    How is this a surprise? The detachment people have from the reality “on the ground” is infuriating. Try working a job you hate for shit pay for 71% of your entire fucking week and then just bounce into a weekend (assuming you even get two days off in a row) with all the energy to “do stuff”.

    ffs. Assholes.

      I’ve put my foot down on Tuesday/Wednesday as my weekend. the past year I’d be lucky to get 2 in a row.

      This gives me a functional 4 day week but if I get rostered on Sunday I’m perfectly happy with that kind of money.

        I’m glad for you!! That’s great. I’m fortunate as well. I work 4 days (10 hours) so I typically have three days off and my boss usually gives me at least two in a row.

        Even with that, I still often burn one day off just recovering. This oligarchy late stage capitalism is bullshit.
