

Damn bro, 75 hours?? Even when I was doing heavy machine labor I NEVER had a shift that long, but the good thing is the boss treats you well and dosent pull this stuff on you all the time.

My boss at this job is just the coolest boss I've ever had. Really rad dude. You'd like him.

 

I actually feel redeemed after working so many hours. The folks where I work are starting to feel like family sometimes and I feel that some of them are starting to "warm up" to me.
