We go again

With having my weekend at the start of the week whilst everyone else is at work. Followed by four days of working evenings. Obviously there has been very little gaming this week, none in fact. This weekend I had to cancel the planned D&D session due to the fact I’d be working.

If I also tell you I’ve been finishing at midnight each day so far. Plus one of those days saw me starting at 9:30am (for a bloody long day). You’d be right in thinking I’m feeling a tad tired.

But I’m taking any opportunity at the moment to do overtime. Well overtime that fits in with my scheduled shifts.

With the new overtime system at work, plus the number of hours the store has available being cut. I’m not guaranteed the minimum number of hours I need a week to meet my bills.

So when overtime shifts come up that I’m able to do, I do them. Even if it means a longer working day. I need to have that cushion in case I have a week (or dread the thought weeks) I can’t hit my hours target in a month.

I hate that uncertainty that has been introduced. I’m not the only one.

Each month you are now wondering if you will have earnt enough to pay the bills, get to work (my petrol costs have doubled), eat!

You have to love deliberate corporate inflicted FUD.

On a positive note I know I am definitely free for the next Fenland Gamers club night, and also the planned Battlestar Galactica session.

What state I’ll be in is another story, as I’d have been working nine days solid at that point.

Anyway thought I’d give you a little life update in lieu of any gaming update. I’ve been too tired this week to finish my fourth post in the Portal series. It will be done. But sleep and stuff!

I’ll leave you with the inspiring words used by Stevie Gerrard (way back in 2014) and also the title of this post, “we go again”.
