Short Straw

I definitely drew the short straw at work this month.

Con-I just worked six days in a row.
Pro-I just had three days off.
Con-I start seven days in a row tomorrow.
Pro-I have three days off over Easter.
Con-I have another six days in a row after that.
Con-I work 6 of 8 weekend days in April.
Con-We're closed Easter Sunday so no one works.  I have one Saturday off.
Con-Really, I work six out of seven weekend days and I close five out of the six I work.
Con-I close all three Saturday's I work.  No one closes more than once.
Con-I close two of the three Sunday's I work.  No one works or closes more than once.
Con-I close eleven times, including Sunday's in April.  I only work twenty days.

Pessimistic?  Optimistic?  Realistic?

I wonder if I did something wrong that I don't know about.

See you in May.

Are your schedules done by hand? Bummer! At least you have a job that you don't totally hate.

I know how that feels! Trust me! 4 out of the 5 years at the daycare that's how I felt!

The boss does them. Yes, it is a bummer. And Meg, if you got jobbed that much on your schedule I'm sorry I never knew beforehand. But at least you didn't work weekends much less work at night on weekends. That leaves me about one and a half days (Saturday and Easter) to spend with Katy. And I think that that fact is the worst of all.

No I didn't have to work weekends or late at night which was good. But I had to work until 6 a lot and got home at 7 which was fine until I had Mattingly and then it wasn't so great. Hope next month is better!!!!!!
