I wish I had something cool to say, but all I got is - I, in company with several other people I work with, had to work until 4:30PM and have to be back at work at 4AM. Legally there only has to be 8 hours between shifts. How do you get 8 hours of sleep when you have to, at minimum, drive home and take a shower in the morning? That doesn't even count eating.

*is slightly annoyed* but I can't afford to take the time to be really annoyed.

-----------------------
*I know that they weren't giving me only 8 hours, I had 11.5, a positively decadent amount of time, I'm actually kind of more annoyed for other people.

Ack, that sucks! Hopefully they'll appreciate you for it and you'll be rewarded with a fancy schmancey job some day.

It seems unlikely. The next person up in the chain gets more stress than I would know what to do with.

8 hours is a bit mean. It's 11 here! Demand better of your government...

Ha. ha ha. Believe me, I shouldn't even be complaining here, someone might read this, rat on me, and I could be on the shit list. It's happened before. One of my friends nearly got pushed out when she copied down the Ombudsman's number for a few people.
