Key is to never work overtime in less severely needed. In my 10 months with my company, I've only worked maybe 6-7 hours overtime.

I just decided not to move home for the summer. Now I must find a good job...
Good job Robbo!
I am going to an interview tomorrow that I don't even care about the program anymore...and it's going to be snowing. I think it's a sign I'm not supposed to go.

Usually I can control my day, but if there's a problem with a big client that falls under my domain, I have no choice but to drop everything when something comes up
There was an upside to this which I just realized today... as we sat around a boardroom table to brainstorm solutions and work on the finances of the problems, I came up with things people didn't think of. People noticed, and my ideas are a key part of what we're moving forward with. And I was the only woman in an office of 40+ year old men who have (obviously) way more experience than me... I think I really gained their respect.
And my company will never call it overtime when it relates to full time, salaried, professional level employees. Whatever hours are needed, is what you work... the word overtime makes it sound like you get paid extra. Most people (of the 700 in my office) work 60 hours a week, some more some less.

Today I have:
- Physsoc (Physics Society) AGM, I'm running for president
- Physsoc Juice and Cheese, it was supposed to be a wine and cheese but we didn't get on getting our liquer liscence early enough
- skirt day, the day in which me and my female physics friends dress up as females, a day in which we make ourselves all pretty (vs wake up just in time to throw on clothes, brush teeth and barely make it to class on time).

Random story from today... can't figure out where else to stick this:
I'm driving home, it's gorgeous outside, my car windows are rolled down and OMA comes on the radio. I turn it up nice and loud and sing along as I'm driving down the road. I have to slow and stop for a light. I keep singing, and I look to my left... the guy in the lane next to me and I lock eyes and we are both singing along to OMA with our windows down... we cracked up laughing! It was such a funny moment!
:lol:
