I’ve been on the receiving end of that before too, at one of the first companies I worked for. It blows, but it taught me a good lesson about what to expect from employers and where to set boundaries between work and life.
I always fail to use my vacation throughout the year so this is when I am off on Monday and Friday for 4-5 weeks. Going back to a 5 day week in January really sucks.
“Just gotta make it to Christmas” “just gotta make it til I have my bachelor’s, then I can have a more comfy job with fewer hours” “just gotta make it a few more decades til retirement”
Whatever you can tell yourself so you don’t have a mental breakdown.
Dude I know who worked his ass off, and basically lived for his job, died two days ago from a heart attack. He was 61 years old. Poor guy didn’t even make it to retirement
