10-6 or 7:30-4 every weekend. I find it funny when my peers in college complain about work loads yet only work three 4-hour shifts a bookstore/food place and sleep in till 2 on the weekends. ---

Ugh, coming up on the one weekend a quarter (quarter end) when I get stuck working weekends and nights. Least I can do most of the extra from home usually, but 1 80-hour week followed by tons of downtime FTL. ---

I am currently on a 3 week rotation, where my days off go Fri-Sat, Sat-Sun, Mon-Sun. I’m kind of ok with those days off, since in the middle I get 3 days straight off, but I hate that I work 4 until midnight. Hopefully that’ll change soon… Been with the company over 3 years now, this recession has stalled everyone from moving up anywhere… ---
