Working on the weekends is not what I want to keep doing

I don’t enjoy working on the weekend in the least.

  • Those are the days that I pretty much have to be working right now.

It wasn’t long ago when I started working for a new corporation & I am at the bottom of the totem pole pretty much. I was honestly working for a different maintenance corporation for 5 years, however the owner sold that corporation & I had to find a different place to work. I searched for a job that would give me all of the weekends off, however it’s taxing to find that in the Heating & A/C industry. I have been a Heating & A/C repairman for just about a decade. I truly appreciate the work, however I honestly wish I didn’t have to regularly work the weekends. The weather outside is often nice, warm, & sunny. All of my friends don’t have to do any work on the weekend. They go kayaking, canoeing, & paddle boarding around the bay. They commonly ask me to go along & I always say no because I have no choice. Last weekend, James, Danny & Mark were asking me to go hiking with them near the National Monument. I totally wanted to go hiking & the weather was supposed to be incredibly nice! Sadly, I could not get anybody at all to switch days with me at work. I essentially had to spend the whole day just working on a Heating & A/C replacement job. I was scheduled all through the day & I did not get back to my property until the sun was set. I don’t easily know how long I will be forced to work weekends, however I genuinely hope that it will not be much longer.
