Antiwork

I am an entry level manager for a corporation. The general manager has always been pleasant towards me, but recently (last couple months), he’s been really on everyone’s ass and I believe it’s because other managers aren’t fulfilling their duties completely. He also believes department heads (himself and my direct boss, for example) shouldn’t work more than 4 days and the departments should mostly be managed by their assistants with them overlooking. Although I don’t fully agree with this, my direct supervisor is a great boss and has earned her place at our company and I fully believe she should enjoy her life. However, I can fully complete my job and ALL my work tasks in a 5 day work week and I REFUSE to work 6 days a week just “because”. My GM confronted me since I write our department’s schedule and said I need to be here more…

Thought this whole situation seemed pretty anti work so I decided to share it here So Ive been recently working as a dishwasher at an old pub and have a situation with a particular person. You see dishwashing (at least where I’m at) is a two person job. One person rinses the dishes off and puts them in the machine and the other takes the dishes out of the machine when its done and walks around the kitchen giving the plates back to the chefs. I do the second job of taking the dishes out of the machine and my coworker (for the sake of this story lets just call him Bob) does the first job. Seems like an easy arrangement right? Well you would think You see Bob gives everyone a hard fricken time, some more then others basically the more you around him the more snarky complaining you…
