how did my 24 hour work week get turned into a 40.5 hour work week over the course of a day?

It feels surreal to be back at work after a long weekend with so much things going on.
Quite a few people have this week (and next week) off. So if all goes well, it will be a quiet and peaceful week.
Got some other stuff to look forward to today. In the afternoon I have therapy and tonight I'm having dinner with friends.

Nothing like a twelve hour work day the first day back after a long weekend! And I’m spending four hours today on a train...

I start my summer full time job (same one as last summer) on Monday (a 36.25 hour work week like last year). I'll be very happy to have more money by working full time instead of part time during university.

I'll cry all the way to the bank. |

I feel like I've outgrown my job, the people around me, the silly politics. So it might be a good idea to move on. The problem with that is I don't know where to. My job has good sides, I shouldn't take too much for granted. In general I think no matter what job you have nowadays, it just isn't what you really want.

That's why I'm going for an onwards and upwards approach... hoping to work my way up the ranks... |

Or you find a job you love and it doesn’t last. I love my job but I couldn’t even legally do it for more than two years. I’m excited for what the future may hold for me, but as of now it just feels sad knowing something good can’t last. I’m underpaid massively, that’s pretty much the only thing keeping my eyes set on the prize lol |

It's in an office for my city in the engineering department that uses a program called 'GIS' and we use GPS for things too. |

I haven't posted about this on this forum at all yet but I saw a post on 'Facebook' at the end of last year or into January this year about a company called 'Instacart' and I found it very interesting and almost too good to be true but I ended up applying at the end of January because I saw it on a job website and it said for my city so they must've been looking for people and I applied. The company hires people to shop for someone who makes an order online or through their app and you deliver it to them. I think I'd love this job as I love shopping and gathering things and scanning things (if you self checkout) and you can choose when you do the job as much or little as you want (except I haven't been able to do one yet). :/
I've been VERY annoyed with it lately. I haven't done one "batch" or order yet but I want to. I didn't really want to or didn't have time to do it until now when I'm out of university. I was planning on doing a few of them during my time off this week since it's the last week before I start my full time job again but as usual, it NEVER worked out. I got notifications that a batch (or multiple) were available when I was still in bed or it wasn't a convenient time, and when I wanted to do it I NEVER got a notification. It's been p*ssing me off. Maybe some time after work this upcoming week if I get one for a decent amount of money I'll try it out. Or next Saturday. I noticed that this past Friday night was a busy time as I saw like 4 or 5 orders around 6 PM or so.

Is there a time limit to collect and deliver the items? How do the wages work? I don't think we have anything like that here. Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you! |
