All Work And No Play...

For reasons I'd really better not go into, work isn't a lot of fun at the moment, and hasn't been for some time.

And today I got an email from the boss, who is away at the moment, threatening a written warning (and I can't really argue with him, because it is for something I've done wrong) and after something that happened today, I'm expecting another email tomorrow.

But I've emailed him too, telling him that I really can't go on doing 6 day weeks every week... It's taking too big a strain on me... I'm tired, emotional, don't have time to keep up with housework or my own affairs, and my leg isn't healing like it should... because it's not getting any rest.

He's probably not going to be happy, but weighing up an extra £40-odd every second week (I only get paid extra alternate Saturdays I work) against my health, I have to ask is it worth it?

I guess I'll find out tomorrow what his thoughts are... keep your fingers crossed he doesn't mention P45's!
