I just recently started working at a rehab facility. The turnover/burnout rate is very high. Just about everyone is criminally underpaid (mini wage), including my inexplicably highly motivated supervisor. She is very good at her job. She often comes in to work talking about how she did prep work at home, and she regularly comes in on her day off to “take care of a few things.” In short, she works off the clock.
This troubles me, but I can't quite articulate why. Does this devalue her work, and by extension, mine? Is she propping up a company that needs to pay people more? Is she making the rest of us look bad?
Any insight would be appreciated. I'm already preparing to move on, but this question is occupying my mind. Thank you.
