wholefoodnut's Journal, 19 Feb 22

A week has gone by. Some progress on getting exercise back. Mostly working on my neck and upper back. Not as much cardio as I should be doing. Food ify and too much beer after work.

Work has been overwhelming and I'm exhausted. I work in customer service and my team serves 45 mutual fund companies. It's tax season. My 11 person team is down 5 people from last year and our call volume is up about 25%. My manager has been out for 4 weeks as her Mom health issues worsened and she died. I'm the team lead. Doing my job plus much of hers. The company suddenly decided we needed help. So now I'm also training 2 temp teams and 2 new hires with zero time to plan training.

My bosses say oh you can work as much overtime as you need to to get things done. My work days are at a desk, a computer, on the phone or lately on zoom meetings 11-12 hours a day. I clocked out at 10 hours non Friday leaving at least 2 more hours of follow up calls, sup calls, recorded call reviews that should have been done. i had had enough!! I want to work my 8 hours and be done!! every single day makes me wish I could retire now but ...

Rant is over. A 3 day weekend!! It will mostly be catching up on things I can't get done during the week. DD and.SIL will be up Sunday and stay a couple of days. off to cleaning and I need a shopping list as extra people who do not eat like I do.

Glad to see a familiar name, sounds like you are fighting a considerable amount of stress, much like the last 3 years of my life, I've come back to begin again, Almost, but not quite back where I started in 2015. Enjoy your long weekend. Be kind to yourself.
