At today's end I will have had only two days off in a 5 week period. 13 on, 1 off is the rule. This isn't meant to be a brag. I value my time off and did not want all of this OT.
Of course there was no one to cover this weekend, everyone else is very busy as well. I sucked it up, but I'm extremely exhausted.
My department has finally posted a position for a 3rd man to help in my discipline… 5 years we've been asking for it.
Hopefully things get better. I've felt trapped under the work load for a while. Even more so by feeling the weight of being a sole provider. Decent healthcare and benefits are hard to come by, but is it worth this toll on the body?
I've enjoyed this subreddit, and just wanted to vent. I guess I don't have a real point to make here.
Happy Sunday everyone.
