Yesterday was incredibly busy. And to make matters worse, I discovered
I've been skipping out on work early. Hours are 9-5:30, not 9-5. It's
still supposed to be 40 hours a week though. Not sure who they hired
to do the math there.....

After work I had to rush out and pick up tae kwon do equipment from
freecycle. I hope there's a uniform in the box. I haven't had time to
go through it yet.

From there I rushed to knitting. I was half an hour late. There's not
enough time in the day.

When I got home, I was telling ben about my day while trying to fall
asleep. We got into a fight over something really stupid. I'm still
pretty upset. I cried so much last night that I actually passed out.
Maybe I'll feel better once ben comes home. :(

This morning my dog tried to cheer me up by being incredibly cute. It
was nice of her to try. She's a good dog. (Sometimes.)

I need a drink of water. All that crying dehydrated me. I hate crying hangovers.

Hours are 9-5:50, not 9-5. It's
still supposed to be 40 hours a week though. Not sure who they hired

Maybe something involving lunch breaks?

I'm guessing the 50 minutes are your 30 minute lunch break and two 10 minute breaks (i.e. smoking breaks) in the morning and afternoon. : /

Oops. That should be 9-5:30, not 5:50.

30+10+10=50

Though I think it's a bit odd to ask you to stay until 5:50... Even places that are strict about hours worked and breaks and stuff usually don't take those 10 minute breaks out of your working time. : / And I've never heard of a 9:00-5:50 work day- 5:30 sure, but 5:50 is just kind of a weird time to end the day. ^^;

The day ends at 5:30. I just can't type.

Ah, sorry. XD *is dumb* Yeah, a lot of places count out your lunch breaks. : / Like I work from 8:30-5:00, which is 8.5 hours, minus the .5 hour lunch break ends up 40 hours a week. : ( A lot of the guys here work from 8:00-5:30 and have lunch at their desks... > < Long day.

I don't think that's fair. Lots of people work through their lunch hours anyway.

Yeah, it does suck if you end up working through lunch. > < Not me, though- I'm just reception (and nothing says "great business" like someone scarfing down food when you come in or answering the phone with a mouthful of sandwich! : D).
