professionally

my friend had one of those

work sucks

leave late

drive 25-30mph over the speed limit so I'm not one minute late

a total of 6 minutes late over 3 days total and I'm one infraction from being disciplined, next year's bonus has already been docked

I could punch literally two seconds into 1:31 twice in the next three months and be fired

despite having 30% more production than 3/4 of my peers

I've never worked for a place that strict on time

fuck I've taken two hour lunches

mine is 20 minutes paid

50 hours a week fam

there's a dude here who's also waived his lunch break who works 70hr/wk

Damn

damn

and is good at his job

and is a bro

somehow isn't running the place

That's rough stuff

too much work

70 hrs a week

unless you are paid gazillions which you can spend on hooker and champaign and shit

to compensate

OT will burn you out

OT what

That many hours will kill everything about you eventually.

Overtime = OT

It's nice for extra pay, but it wears on you

And you're more susceptible to quitting/getting fired

and illness

JOBS ARE JAIL

I pulled some 50+ hour weeks in my last position. I felt like the pay wasn't worth the extra time lost there

Exempted position?

I was hourly then, so I got ot

Now I'm salaried, but it is pretty relaxed here

Won't work more than 40 a week for a long time

Nice. When salaried and required over 50 (ish) hours continually I always found the bargain becomes questionable.

Yeah. Agreed

I agree with the notion "jobs are jail." Knowing the illusion this may be, but with the right culture, leadership, and benefits jobs/work life can be quite enjoyable. Unfortunately firms that "do it right" are as common as unicorns rode by leprechauns.

I don't mean silo'd org's - I mean bottom to top "that way" although a silo'd org with the right people in the right seats can pull it off.

This is mandatory 50 hours
