Hi all,
So I work at this small fabrication company (11 employees total) and I'm the engineering tech here. Although that's my job title I end up doing a lot more than what was described in my job description; anything from quoting orders to operating machinery and doing quality assurance. Recently I have been completely swamped and my workload is insane, I confided in my higher up about drowning in my workload and how I'd like some help. He told me “We have overtime opportunities available on Saturdays”
He completely disregarded my inquiry for assistance by suggesting that more time to work would help. I felt very belittled because I'm not one to ask for help, but to be treated as such was more than I could take. Working more hours wouldn't lessen my workload which is the issue. I already do too much for this company and I'm getting fed up with it. I've been here going on 3 years and I'm going on 24 years old. What should I do?
