Scheduling · 9:58pm Jun 30th, 2016
*juggling night shift and day shift*
*Literally starting to fall asleep behind the wheel because of how tired I am*
*Fuckiamsotiredallthetime*
"Oh don't worry, this will be the last week you'll have to juggle the shifts, we've got a guy taking over your position."
"Yay!"
*two weeks later*
"So hey, the guy who took your position is going up north to another position. I know it's like a day's notice, but can you work nights and days again for a while? We'll pay you time and a half and stuff."
"...Sure."
Internally:
See you next blog, if I don't fall asleep behind the wheel and crash and die in a fatal car accident, that is.
Don't die, your children need you.

I have no children
Doesn't your company realize that overworking you is...I don't know...
Dangerously unsafe?

So let me get this straight, the guy worked there for two weeks and then got sent somewhere else?
Wow...

Well being that I'm a security guard, most of my posts aside from this one involve me sitting down and waiting for someone to arrive so I can see if they're supposed to be there or not. and when I'm sitting there I'm usually watching a movie, so... 'overworking'.
It's really just the hours and how they fuck with my sleep schedule so hard.

Pretty much. My scheduler's a genius.
4060591 Ah, security guard. So, human scarecrow then?
I'm pretty sure vastly more security guards die from falling asleep behind the wheel than actual robbers.
Good luck, dude.

Probably. Following that logic, my scheduler should probably be arrested for security guard murder.
Thanks for the concern, though I've found that rousing my friends and family out of bed at 6am to talk to them on the drive home seems to keep me awake.
