I’m not sure if my title makes sense. The roles in my job are basically managers, the teams of managers, and then the admin. Lately, in my work place the manager has been pushing for admin team to be on practically 24/7. This includes answering texts, calls, and emails even way after hours (scheduled hours are supposed to be 9-6, and we’ll get calls roughly 9-11pm afterwards). On top of that we’re told to stay equally as late as managers working (until roughly 8pm) and be available even on our days off, which was never pre discussed prior to being hired.
Reason being… “I have to stay long and I have to answer my phone no matter what when someone calls me… why would it be different for you guys???” That’s literally what you freakin signed up for lady! And you get huge pay with it! We’re admin so our pay is a far cry from what management gets, obviously. But she constantly complains about how she has to stay and do this and how it’s disrespectful we leave work before her and don’t answer our phones after hours/day off. I don’t understand the obsession with doing all this extra work for barely pay? Misery really does love company
