It's almost 2 PM (Shabbos is like 10 to 7) and I'm itchy to leave, even though I have only the chicken to bake....

I'm only working 3 hours now so I can be home to get the kids from school. Instead of 8-12, it's 8-11.

I work until 3:15 on Fridays, no matter what time Shabbos comes in!!! I'm itching to leave already, and it's so so so annoying when parents/ siblings come late Twisted Evil Twisted Evil (I work in a preschool). I get home 3:30/ quarter to 4.

And, while I'm on this vent, I've got school on Erev Rosh Hashana too. Ugh!

I work 'til about 1.5 hours before shabbos. (I work from home)
I have to work 40 hours a week so whatever I don't work on Friday has to be made up. Which I can never seem to find the time to do.
So I work as much as possible on Friday.

Me too. Some of my co-workers work shorter days all week and then work on Sunday to make it up. Not for me!
And I live in Israel where everyone works Sunday, but I just can't get used to the idea.
In the winter when I can't work 8 hours on Friday, so I have to put in hours on either motzei shabbos or Sunday, I hate it!
If I would take off Friday, all I would get done is preparing for shabbos. Since I work Friday, I'm forced to prepare the whole shabbos Thurs. night. And I can use Sunday to get other things done.

same here with needing to fill 40 hours. I live in Israel also, but can't get used to Sunday work, and need the day for all the other hundred things that come up. But Friday I also find hard to work. So for now I try putting in an extra hour every weekday so it only leaves me 4 hours to do over friday/sunday. that way I hardly work at all over a long weekend.
