I need around 7. Not terrible imo. I have been having the weirdest reverse effect on my tiredness of lack thereof at the end of the day. I start really tired and whe I finish I am not tired at all.

i can function on 3-4 hours, but obviously, i'd prefer more than that. who wouldn't? i usually get 5-7 hours of sleep on weekdays and 8+ on weekends, though.

i used to work on no sleep as well... not fun :laugh: and that was back before i started drinking coffee.




that feel when you want to skip the school part and just get a real job already :( luckily with business admin i can find something i'll enjoy in the field that's less boring than accounting.

I used to want school to end and work a job.

Then I get a job. I now miss school, seeing my friends every day and doing stupid kid things.

Can't do both ? All my friends work in construction, I work 40 hours a week and go to school, yet we find time for eachothers. Obviously, we rarely get the whole gang to meet, but when we do it's the best time we have in months.

With three kids, it becomes hard to do. I still have my best friend from high school, who I see on a weekly basis but hanging out is no longer a daily ritual.

I do spend some time with a good group of people, but it's due to a wrestling promotion I am a part of and my family is always in attendance. As you described it, it's always a blast when that day comes. But yeah, with a family my days are spent mostly around them when I'm not at work.

Hah, kids.

Yeah, I don't have kids :laugh: This might change some things.

Then again, me and my friends are a tightly knit group of people, we have a facebook conversation that all 6 of us post daily on and we've had it for 5 years :laugh: The cringe worthy pictures and stories on that conversation though

Have to share with some folks...

I work as a Notary in a small rural office. I'm not an associate or shareholder, just an employee, really. Months of May, June, July are the busiest season, so I tend to work extra hours these months (something like 45h a week instead of the 37,5h I'm supposed to.

Now, one of the support staff members is gone on pregnancy leave since April 1st and my boss didn't see fit to hire someone, "because the busy season was ahead, so no time to train someone"...

I won't contest that I'm usually the lazy type, but living 30 min. from the office, I hate coming home around 7:30, 8 (and that's when I'm not going to the grocery store or such), but I think it's normal that in those conditions, I value my weekends immensely. This morning, my boss asked (read: TOLD) me to work on Saturday. Considering my GF moved in last month and that I haven't had a single day to myself since (she starts working this Saturday), is it normal that I think it's rude and inconsiderate from my boss to ask me this?

I mean, I know I'm not with the government, but is it really that much to expect weekends to be offlimits regarding work?

Anyways, sorry for the long post, just felt like sharing something that's got me upset since this morning.

I felt the same way when I did my INTERNSHIP at an office. They made me feel bad for not working overtime.... I hate it when bosses do that.
