Stuffs.

So work has been long and exhausting lately. I worked 48 hours within the time span of 4 days.  You know when you learn about exploitation of labour in Sociology? Well I haven't felt this way since I worked at Tim Hortons. You know your job is bad when you understand the sociology lessons. Rather than delve into the reasons that I'm currently hating my job, I'll just say this: I'm tired of them not asking for us to work longer hours, to stay later, and to skip breaks. These things are not okay. I am willing to do certain things when asked, but it makes me mad when they go about it without asking us and just expecting it. A couple of us admitted to going home and crying out of exhaustion this weekend, so I'm in good company.  So right now I'm just trying to hang on for dear life. I love the girls I work with, and I need the money in order to do a social work diploma in September. If it weren't for those things, I would have quit over the weekend.  It's getting hard but I'm just trying to push through it.
