How it Should Have Gone
Actual Conversation:
Me:
"Well, I'm going to go home for a bit and work on my other job, then I'll be back. I'm burning the candle at both ends."
Other person:
"Oh I feel your pain!"
Me: (chuckles and leaves)
How it SHOULD have gone:
Me:
"Feel my pain? How do you feel my pain? I work for you. When I'm not working for you I'm running my own company. When I'm not running my own company I'm taking care of a 10 year old. When I'm not doing any of those things I'm trying my best to get some sleep for more than a few hours. You go to work. You go home. Your time at home is yours. You have no concept of what I have to do every day."
