So after working 12 hours a day here, I go home on the weekend and have to jam all my friends and family in and guess what they all fucking complain they don't get to see me enough!! If I wanted to see my parents or friends I can't just pop over on a week night like you!
There are others here that do it tougher in way of family! by working a 2/1 roster and they only work 104 hrs a year more than my roster!
BUT I understand this is my choice and the sacrifice I make for money and career!
Just because it seems I work the same as you, until you have worked FIFO I suggest you shut the fuck up and EAD!
