Journal Ender_Stonebender's Journal: Stuck at work on a Saturday

So I'm stuck at work today; and today is Saturday.

"What?" you say. "I thought you had a real job that didn't make you work Saturdays!" Well, most of the time, it doesn't. But this is the Holiday Shopping Season, which is the busiest time for credit card processing. And I work for a credit card processing company. Company policy requires that we have at least one person from each group available to solve problems between 8 AM and 8 PM on weekdays and noon to 8 PM on Saturday. As soon as our busiest day (transaction-wise, not total-amount-of-money-moved-wise) falls on Sunday, someone is going to insist that we have someone working noon to 8 PM on Sunday as well. And, conscientous guy that I am, I'll have to agree with them, because they'll be right, it is important to have someone around to solve issues in this critical period for merchants.
