Anyone else so busy at work they don't even have time to bathe?

[SaltyNuts]

It is insane. I get up at like 8:30, because I have a call at 9:00. Then I have a call at 10:00. And 11:30.

So, why even bother dressing up and driving in when I can't even escape my home until after noon? Why not just save the 30 mins to suit up and the 30 mins both driving to and from work? That is 1.5 hours otherwise wasted.

Then more calls in the afternoon, tons of people calling me and emailing me about their problems and how we need to talk right now. I try and put out fires, but I'm just now putting out today's fires here well after midnight central.

Have not bathed, smell like complete shit. Taking a shower here in a few.

But this shit is INSANE. Anyone else living this insane lifestyle, or do yall have sense enough to put a stop to the bullshit when it becomes to much?

I kind of feel that life is not worth living when basically every day is me killing myself to try and please other people all day every day with nothing for me to live for...

I have to be honest, with all of your unique posts/questions here, I guess I figured you had unlimited free time and were really, really bored.

Man, the 1.7 minutes I took to post today was literally ALL the free time I had. I guess I did look up a map of the Russia/Ukraine invasion like for 24 seconds as well if I had to be honest, but that is IT.

 

[SaltyNuts]

Cat pestered me, so I did take about 11 second to drop some food in her bowl as well.

 

[SaltyNuts]

I guess like 4 seconds to feed fish, maybe like 7 to take some lettuce out of fridge and feed turtle.

This hurts typing shit out like this, makes me realize how bad my life sucks...

Your problem is getting up at 8:30. Get up at 7:30 so you have time to shower and stuff. I hate getting up early as much as the next guy, but I HAVE to shower in the morning, I just don't feel right not doing it, even on days I'm staying home.

Worse case scenario just shower before bed.

Thanks Red Squirrel. First, I ALWAYS shower before bet. Going to take one right now, finally.

Second, I *almost* always shower in the morning as well. But when I'm up past midnight doing shit for work, then I shower, I am up pretty darned late, and its hard to get up early. Hence why I just get up 30 or a few min before the call.

It sucks.

 

[SaltyNuts]

I *WOULD* get up at 7:30 or 6:30 or even 5:30 but that is literally impossible because all these spaz clients need shit done until late in the night. It is unbelievable to me...

There will always be work waiting for you tomorrow. Are you paid for 12 hours of work or are you salaried?

 

[deadlyapp]

You just sound like you're unable to balance your work and life appropriately - although that may not be wholly your fault.

I can't really comment too much - I have generally an extremely free work balance, work from home, rarely need to do things after 4pm, and have plenty of time through the day to take care of myself, however I'm also in sales so occasionally when SHTF I put in long hours to make sure my customers are happy.

 

[sdifox]

but, you make soap for a living...or is this the drive-through margarita talking?

 

[pete6032]

Isn't making soap and building garden beds part of your free time?

 

[Torn Mind]

Yes.

 

[snoopy7548]

Use the 30 minutes you save driving to work (or from work) and shower.

Personally I prefer not to bathe at work but hey you do you!

 

[BudAshes]

Nope.

 

[brianmanahan]

i know what you mean man

most days i don't get a shower until lunchtime

i usually work from 6 to 11 solid (meetings all morning), then 12 to 6 to actually get real work done

deadlines have gotten brutal, i need to get a new job

 

[njdevilsfan87]

Why can't you just tell people that you're not available outside of work hours? So what if their fires keep burning?

 

[JPS35]

Maybe you should give up making "pube soap" and put in a few minutes for a shower. Better yet, flush your head in a toilet and let the water run down and rinse off.

 

[zinfamous]

I don't understand how you have all this free time to make soap and aquariums but not enough time to clean yourself.

 

[brianmanahan]

i've been working for almost 3 hours and still haven't taken a shower

and other people think that i should still have availability, so they're assigning me work on top of my other work

i'll be working till 10PM today at this rate

It's the best time in decades to get a new job. Quit asap, a headhunter will have you a new job in days.

Even if he doesn't shower?

Sucks to have a sucky job, Sucky McSuckerson.

Nobody knows if you work from home.
