I asked my supervisors to have two days off a week, and work 12 hours per day/5 days a week instead of 10/6. I need more down time and I need to be at home.

They told me they'd think about it and try to work something out, but "we can't guarantee it". Next week I have to drive 45 mins. for a 4 hour shift. What a waste of my gasoline and time......grrrrrrr.

Sooooooooo, next week I have an interview Thursday here in town and on the 27th I have one with a restaurant for being a General Manager like I am used to. I'm tired of working 60 hours a week hourly for what I used to do in 45-50 on salary.

Now I feel guilty that I'm even doing this - like I'm doing something bad behind their backs. Geez, you'd think I was 6 years old or something.

If I huddled under my covers like I would do if I was alone, the bills wouldn't get paid and my son would have no home........so, I really have no choice. If I was alone, no one would ever see me.

Btw, hope you are doing well, and thanks for responding.
