For context my job doesn't allow overtime however our CEO is an idiot and got rid of one of the systems we used without giving anyone time to put thought into how to replace it and, to put it lightly, the new system we ended up getting became a huge mess. Orders that used to take 1 day to package and put away for shipment now took 3-4 days. While we weren't forced we were expected to work extra to get it done. We all worked at least 8 hours of overtime the one week with some ladies from the morning shift staying until 1 AM to help get the orders done when they had to come back in at 7 for their normal shift.
The new system we use got updated so it isn't as bad but still messy. This week we did almost 2 1/2 hours of overtime and I decided that the very little extra bit on my paycheck wasn't worth much so yesterday I asked if I could go home early since we technically aren't supposed to have extra time anyway. Not only was I told no without explanation, I was given a huge attitude by my manager. As I am a vindictive person by nature and decided that I was going to leave early anyway. So I did.
I'm probably going to get in trouble Monday but I just don't care. This job honestly sucks and I don't get paid near enough for how bad it is. This isn't even the worst they've done I'm just really sick of it all.
