I hope they are paying you good... My wife is doing the same thing, talk about a miserable thankless job. Multiple hours, one step forward two steps back and somebody is ALWAYS pissed at you. I've heard so much about this I think I'm actually doing it myself...
If it was what I considered good then I'd be driving an M5!

Apart from that it's all true!

I think the majority of the people work today unless they have plans for the weekend that requires a lot of time on the road.

4 day weekend for me too. But today was a disaster for me. I was in NJ and my tire blew out. No jack in the trunk, so I had to call the tow truck to jack it up to change. Then drove all the way back to Brooklyn and had my friend get me the tire. Going away for the weekend, didn't want to ride stock.

I feel like an idiot not taking today off. Would have been a perfect 4 day weekend. I knew driving into work this morning when there was no traffic at all that most normal people took the day off!!!
Great question, while driving into work today, I thought about what the hell I was doing, I closed up 7:30AM to 4:00PM, I'm home now watching the rain.
