Hi everyone! I'm the youngest in my team, and they always make me work on holidays and weekends. They say it's because others have families and kids, and I don’t. Sometimes they give me time off or...

You have to put your time in, we all did when we were younger and we didn't complain it was unfair because that is just how life is - when you are... new, you get the grunt work and the holidays/weekends. After you put in your time and "EARN" your way up (so many people don't understand the concept of you have to earn things, you are not just magically entitled to them) then you get the perks. It's only fair, you have to start somewhere, and people who worked with the company 10+ years and earned their way to their perks deserve to have weekends/holidays off. I know long-road truck drivers that are gone for 2 weeks at a time that have found time to start a family so just because you have to work weekends and holidays does not mean you will never be able to start a family. In fact, how will you support this family you want to start if you don't stick out a job to earn your way to get time off & perks?  more
