Time Off Finally

Quote of the day n for all the ages:
...

"All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, and desire."
...
- Aristotle
384 BC - 322 BC

I think he left out "stupidity" n "the ability to move n speak" ...

The stupid thing I did this week was let a manager talk me into coming in for a late half-day on my day off, for an eighth day in a row (split pay-week) because some one had quit. I ended up getting involuntarily roped into another nine-hour-shift without having brought my second water bottle or any food. I finally got out at five am., too fried to do anything during daylight hours on this (would've been my second) day off. Then I got screwed out of overtime pay for the day by being told I already had too much for the week n have to take a different previously scheduled day off. GGggrrrh!
...
It's bad enough they keep switching which days I get off every week, so I can't make any plans with anyone, but I can't even count on the scheduled days they give me on paper which are received only one day prior to the begining of the next week!
...
It'll prob be awhile before I give in to that particular plea for help again.
It was one of my most frustrating days there yet. The topper was nothing needed was where it belonged in order to do the job efficiently, cause I didn't get to set-up the work area n came in later on, n at the end I had to clean up a huge mess I didn't make, which had I been on that position, wouldn't have been so bad. The new people there who were supposed to clean that area just left, obliviously assuming they were done without asking.
...
Not remotely the easy, short, day I was talked into!
...
This evening there was a red-ball gorgeous sunset goin on. I drove down to the Maritime Academy after errands to take some new pretty shotz, then I realized the instant-cam's auto-flash kept going off n don't know if any of them will come out! I wasn't trying to turn the button on, so guess that's why it was so cheap... next time I'll tape something over the bulb- but I bemoan missed great photo ops!
Never mind the wasted time n energy issues.
...
I hope your week is goin way better than mine,
(n mine starts gettin better) !
