I will be very happy when July 31st gets here. That’s when the extra $600 a week for unemployment finally expires. That may sound horrible, but I’m on the opposite end of that. I have worked through this entire thing, and the only applicants I’ve gotten for my critically short staffed store, have been applying for the unemployment requirement that they do so. Have only had one day off since November 14th. ONE. Plus, I’m already on schedule for a minimum of 80 hours a week, and if anyone calls off, I get to cover it. Because I don’t have enough staff. So my average work week is more like 90 hours or better. Awful damn tired of people working the system.

Egads. Hope you go from understaffed to just staffed soon.

We should have, between full and part time, 15 people. We have 8.

I am so fucking tired of double shifts. ugh

Find a better gig? IIRC, you’ve been on double shifts ever since I joined the server (about eight years now).
-
The double shifts are off an on. it’s part of what happens when you’re a manager in retail ya know. I’m salaried, so no OT fer me
-
Oh, gods, been there, done that. I pointed out to one of my staff that they in fact made more money than me since they got overtime and I was salaried. It’s across all industries, I think, and it truly sucks.
-
Keep yer fingers crossed that we get staffing issues finally settled for where I work. It has been BRUTAL. Sixty hours worked since Saturday. And I’m not done.

I feel your pain. Training the newbies – who are younger than my children. As if the work wasn’t exhausting enough! Good Luck DG!

Yep, get paid OT. But, it would be NICE to be awake to enjoy it! Ah well. Going into my third hell week, and then things should be evening out a bit.

You can always go with the American thing and do a turkey. Or an old hand passing down an object (a candle? a torch?) to a smaller, younger hand, thus symbolizing the keeping alive of the tradition.
-
*ponders* Well, those are good suggestions. I'm sure I'll come up with something though, lol.
-
When considering, don't forget the rest of the prompts we have this month too *winks*
-
methinks I need to turn in to a duck <_

I know how tough it is to have to do that, no matter how necessary it is. As long as he had a good life, that’s the important thing.
-
Sympathies, DG… you gave him a good life and a compassionate ending. I hope as much for all of us...

Sorry to hear it. It’s always hard

Do you like this job? (Just asking, because I’d suggest finding one that lets you have some time off...)

Seriously, this is how the USPS ended up making “going postal” a household phrase.

We’ve mowed at least 5 times since April 20th.
