When does this start being unfair?!

I am waiting for my work clothes to dry right now..so that i can go to my 10th day of work...my 10th day of working with no day off! That's all fine and dandy..but, I have children i need to see. I work as a housekeeper at a motel. I've only been there for 4 months, seems like much longer..yikes! Anywho..I'm taking this opportunity to whine a little. A couple of months ago they switched bosses on me..I had just barely started the job and wanted only part time hours (go in the morning..get out at 1 or 2)..This couple was already established in the company as the main Housekeepers, but, when the new bosses came in..they protested and quit..lol@ the reasoning why..they didn't want to have to fold the laundry, which they were already kinda doing as it was..they just wanted to be complicated..good for them! except they just so happened to leave on the day they said i could have a day off..and well...i ended up with all their rooms and then some..and i got bumped up to HeadMaid...grrr...i don't like being spotlighted. ~Back to now~:

They finaly hired someone else to come in a month later..finaly! i would get a darn break..i wouldn't have to clean so many darn rooms and get out at 5 or 7pm at night..HaHa! The joke was on me! The lady had only been there for 2 weeks and i get called in..because she took a darn vacation and didn't tell anyone..Then the the week of christmas..she did it again..in fact she's still on vacation..which leads this being my 10th day of working without a day off..not only did i have to work on christmas..i have to work threw new years eve and day..Yep! they said i might get a week off after the 3rd of January! that will be my 13th day.

Don't get me wrong..i am fine with the work thing..it's just that i'm being taken advantage of. I've complained over and over again and all my boss can say is...we'd rather have you do all the work..we like your work better. And all i can say is...yeah! but, if i can't walk and function anymore..how does that benefit anyone! Also the rooms are on the outside of the building..so i've had to work in freezing temperatures..and still no compassion from these folks...I just want them to show a little concern for my well-being..sheesh

My only solution is...when and if i get that break..i'm running for it..i'm getting me another jobby job! try to convence me please..i'm such a chicken!

Sorry for complaining ~TinaBear~

If it were me, I wouldn't want to work there but I hope they give you a day off soon so maybe you won't have to quit. If you do quit I wish you the best!! Oh yeah and maybe you could go to the boss and tell him/her that if they don't give you a vacation then your quiting..they might be a lil scared and let ya have one LoL

My advice, start the new year with a new job, and when you do find one tell them about it, how it's not worth working so much and not being able to see your children, if they're smart enough not to let you go they should give you a raise at the very least.

Date: 12/31/2003 8:31:00 AM  From Authorid: 16671    Been there and done that, we had over two hundred room in blythe california motel, but when the new management came in all but FOUR of us quit work. WEll five actually as shiela did the laundry. but that was over two hundred rooms a day for four girls. Two of us took the downstairs and two the upstairs. We didnt get done until about eight at night, made some dang good money two weeks while they were hiring other people. But geeze if we were not tired, not one day off. Tell them they need to hire a few more people PRONTO or they will find themselves cleaning the rooms their selves.

I can't believe that newbie took "vacations" already and your working so many days. I dunno. I think there's a law against that. If there isn't there ought to be.   
Date: 12/31/2003 11:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 62478    I am in the same sunken boat. I used to have a partner, but he up and left for Miami (about 12 hour drive from here). So now I'm left with all the work (I haven't taken a day off in over a month, and some nights I just don't leave). I keep saying that I'm going to get another job, but I never do. SO take advice from me, go, run, as fast as you can get another job before you just start excepting the extra work. It's not fair to you, your kids or anyone really, well except maybe your boss and then its overly fair .....but at any rate, well they say not to fix it if its not broken, well I can't speak for you but my jobs not broken, its dead .....deathletgo
