Roster Envy

1. The bitter mix of jealousy and regret you feel when you see someone else’s work schedule is way better than yours - more days off, better shifts, and somehow they dodged every weekend and public holiday.

2. The sudden realization that your life would be at least 37% better if whoever made their roster also made yours.
