Don't do it. It gives them a reason not to get new staff. Source: experience

I work almost as much overtime as regular hours. Healthcare is brutal, yo.

This happened this week in Western Australia. A school principal in Laverton pretty much worked herself to death.

Been doing tech support 4 about 20 years. Current job is the best I have ever had but still looking forward to moving on as a software dev.

I had to quit a great job because they wouldn't give me time off. I had been asking them for 6 months. Nearly had a mental breakdown.
StripTheFleshSaltTheWound
I bust my ass and they just give me more work while my coworkers sit in the bathroom on their phones for the same pay. I hate life.

They are hell bent at only having skeleton crews at my job. On top of that a guy left 5 months ago and they still have not filled his(1)

position. I have been picking up the workload for that position as well as mine that whole time. Finally putting my notice in tomorrow.

Yea, we're going to repost the same memes forever, so if you could just bury OC with old shit non-stop, that'd be SHITTY
Bethem909
I'm just not cut out to work consecutive 18 hour days. Shit isn't worth it.

Don’t forget the new work that we’re taking on too!

Then you leave and find a new job.

One place I worked at took the piss so no one would cover shifts for less than double pay.

Wtf is with this? here I am, tossing applications out like beads at mardi gras and yet places are understaffed but also not hiring????
poppypooley
Exactly this

Story of my life. Also why i quit. 90 patients for 5 staff was ridiculous.
fingersonlips
We had days doing 75 for 3 staff. That was my line.
pianosleeves
I swear to god, if anyone comments something like "stop braggind, just try having kids..." I'm gonna cut a bitch!
fingersonlips
This is why I left a job that had us short staffed for almost 5 years. Not my problem anymore!

Don't need to pay lots of employees if we only have a few that work constantly.

Pssh, i wish i had hours working in retail, id rather work like a dog than not afford to live. honestly.
Despycat
Hah! In retail, you work like a dog, and STILL can't afford to live...
theKINGofMEAT
+1 for truth, at least my customers dont hate me like ive heard from other people.
Copperbrat
Learned that the hard way. My dept heads kept neglecting to replace people that left. Still had a deadline to meet, so we busted hump. 1/

When we pushed for more staff, they just said "You met your deadlines just fine without extra people." Fortunately, two years later 2/

after an audit, it was decided that we were owed hourly+OT pay instead of salary because we had worked outside our job descriptions. 3/3

Was probably cheaper for the company. At the time.

I recently interviewed for a job where they heavily implied that I would be expected to just work 8-6 as my regular schedule. Like haha, NO!
fingersonlips
Ten hour days 5 days a week? Fuuuuuuuck that.
ProbablyDrunkAgain
Were you expecting 20 hrs/wk and telecommute when you didn't feel like coming in? 50 hrs/wk is pretty normal in many fields.
BoxesofFoxes
Uh no, fuckstick, and you can take your condescending shitty attitude and shove it right back up your ass where it came from k byyee
ProbablyDrunkAgain
Well you're not going to get hired anywhere with that attitude. Kisses, boo.

My mom worked for Immigration, and helped create the modern processing centers. She was a subject matter expert. She was regularly denied 1/

2/ leave for vacations and such because they refused to train up others to do her job. "We can't spare you b/c no one else can do your job"

3/ her work ethic prevented her from telling them to go to hell (for years). They did eventually train others to back her up.

Dude, I got away from a toxic situation like this too. 7p to 7a everyday with a 1 year old and a newborn at home. I hope you can find escape

Planning on moving to a steady 5 day 12 hr job midsummer. Hope I can get the job...
DonQuixotic
Feel free to use me as a long distance reference, just tell me where we "worked" in the past and some other easy info and I'll do the rest
IndefinetelyTired
Haha I appreciate the offer,but I think my current job has enough and my boss from my last job loved me. Thanks for the offer though

Just needed to say that we also have 212% tax on cars.
scottjaeger
Wow, a post from the Civilized World!! When are you going to invade the US?
Crushhymn
Can't. You spend too much on military, money that could be used on other more constructive things :D
scottjaeger
No joke: one justification for US's massive "defense" budget is that it protects Western Europe
Crushhymn
I know. While i don't really trust the leader, i have faith in the rest of the US army.
