A day in the life
14 years ago
Oh, we need to work saturday? I guess that ain't so bad... Wait, you want us to do 4 days of work on saturday? Hmm... I think I can do that.
Oh, I'm sorry, i misheard - 5 days of work. Now thats kinda rough, Mr. Boss.
Wait, what? Whatever isn't done today has to be done tomorrow?! But that'll be the 13th 7 day work week in a row for me!
Oh, I see... Sorry, I assumed you gave a shit. Well, hey, could I at least get my check real quick...?
Wait... Why are you laughing? What do you mean I haven't made the company enough money to be paid yet?!
I'VE BEEN WORKING 6.5 DAYS A WEEK SINCE THE FIRST OF THE YEAR! I GET NO TIME OFF! I'M DAILY BELITTLED AND TALKED DOWN TO!
AND YOU CAN'T EVEN PAY ME?!? WHY YOU INSOLENT LITTLE - Sure thing Mr. Boss, see ya first thing in the morning! =D
Lather, rinse, repeat tomorrow. I fucking love my life. I've been working about 70 hours a week with MAYBE a half day off since the first of the year... I've made $50 in that same time period. I can't get time/money to fix my truck, so during my half a day off, I'm usually forced to sit and stare at the wall. And I can't do a god damn thing about it, because I live with my boss - If I quit, he gets pissed, and i get homeless.
I'll trade ya.
