Evening, everyone; how's everyone doing as we enter the weekend? :grouphug:
 
OMG, adorable floofness!!

Doing well, Neb, hope you are, as well!

All good in the hood!

I keep sneezing and I just got home a little bit ago. So evening everyone!

I hate when I have sneeze attacks! :panic:


:hug:

Good afternoon guys!

Whats up @Prometheus ?

1.33 am here. Off to bed soon.

Did you sleep good?

It is because I am rostered for four days a week and one of them is only and 8 hour shift. This way I can get my 40 hours still while also having 3 consecutive days off. It is how I can study part-time while working. Although these past two weeks the wheels have fallen off the wagon. So need to turn it around next week. 😬😬

Nice, my job doesn't allow us to do that, but I totally would work four 10-hour shifts and have 3 days off every week.

I never have done it, but have had friends and family work in a warehouse where it'd be that long sometimes.

Warehouse work is hard work!

Yep! It is a distribution center. So shifts can be like this. I at least get the three days off. Due to our staffing levels some do these hours, through OT, and still work 5 days.

I was talking to a pharmacist online and they can do 20 hour shifts. She said she worked weekends but had Monday to Friday off. Haha not sure if I could handle the 20 hour shifts even if I got 5 days off. 😂😂

20 hour shifts? Insane! At least pharmacy work isn't that strenuous.

Evening, everyone; how's everyone doing as we enter the weekend? :grouphug:

Pretty good! Glad I don't have to work tomorrow or the next day.

My work has been quite inconsistent with offering shifts. They seem to go through phases when they will or won't allow it. I was declined the first time I requested it. Which might have been Karma, since when a friend was pressured into doing ten hour shifts I was giving him updates on his first 10 hour shift regarding how many seconds were left for him. I think the best was when he got to his previous shift finish time and I pretended to have forgotten and asked him, why he was still working, Then before he could answer was all, OH! That's right, you still have over 7,200 seconds to go! My bad! I forgot!
20 hour shifts? Insane! At least pharmacy work isn't that strenuous.
Yeah, I can't imagine it. It would potentially stress me out as my mind wanders like nobodies business at work. The few times I need to be consciously paying attention, even for just a few hours, stress me out hahaha. So if the 20 hour shift required a lot of dedicated concentration it would do my head in.
I'm having a day to forget, honestly, but chatting with good people helps :)
I am really sorry to hear, I hope that the rest of your day and weekend improve a lot more for you! Go PGen, gooooo!!!
Cold here and was rainy.

time to bust out the sweatpants and socks... oh annnnd

I wish your attempt to drink your hot drink will go better than mine usually do! I often totally forget about it at some point in the process of making it prior to the actual drinking.
