================================

The name has been omitted to protect the annoying...

So... I am on vacation... from Wednesday of this week, through tuesday of next week. I scheduled it in January, when i started this job.

I worked Wednesday and Thursday... FULL DAYS!!!! Today i have so many wedding things to do around the house and some running around, that well, I can't participate in work today...

Things that are in Jeopardy for next week.

Spending the day with my cousin
Visiting a friend of mine
Going to the Shore
Overall Happiness...

Now... i am complaining... because if they can take away this vacation, they can take away all vacations, but i have reclaimed 2 of my 5 vacation days back, and will probably be reclaiming the other 2 next week.

My mom, who is less than thrilled, was like, so what happens if you were really out of pocket, like on a cruise or something...

To that I replied... i have no clue... probably demand that i stop any and all revelry and get off at the nearest port (probably at my own expense) find a network, and just start working.

I am new and i don't want to push the boundries...Even though... i really want to say... "um no... it's their own fucking fault for taking 5 days to turn around a document review, keep changing the ideas of what they want, pushing project scope, and overall... being bad people!"

and I am on vacation damnit... I have already worked weekends, whole nights, from home, from work, from the hotel room... and now... on vacation!... (chants the mantra in my head) they are paying me a lot... they are paying me a lot!)

but is it enough?

I guess so... but it is HIGHLY frustrating.
