Or just stop being SO damn nice and learn the word NO.

Gees. I get one night a week that I can actually go out and have a good time with friends. That night is usually Saturday night. I have not made plans for awhile as I am usually spending it studying, but right now my term just ended and the new one does not start until Monday. So I decide to actually make plans. Had them all set up, bunch of use were going to go for dinner then to a show, then to a late night coffee house:banana: . But NOfrustrated ! What happensnoway ? My phone rings. It is my boss, he really needs somebody to open the store tomorrow, and he wonders if I can do it. What do I say? "Sure John I will do it for you". So now instead of a night out with friends, I will be in bed by 8pmohwellfrustrated

^5 for you! Being a good co-worker and a dependable employee is rare. That you are willing to be a team player is probably why you are not going to be one of the people who will be looking for a new job in this tough economy. That your boss waited for your term to end to ask you to be a team player shows he likes you and now it is turn about.

I do agree with not passing on the entire evening. Life is about compromises and you need to enjoy some of your plans. I would pass on the getting drunk part. Showing up and being miserable would probably take away from doing what you got to do. AGAIN ^5 for responsible and mature. (P.S. Keep it in mind when you are asking for a raise.)

As much as I would LOVE to be able to compromise and still be able to go out tonight, it really is not doable. As I was going to be carpooling with a friend (I do not driveohwell ). So it looks like you guys are stuck with me until 8pm.bigsmile

TRust me if you lived closer it would be a done deal! You can have creepy guy that comes in JUST to hit on me. Not too mention all the other weirdos and freaks that come in there.

...better rethink your objective. I've seen so many peoples hours cut and people laid off in the last two weeks its ridiculous. Be greatful. I'm on day number 7 straight at work bucking for 14 straight days. I volunteered to drive into bad weather out west just to make a buck to get ahead. After what I've seen in the last 2 weeks I'm counting my blessings I have a job.
