The perils of being salaried
The past 5 weeks have passed in a blur. I’ve worked every day for between 10-14 hours per day, including weekends. I can’t complain too much, since this is why I was brought into my job a year ago. However, I underestimated the impact it would have on me and my ambition for outside activities - I had none.
The hourly people at work made a killing - with overtime, holiday, and 7-day pay, some were pulling in ridiculous amouts of money. While I don’t really want to trade places, it’s hard not to be a wee bit jealous when someone’s pay is three times yours all of a sudden.
