Greetings from Scotland, I'd gladly take a 40 minute workday ๐คฃ
I waltz in one minute before my shift every day. Not working for free.
I had to bitch slap my ostensible boss with this when I first started my current job. He tried to tell me that he thought it would really be "best" if I showed up approximately 30 minutes before my scheduled start time. I responded him flat out that if he wanted me there half an hour earlier, he should schedule me to be there half an hour earlier. Alternatively, you could try biting my feathered ass. I know which one is bound to get you better results.
I clock in when I get here, I get paid for the time I'm here. This ain't no charity.
I am now VP of the company. Make of that what you will.
... Feathered?
Are you really? How marvelous for you, and good for you for not putting up with it!
My CW shows up 1-2 HOURS early for NO reason at all as hers is a registration job and there is nobody there to register at 630 am. Drives me around the bend. She gets paid nothing for it and acts like a big martyr but how is that my problem? I show up, do my job and leave on time every day.
I have a coworker that always says she 'feels bad' when it's slow and there's no work to do. I straight up told her we also get paid to be available just in case there's work to do, not just to do it. I've also caught her clocking out and just sitting there waiting when it was the worst of covid a couple years ago and there was nothing to do for like 3 hours. We work in an office, it's how the job goes sometimes.
She's older and a propagandized republican corporate shill. It's unfortunate really.
That's a bit similar to mine. During COVID lockdown she had very little to do and yet she still came in 2 hours early. I think some people have no life but work, but it reflects badly on us who just want to do our shift and go home.
Should've reported the violation to the Department of Labor so that HR would be forced to chew her out for being too much of a corporate whore.
It's a small company. 40 employees, 12 in the office the owner and hr/manager are in an office next to us and we see them all day. The manager has told her not to work off the clock but also aren't too hard on her. Won't surprise you that half of the people in this office are/were related including this lady and both hr and owner. I probably should report but it's so small an office that it would be obvious it was me, I'm the outspoken one when it comes to these sort of things so they know.
