I kept yawning during our family zoom call cuz I'm tired. I know they mean well but my family just saying "Be happy about your overtime money" feels so invalidating. Yes, okay, the money is good but damn it, I wish somebody would send me a care package or something!! I always send care packages when any of them are having a rough go. I mean it's as simple as a couple of clicks on amazon.com for pete's sake lol. Or even a simple, "aww, you do look tired" would have felt better. I'm tired getting up so early and having to take calls, do my normal job, do live chat (depending on the day, and sometimes doing more than one job in the same day). I think next week I'll skip the zoom call and catch a little nap instead during my lunch break. Hopefully the mandatory overtime will be done with on 1/31. I know last year the overtime continued into March or April, but I think if I remember right it wasn't mandatory that entire time. I don't remember how long it stayed mandatory for my team. I'm waiting for more work to be sent to me right now so have a tiny break.

Rant over as the work I requested just popped in.
