What pissed you off today?

[Blade]

My boss announced today that we would begin coming in at 6 am starting Monday. This crew has worked 5-2 for the last 3 years. I have been starting work at 5 am since 1994.

I know it sounds silly that this pisses me off, but that one hour makes a big difference in what time we actually get off. We are never guaranteed to get off at 2pm. If we work 9 hours and get off at 3 we are stuck in school traffic for 30 minutes of stop and go traffic before we get to the crossroads. If we get off at 4 we get tangled up in the other industrial plants traffic, which isn't as bad as the school traffic. If we work until 5 well everyone knows about 5 oclock traffic. And here is the kicker, if we have to work 12 hours and work 6 am to 6 pm, that sucks all the way around. In winter you go to work in the dark and go home in the dark. In summer ya don't get home until 7 pm and there isn't much time for doing outside stuff mowing gardening canning etc before it is time to eat dinner, shower and go to bed.

I don't know it just messes up my "norm" for the past 21 yrs. I don't do well with change, unless it is change for the better and there is no reason given for this change. OK I'm done ranting now.
