Sorry Allwyn. That does truly suck. What's tough is that it is 'normal' for you and thus slowly but surely quite draining.

Last Saturday was my first day off in 15 days of 10-15 hour days and I was about to go craZy. I slept till 10am on Saturday which is a total no-no for me - I guess I needed it.

What makes it all worse is staff members complaining about their hours - wth? Complain to your mom, not me!

Even when I don't work full days on weekends, I'll always do some work at least one of the days and I often work into the night - that doesn't bother me cause I kinda like it. 12 hour days on weekends on top of 15 hour workdays to meet a deadline turns into a massive pain in the rear though.

I can definitely sympathize with you, Allwyn. I've been keeping a crazy work schedule the last few weeks and it doesn't look like it will get any better. I was hired on a part-time basis, told to expect 12-20 hours a week. I went over 40 hours last week alone. I need to find a better job LOL

Yes that is true... last 8 years or so i been working 6 days a week... before it was more. Now what made it wost is.. traveling. I spend 3-4 hrs on traveling everday apart from 9 hrs working and sweating like hell in this hot and humid weather. And also i go out often and sometimes sleep around 3-4am. So its all really draining me.....I always feel tired

You should really try for some better job . These day no one seem to happy with there job... its either salary... or timing.. or colleagues... or job itself. Its seem really hard to find a job where u really like......
