I just did the math. When I get off shift at 0600, I'll be at 44 hrs for the work week. (We have our pay period start on Thursday, so yeah. )
Then another three days of 8 hour shifts, and that shit is all overtime because I cracked 40 hrs a minute ago.
Money is nice but I'm so, so tired. I'm over 50, I need my sleep dammit! Oh, this doesn't include the hours I spent trying to arrange shift coverage and by Mars and St. Michael I WILL get paid for that time because lack of sleep makes me petty and vindictive.
Gah, all I want right now is to be someplace dark and cool, with soft pillows and a comfy mattress and someone snuggling me and petting me until my brain shuts down so I can sleep.
Four more hours, my relief gets here. Then I drive home, nap for 5 hours. Drive back to site.
