I hate this time of year

By MegaZeo - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff - United States - Livermore

Today, I could not decide what was sadder: the fact that I have to work on New Year's Eve, or that fact that working on New Year's Eve is still the most exciting thing I've ever done for New Year's Eve. FML

As I write this I just finished working part one of my 24 hours total covering eve and day.

I switched from an evening shift to a day shift so I could go spend it with the neighbours - and they went somewhere else!

That's why I dislike New Year's Eve.

I worked a grave shift. But time and a half new years day? Heck yeah!

Indeed, it's hard to be upset about a bigger paycheck

I spent New Year's Eve waiting for my wife to get out of her job, which was at 2 AM, New Year's Day. Sometimes, life just throws a curveball. At your balls.

I was working new years aswell. I kinda didn't mind it.

You should go out to a pub and find people for the night, complete strangers! Then you'll have a good night to remember

Welcome to the club. I had to work on Christmas as well. At least on Christmas i got holiday pay. We had to go to bed at 7pm so the only thing my girlfriend and I did last night was eat out. We didnt get to see the ball drop either.

I was on an airplane for New Years. Still at an airport, waiting for my next flight. :/

Don't Worry! You'll get to experience another multiple New Years! :-)

It's really just another day on the calendar. Holidays can be so stressful with expectations that something wonderful is supposed to happen. It's no wonder folks get depressed. At least you have a job.
