The electronics company that I work for ventured into the car battery manufacturing sector a few years ago. It started out as one line and then last summer a second line was added with a third one setting up in the near future. Employees have come in knowing that the shifts are 11-12 hours a day/55+ hours a week. Most recently, because of a labor shortage, there was mandatory overtime forcing us to work up to 7 days a week. While most of us don’t want to work every single day, we all came aboard knowing we’d be working overtime. So now after a recent hiring craze, our thank you for standing by the company through unprecedented times is a reduction in pay. They are forcing us to vote on a schedule change that will have us working as little as three days in a week. One of the options is for us to quit WTF. If I could get a couple dozen people to vote that they would quit, it might send a message to management. Under the new schedule we’d average less than 40 hours per week. They can’t mess with our livelihoods like this!
Here’s the link to vote, deadline is tomorrow. They informed us on Monday via sheets of paper with a qr-code taped to various doors and left by work stations.
