Working weekends: Blows

My last day off this month was Labor Day. Usually I have Saturdays off unless im nice and pic one up for someone. God Bless the trash that shop Wal-Mart and keep the import business jumpin. And all those buying Case New Holland machinery.

So many people in this thread I just want to shake and say “GO TO COLLEGE”

haha

Thought I would point that out.:rx3:

Or move out of WNY…

i work 11pm to 7am with sunday night and monday night off. working friday and sat nights suck… buts it nice to be able to watch football

Wow… suddenly my job doesnt seem all that bad

8-4:30 every weekend.

Fuck this nonsense.

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.

ill take some of your hours??

I went to college and still work shitty hours

M-F 7:30-5-6:00 Most Saturdays, and I worked 10 hrs today because I have a bid due Monday @11:00. I am salary too. :suicide:

Who do you work for?

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.

Anastasi Trucking. They are a large site work contractor. I am a Project Manager/ Estimator. The Yahoo data center has been a pain in the ass lately.

I didn’t bother reading the thread, but fuck off, because I’ve been working weekends since I was 16.

College isn’t for everyone just an FYI

anyways, owning retail stores=working 7 days a week if you want things run the right way. However I love waking up and going in to them, so no complaints here.

not that easy lol. i went to college for 3 years, changed my major 3 times, and wasted about 10 grand, and i didnt find what i wanted to do.

so i stopped going to school and am working retail now. went from part time to store manager in a year and a couple months so i think im doing okay for myself. so therefor, i work weekends dealing with canadian hockey moms that are ignorrant and dont give a fuck about anything except their bitchy little prick-ass kids. i get a weekend off a month.

Aircraft fly 24/7 365 days a year. So I work all kinds of stuff. And I work most holidays. :frowning:

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…

What does college have to do with anything?
