I'm still bitter over the fact that a couple of months ago I was covering stuff for my boss while he was on vacation and (obviously) we had a major problem pop up at about 4:45 on a Friday. To make matters worse it wasn't my office's fault but we had to work that weekend to fix it. I ended up at my desk for about 10 hours that Saturday, did work at home on Sunday, and then was there for about 10 hours a day on Monday and Tuesday.

That kind of thing is very uncommon for my work and since I'm salaried and we've been on a wage freeze for over a year and a half they couldn't do much to compensate me for my time. Like I said, still bitter.
