Still at work
man I do not have a life...I have been at work since 9am and I am still stuck here...How many of you work 10-12 hours a day for 3-5 days straight before?
I hate it, but that's what I get for being in sales

Im majoring in Art. All the animated film people do 10-12 hours everyday. They get a month off if they're lucky, but that isn't enough for me to work to the bone the whole year. We'll see when i graduate in a year or so.
it will be fine until i have a family, sorry for you and your 2 girls right?

Wow, I didn't know animating is that crazy. I thought it is an 8-5 career.

I've worked for a whole week straight one time (4-5 hours on both Saturday and Sunday though). I was not pleased and I was terribly grumpy towards the end of that gauntlet. Now that I think about it, I didn't get a day off until the Saturday after. Hang in there dude, at least you can post online while you're at it. =/

My previous job at Intel I had compressed shift. My hours working there at the time was 12 hrs a day, 6pm-6am. I'm currently working graveyard shift hrs still, but only 8 hrs 6 days a week. Yeah me too I'm at work as we speak and the way I look at it, more money on the suby lol na jk most of it will go into my savings.
Don't worry, you're not the only one. For the past 10 and a half years I've been starting work around 5:30 am and going home close to 6 pm. Manual labor.
You get used to it.
