Antiwork

I work for an hourly rate in the hospitality industry, and am often required to put in overtime hours on the weekends. Myself and my coworkers at comparable positions are always sent home towards the end of the week if we are close to accruing over 40 hours. I worked 13 fucking hours on Saturday and got sent home yesterday after working 3. I’m so tired of it and it just seems like cheating. Is there anything I can do about it? I work in PA if that helps.

So I work in a team of currently 2 agents while the other 2 are being trained by management, and we are supposed to support 200-300 end users. On Friday my team lead wanted me to increase my workload by 30-40% without any pay increase. Um… fuck no. I sent him a Karl Marx quote with a picture of him as my sole response.

What would be the recommended course of action I should take to get the rate from my original SOW or am I just screwed?

Sorry this is long, but I think a part of me just needs to get it out. My partner and I worked for a very small mom and pop company. Husband (Robert) and wife (Nellie) owners, who hired my partner Jim, and later on me. Only us 4. Jim worked in the field and myself and Nellie mostly were in the office. Robert did a mix. Think trades type work. Robert has a unique personality. I strongly believe he has some untreated items like ADHD and possibly Bi-Polar. As a person in his mid 60s, he's fairly set in his ways. For context, they have always shared tools between Jim's personal vehicle, the company vehicle, and Robert's personal vehicle. It's the nature of the work and for us has always been this way. Depending on the equipment we may have several, or one. Some are Jim's personal items he uses,…

When I'm in a job interview for a salaried position, what is the most tactful way to ask if employees typically get to leave on time? I don't want to come across as lazy or unprofessional, but I would really like accurate information about the work/life balance at the job.
