This is what I do at work (you know, besides working) - I count weeks on a calendar. Of the last 62 weeks, I’ve worked an accumulative 32. True story.
Here, I’ll show you the breakdown:
22 full weeks out (three surgeries, 9 weeks out, 6 weeks out and 5 weeks out + 2 weeks of vacation time)
16 weeks part time (6 weeks, 7 weeks and then 3 weeks part time for recovery from said surgeries)
That’s 38 weeks out of the last 62 that I haven’t worked full time. Granted 16 of them were part time, which means that my total out has been 30 weeks of the last 62, but I think 38 sounds more impressive so I'm keeping that number.
This is how I cope with working 40 hour weeks, by counting back to figure out how many weeks I haven’t worked this year. As sick as that may sound, it makes me feel better.
Just call me Pollyanna.
