So I went from usually 40 Regular and 15-17 Overtime to essentially 48 Regular and 7 Overtime, so my check was significantly less due to less 1.5 time.

I don’t want better hours or wage I just don’t want to work, never. No unions just unmediated hate

I'm a manager and recently had a meeting with the CEO. He starts off by showing me a video about navy seals and how they'd rather have an incompetent but trustworthy (bootlicker) team member than a competent one.

He follows that up by heavily implying that if I want further advancement in the company I need to be in his inner circle and I can achieve that by spending off work hours doing off work things with him. I'm now looking for a new job. FYI, I was in the quadrant that is competent but not…
