Do you enjoy slow days at work?

[Potteplante]

I'm actually dreading the rest of this work weekend. Having a slow day today, was alright - I've deserved it but a whole weekend with this... I'm going to slowly die on the inside - one 2 and a half kid around, (I say half because one is in is room at all times except for food, candy and bathroom).

I mean I work in home care. I hate working with dementia clients for a multitude of reasons but repetitive questions is one of them. So last night I worked a 4 hour shift with a dementia client who has reverted to his native tongue which makes it more difficult to understand what he’s saying and what he needs.


I prefer longer shifts that sure are slow like the 16 hours I was working before because I would do their cares, check in on them and do cares as needed and then just keep to myself and do my own thing.

I like to be busy. It has been really slow at work and i am afraid the place will close soon

Thanks for the MHO😎

Yes. The only person that likes busy days are owners or ceos

[Potteplante]

Well, I'm neither a owner nor a CEO, I'm just a governmental employee, and I prefer them over slow days, especially when they're as slow as this weekend is going to be.

Yes I do but I’m always busy

Slow goes by so - well slowly. 😴😪 I almost prefer hectic days over slow.

Days like that feel like time is standing still

[Potteplante]

I know right! Just ended a 12 hour shift that felt like FOREVER. 😭
