"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

on the other hand, IT'S THE WEEKEND

I will do nothing and I will feel true joy, or existential dread. Depends on the day.

Better than being laid off right before Thanksgiving after almost a decade at the company 🙃

Sorry, that sucks. Loyalty never seems to go in the other direction, does it?

Too true. Thanks though Picard, that means a lot coming from such a prolific shit poster.

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Maybe nip that in the bud next year and just continue it through January

I can't think of a worse month to nearly double your workload from the previous

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

Yeah, but that's for future me to deal with.

No need to worry about next week until your alarm goes on monday.

Jokes on you. I'm off for 4 days!

Just gotta make it to the weekend.
