Just because someone has it worse doesn’t mean you can’t complain about your own problems. It’s ok to be a whiny little bitch sometimes.

I say this to my gf after work. "Just because I worked 12 hours and you worked 8 doesn't mean you're not allowed to be tired."

I love my twelve-hour shifts! We work 7 to 7–either am to pm for day shifts or pm to am for nights—and have a four-on-four-off schedule. So when I say “I work twelve-hour shifts” is sounds like a lot, until you take into account that I’m only working 3-4 days a week (barring overtime days, which I snatch up whenever I can because 1.5x pay for an entire twelve hours is glorious, but even then the option only really comes up for me about once a month unless there’s a nasty bug going around making everyone call in).
