Tech Support Sucks: Work on Holidays

with one comment

I like my job. I enjoy helping people. And the conditions and pay are, over all, okay; otherwise I wouldn’t do what I am doing. Still, there are days when I just don’t know why I put up with it. Like today. Because today is a holiday in Germany, and I am sitting in the office along with some – not all – of my co-workers.

There’s not really much going on, either – it’s quite evident that a large chunk of our customer base is sitting in a beer garden somewhere. And worst of all, we don’t even get any overtime pay for this – just another day off within six weeks. Crummy deal.
