I really need to have a good talk with my boss. Right now I'm in the middle of 8 days straight on the work schedule. I'm already exhausted. Oh well. At least I'm getting paid, right? (Yeah, so I should probably be getting paid overtime, except that a new week started yesterday)

Most of the time I can't even think to answer people's questions. It's amazing how fast I went from wanting to help everyone as best I could to just thinking, "Screw it...I'm tired."

It sounds like you need a new job.

Hmm...didn't you just start this job? Can't really call in sick, but perhaps you should speak to your boss regarding how many hours you are capable of working and still staying sane.

*fondly remembers his last day off, June 21st*

*looks forward to his next day off, July 25th*

Kids, you think they'd have the energy.

You guys remind me of that commercial where the drug company rep is talking about how great it is that Americans never take vacations, because it's doing wonders for his business. [Razz]

Wow, I've never been accused of taking too few vacations before.

But I guess I only took six months off last year, and only three off so far this year. Though spending August in Ireland this year oughtta bump up my average. [Razz]
