First of almost two straight weeks of 12 hour shifts.

NOT looking forward to that…

Morning all, work again for me…

A little PSA for next year, don’t buy your Christmas presents too early, lol (not my kid, assuming just a meme)

Good morning, countdown to New Years Eve, and New Years Day 2026

Afternoon all!

Managers do have to work the same hours as us.

The whole sales department is here open-to-close for the week between Xmas and New Years.

But then my assistant is off the week after that so I'll be working 11-12 hour shifts then too. I've worked 3 jobs before, with 90 hour weeks including 23 hour shifts some days, but it's still damn annoying...

I used to work 12 hours days for months at a time while in the navy for $178.00 every two weeks in 1980

THANK YOU for serving ----I missed draft 1970 less than 100 numbers left ----all close friends that went in gone now

Thanks Barry.

There were no jobs around here before I went into the navy and with my luck no jobs when I got out. I couldn't even collect unemployment after. They said I quit my job. Then they had the guts to tell me I could have re-enlisted. They didn't like my response to that. I asked the guy behind the counter at the unemployment office. Why didn't you join the service. I didn't wait for a response.
