It’s maddening!
I’ve started a new job in inventory at a warehouse and it’s basically all boomers on the inventory team besides me. I’ve been here 3 weeks and so many of the boomers have been overworked with no problem with it.
A couple times now when I’ve mentioned me taking one of our 2 assigned 10 min breaks a boomer has made the same joke: “What’s a break?”
Literally a new hire on her third day here today asked what she’s supposed to be doing on her 10 min break(she’s a woman in her mid 50s).
Like wtf sort of question is that?????
How brainwashed do you have to be to not want breaks or even think you deserve them?
She ended up coming back to work after sitting for 3 minutes…
