Antiwork

Can you do any overtime this week?

“What about Wednesday? No? Thursday? No? Tonight? Well, if you change your mind, just come in.” I work overnights, filling shelves in a supermarket. The work is heavy and fast paced. The 1st day off each week is spent in bed recovering, the 2nd is spent feeling crappy because of disrupted sleep and the 3rd (when I have a 3rd) is spent dreading going back to work tomorrow. No, I do not want your overtime, I want my body to stop aching.
