A BIG Mistake: I will be OVERUSED for TWO DAYS!!!

Let me clear out that this is about a job-related concern. The title might sound having a double meaning. I was so stressed out when waking up today. I committed a big mistake in opening my slots online. I didn't notice that all of them were opened and no breaks were spared. Now, I am teaching online almost the whole day and continue until midnight. The worst part, it will be the same scenario for tomorrow. Thus, I am taking full responsibility for it. Take note, I need to teach 25 students today. Whew! Good luck to me! "Have you committed a big mistake lately?" "Do you take full responsibility for such a big mistake?" "How are you all keeping?"

OMG!! 25 is a big number and continuing it for two consecutive days will be tiring.

@arunima25 I had a good rest today. It was so tiring these past two days of teaching. Now, I had recovered.

@Shavkat I am sure you will be too tired by the end of it and would really need some good rest.

That's the fact, my friend. More money to earn... I can't wait for my relaxation time tomorrow. I used to work in the hospital as a PT, but it doesn't pay that much. Unless if I am going to have home service, I can earn more than the regular pay in the hospital.

@hereandthere During my time working in the hospital, I did these things. Providing home service is not easy if going to the middle of the farmlands. I experienced this before and it is very tiring.

@Shavkat yes, that's what they do. they make sure they finish all the patients within their shift because they still have to go to their private home patients afterwards.

For me, these mistakes are always big lessons. I never regret, but I take them a new challenge in my life.

You said it right. I don't know why I didn't see the plotting of schedules right away.

I think you need to reformat your Windows. In my own opinion, the software was corrupted. I am not that techy.

@florelway At least, you have a back up out there. If there is something wrong with my desktop, I'll ask somebody to fix it.

Well sometimes we do something silly or plainly overlook something that makes us work again and could make us over stretched. But we do learn our lessons !

Indeed, my friend. There is no perfect world or even no perfect person. With this claim, people can still commit mistakes and learn something from them. It would be fine if the person takes it lightly as much as possible.

You had read it right, my friend. I work every day. But I don't work all day long on weekdays. It is only at night. Moreover, I need to grab the chance to work on weekends. For the reason that most students are available for these two days.

That is a positive way to handle these failures. Unfortunately, some people give up that easily.

Wow, that is a lot of students in one day! You will be exhausted after two days like this.

Last night, I decided to have an absence. Since I am so exhausted and can't deal with a whining student. It drains my energy when having a class with him. Now, I started to face the challenge again. Whew!
