I should have clarified my point yesterday by Garrinka 2014-02-08 08:46:50
and for that I apologize.. the point wasn't about valentine's day in and of *itself* ..

it was work and holidays in general.. because of my being the "recent addition" .. (longest in the office time wise but not longest in the company I work at)..

I *always* get stuck covering before and after vacation days.. since besides the new hire.. I have the lowest vacation count in the office.. also.. due to all of my medical issues I have to bank time for time off due to doctor's appts etc..

so I can't "tag" time around holidays for time off.. so 95% of the time.. since one of us has to be there.. I get stuck covering the office around the holidays.. and I'm getting sick of it.. I *always* get to be the last person leaving then..

and it is getting really *really* old.. and frustrating.. and it isn't going to get any better because the person with the showing up issues now has enough vacation to dodge work *and* take time off around the holidays..

I can't tell you how many times I've had to try and wrangle time off for my son's birthday..

and to top it off when I *do* get vacation time.. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten called in on it.. that has kind of gotten better recently but that is *only* because of my surgery..

just getting fed up in general.. they are so used to me "not having a life" and covering everyone's arse that when I *do* have a life.. it gets to be an issue...

so that is it in a nutshell .. tired of missing out on my life for a job .. getting to a point that it's becoming a major problem..

Bellator suggested getting hired on at his place.. but the only things that are open would make it extra hard (conflicting shifts) or working *every weekend* which is what I want to move away from..

just trying to figure things out...
