Antiwork

My employer has forced me to sit in an office and twiddle my thumbs all day so they can claim I've been responding to an emergency. At the rate things are going I may end up working 16 hours, possibly be forced to come in again tomorrow. Anyone know which agency is charge of reimbursing them? Company wide it's going to be hundreds of hours not actually worked but written off.

To give a little context, I'm an American truck driver of ten years, I now completely lost my passion. 2022 alone began vary well, started a company with a friend and we were rollin' we had lost 1 truck to major mechanical failure and another to a vehicle fire.

Not my business, so I’m not sure if it’s a current condition, or side effects of prior illness, because she’s clearly uncomfortable when it comes up. We had an incident with the vents failing, so the area was full of smoke. We are all exposed to the smoke, but her area was especially bad. She was back and forth a lot, complaining she didn’t feel so well. At first it was mild nausea, until she began to say she felt dizzy. After that, I’m not sure how long later, there’s a mild commotion, and apparently she’d downright collapsed from…

Realizing how horrible some of these Christmas carols are.
