First day back at work - bloody nightmare...

[Susanne]

Why do first days back at work after a holiday always have to be as awful as they come?? I had my first day back yesterday, and it was one of those really draining shifts where everything unpleasant that can possibly happen does happen, you get not even a five minute break, everybody is completely stressed out, and you end up having to stay an hour longer at the end of the day - as if 12 hours isn't long enough already... Aaaargh! Then on the way back the road was closed off and the diversion added another 25 minutes to my 1-hour journey home, AND for the last 30 minutes the idiot behind me had his lights on full beam so I got blinded in my rearview mirror all the time. Got home at 11 at night in a flood of tears.

Sorry for the long rant, but it helps to have a good moan sometimes! Thank God I have my last long shift tomorrow, and then it's over to short shifts from next week on, woohoo!

Had my first day back in London today (have been travelling with work whole of August) walked into chaos this morning, still here now and will be here for a few hours yet i'm sure - rubbish day! Always hits you the hardest when you have had a few days off... Just to top it off one of the other girls who works with me has just announced she is preggers too - there are only 3 of us who work for this family (one is a bloke) and my boss has hit the roof! She is now pissed off with both of us! Ahhhh, the joys of work

Hope you'll be the exception that proves the rule and have a really good first day back... Enjoy the rest of your holidays!

It sucks when you walk into a load of crap straight after a holiday. I always felt that it was a punishment for taking time off. Here's to mat leave for all of us.
