Getting tired of being on call every Wensday
« on: July 20, 2005, 10:09:46 pm »
Espicaly when they don't call me in. Screws up the entire evening. As I gota stay up till about 12:30 tho just in case. Damn sure thinking about finding another job, because of this nonsence.

Be better if they would just let me work it all ready,but they wont.

I hope they at least pay you when you do have to go in.  For me the clock started when the pager went off and it stopped when I got back to bed.

I always loved getting paged at 3 AM with, "There are 90 ATM's down!  We need them back up within three hours!"  ::) ;D

Nope they don't do that,only pay if I actualy work it. They don't even pay overtime all straight time.

 And now the people upstairs are starting in with the thumping and banging around. Might as well work as I know I wont get too much sleep tonight.

Man I can't wait till monday after next when I move into my new place upstairs apartment, hopefully it will be a bit quiter, least I wont have people walking over top of me.

Any hours you work past 40 hours should be paid time-and-a-half.  If it's not, check out your state's Board of Labor.

Try to get some rest--you deserve it!
