I don’t know if anyone else has had to deal with this issue, but I am looking for input: How do I deal with an employer that is putting pressure on me to not only work 5 days a week but to also come in on weekends in addition to the weekdays? The thing is, I put in overtime every week that I am not being paid for. The only time I have to really concentrate on my business is the weekends. I REALLY do not want to give up any of that time, but unfortunately, I am not making enough doing makeup to support myself so I have to work a regular job. Maybe I have the wrong attitude, but I feel that my weekends are mine to do what I need to do and for me that means working to build my business. Am I being unreasonable? (Note: I was hired to work Monday through Friday, part time, but I have been doing more than 40 hours a week for over 6 months now without being made a full time employee)

Thanks for commenting Rachel. I make enough to support myself (rent, car note, car insurance, utilities) but not much more. Fortunately I don't need a lot to survive. As far as my dream - I sacrificed it for 40 years because I was in a religious cult. Now that I have finally escaped, I don't want to put my personal goals aside anymore. I am sure I will figure this out.
