Anyone else feel like a robot between being a mom wife and just working all the time honestly I’m starting to feel like a robot and the weekends just fly by. We need an extra day off sometimes I think 312s is much better than 40 hour work weeks 8 to 5. What’s your take on that?

Of course. My child is grown and at college but I still feel like a zombie. I brag about my 4 days off but that first day is just in bed recovering from the last 3. Then I'm cleaning house, running errands, appointments, etc. Doesn't really feel like time off.

I work 3 12s on night shift and feel like I’m a zombie through life and it takes a full day off to recover from nights. We also don’t make our own schedules so we rarely work 3 12s in a row or have a regular schedule. At least with 5 8s you have a routine down.

Absolutely. And you know it's crazy? Anytime I do something for myself, like have a day at the salon or go shopping for me, I get rude comments from family like I'm being selfish or something. As if my entire life isn't dedicated to working and taking care of my family.

Oh yes! Sometimes I feel like my life is on auto pilot mode. But like a really stressed out, anxiety riddled robot mode. If that makes sense? It’s like my life is routine but chaos.

I think M-F 8-5 is more stressful, especially when raising kids. I prefer working a .6 up to .9 FTE like two 12s per week or three 10s. Have you looked at working less than 40 hrs a week

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
