Time Managment

The residents in my community are wonderful .... okay, most of the time they are wonderful. When they like something, they tell you and of course if they don't like something, there are a few who "owe it to me" to tell me the truth. What I like is that they think that I am a hard worker and that I am there all the time. But you and I know that nowadays, with the economy the way that it is, that I am not allowed to have very much overtime. I am fortune enough to have supervisors who understand the idea of a flexible schedule, allowing me to be off when I need to work late. This is so helpful, especially because I have a family that I want to be available for. I sure hope that you have a boss who allows you time off when you need it, so that you are not working 40 plus hours each week. If you don't, it might be worth a conversation - especially in these economic times, since you'd be saving the company money. But, on the other hand, if you can get the OT, and your life can manage it without giving up the truly important things in life (family, friends, mental and physical health, etc.) then go for it!
