Here's a tip that will save your life. When your shitty boss asks you if you're free to work at ANY TIME when you don't wanna work, don't give them excuses, don't explain what you have going on or try to come up with a lie. YOU DON'T OWE THEM SHIT. Tell them in a very polite an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry, but i'm not available." And when those nosy bastards immediately ask, "why, what are you doing???" because they want to try to guilt-squeeze-berate-con you into doing what THEY want rather than whats good for you and then they WILL hold your answer against you.... all you say is this:
You give them an apologetic look, maybe a smile or a wince or whatever you think you can pull off, and you say, "I have some personal business that I have to take care of." And if they STILL press, tell them, "I'd rather not talk about it."
You don't need to tell them that your personal business is sitting in front of your laptop surfing youtube while bing eating ice cream. You don't need to give them all your personal life story. You don't need to come up with a reason to have time off to rest, or to say No. They are not entitled to it, and they will only use it to try and talk you into doing more work than you want to.
Be polite. Be firm. Don't tell them a damn thing. You are allowed your privacy, and its none of their damm business what you do in your off-work hours. And RESTING is a TOTALLY VALID reason to not want to work extra. Rather than explain that to a low wage boss who is being pressured by their own shitty bosses to squeeze every scrap of effort they can out of every poor sod who works there, just tell them "i'm busy, it's a personal matter," and they can kiss your ass. Because if you VOLUNTEER that info, they can weedle you, but if they DIG at your private matters, you can call HR.
