厳しい2月の業務

In January, I only worked 6 hours a day as contracted, which was really great. However,

not so in February. This was due to a scheduling error made by my boss. When he said,

I believe you can do 8 hours of work in 6 hours, I thought he was joking, but he wasn't.

I had two deadlines for launching websites at the end of the month and did a lot of overtime.

At the peak, I was working 11 hours a day. On top of that, we were hit by two severe cold waves.

I couldn't shovel the snow because that would have zapped my energy to do other things.

So I left my car buried in snow and didn't go out for as long as a week. It was incredibly stressful.

My boss apologized, but it wasn't enough. I'm going to talk to my boss to ensure that we never have a repeat of this.
