Radio personality DJ Chacha has been solving heart problems on her evening radio show at MOR 101.9, but she admits that she is still having a hard time leaving her daughter every time she goes to work at night.
“Waiting for Hubby to come home. Busy siya nakikipag-bidding para sa pangarap naming Dream House Sana abutan ko siya makauwi bago pumasok sa trabaho. Minsan, istorbo talaga ang trabaho sa family time. Charot! Don’t get me wrong, I love working. I love my job. I love making people happy. I love hearing their stories.,” DJ Chacha posted on her Cacebook account.
“Pero hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin maiwasan malungkot kapag papasok nako sa trabaho sa gabi. Diba, patulog na pamilya mo, ikaw simula pa lang ng araw mo? Taas kamay sa mga night shift na nakakarelate ?,”she said.
Chacha then consoled herself by saying that they can do things on weekends.
“Okay lang yan nagagawa naman namin matulog ng sabay sabay kapag weekends. Kapag nakikita ko mga kailangang bayaran nawawala ang pagka-senti ko,” she said.
And the she remembered the plight of millions of Overseas Filipino Workers who left their family behind in order to find a living.
She the realized that being a night shift worker is luckier than being an OFW because of the sacrifices you have to make.
“Naku Chacha, tigilan mo kaartehan mo hiyang hiya mga OFW na miss na miss na pamilya nila dito sa pinas. Wala ng mas hihirap sa eksena nila. Maswerte pa rin tayong mga night shift at least araw araw natin kasama at nakikita ang pamilya natin,” DJ Chacha said.
