ryanreactsWell, this wonderful amazing three-day weekend I didn't even ask for will be over in approximately nine hours --- and then I'll be working six nights in a row, Friday to Wednesday.
That might sound like quite a lot more "bitter" than "sweet," but two big things to keep in mind:
1. I'll get paid on Monday!
2. With October first being the final shift of a six-day work week, I'll most likely be off on October third!
Also, ZERO of these six shifts are overnights! I'm scheduled until 11:00, but will stay a little late so I can sweep & mop the kitchen as needed.
Actually, I just did the math, and with lunch breaks factored in, if I leave at 11:00 on the dot for every one of these six nights, that will be thirty-nine hours, only one less than the dreaded overtime. So I guess I should double-check about whether or not I still need to worry about the floors so much? I dunno, I'd kind of rather just continue to do them unless someone tells me not to . . .
Another sweet thing to focus on is all of the fun pakidges (books and other fun stuff) scheduled to arrive between now and Wednesday afternoon.
