i've been having a slight runny nose for the past 2 days and i'm seriously waiting for it to worsen so i can feel sick enough to stay home and call in sick. but it seems like my immune system is doing a pretty good job. darn.
this week, mon and tues had to be one of the worst days. short funding 47 million usd and 2 million pounds today is thurs and i have already clocked 46 hours in the office this week
was emailing a friend from e office the other day, and had to cancel dinner plans with her for the 3rd consecutive time in 2 weeks. and of course was complaining how i'm overworked and VERY underpaid.
imagine, sleep 6.5 hours, travelling to and fro work 2 hours, lunch 1 hour, work approxiately 11-12 hours or more sometimes, and that means i'm blardy left with 3.5 hours to eat my dinner, shower, catch up with family n friends. hence how i've been replying to smses a few days late or i continue sms conversations after one or two days later as if i received the sms a few minutes ago.
24 hours a day is REALLY insufficient. coupled with the mad demands from my dealers, phone that rings non-stop, never ending rush to get work done and out of my outbox promptly and stress of short fundings and having to liase directly with other depts.
welcome to the life of the overworked unappreciated treasury back office
