When your work sucks . . . .

[Ginevra]

By some accident, I was given Christmas Eve and Day off. However, I have to work New Year's Eve and Day, which blows mightily.

When you're dealt a disappointment at work, how do you deal with it? Do you rant or rave about it to vent or do you quietly acquiesce?

I HAD off on NYE, but our DM decided that we ALL have to work. Who the Hell is going to bring their hung-over ass in for a makeover? I'd like to see the crack smoker who spends any money that day.

I quietly acquiesce unless it involves my paycheck. I know that ranting and raving might get me fired for "insubordination" (or at least at my company it did the last time someone else did that).

However, I have voluntarily switched jobs a lot. I have zero company loyalty - a better offer comes along and I'm gone, but I do value my job enough not to complain loudly enough to get me fired.

That really really sucks that you two have to work though :(
