I just got a whole bunch of shifts for work today. And that includes me working on Christmas eve, Boxing Day, New years eve and New Years day. When I tell people that, they seem very happy for me and go "OOO AWESOME MONEYYYY". But the thing is, I don't care about the money. I don't care that I get double and a half the pay to work on those days. Those are days that my whole family is at home, even my dad (who is never at home), and I just want to spend it with them.
Leave alone those days, even just normal days. I have been given so many shifts I barely get any days off. And now it just doesn't seem like holidays anymore. If I could, I would honestly cancel half of the shifts I have been rostered on. I just want to hang out with my friends and do fun stuff. I know this might seem really unappreciative of me; but don't get me wrong, I am so grateful to have a job. I need money to live. But I don't want to live for money you know?
I feel like I am out of the loop. I just don't get how people are so happy to be working so hard and miss out on things. Is the money really worth it all?
