I just got a phone call asking if I can go in for training to open the store. I have to be there for 4:30am. I work tonight until 10pm. By the time I get home and relax a bit it will be a 11:30pm. CRAP this sucks! I like sleep. Sorry for venting But this really sucks to me!

I can't tell him no. Cause I need to open on Tuesday and I have been asking for more hours. Just did not think that it was going to happen like this.

Work does suck. Hard to believe what people expect from you these days. That's why I'm telling them to shove it and opening up a tiki bar on the beach. Just mix Pina Coladas all days and sling a few beers for locals/tourists while hanging out by the ocean. You in?

Awe you do not need to be sorry. But thank you And I know I will get through it LB, I just hate when my boss does this to me. He knows I end up screwing up little things. Oh that will be his problem I guess

Tell him your not Superman! Your Superwoman! Thats usually the way they work you- when you ask for more hours. They don't think about sleep. I know someone who works 7 days a week 8 and sometimes 12 hours a day. They don't have much of a life. Work is their life. (((Whisper)))

Hmmmmmmmm I hope he is going to pay you double time? LMFAO My boss is the cheapest person you can ever meet! The only thing that will happen is that my pay will go up for two days. But once I am back on night it will go down to my normal pay
