I have had nothing but good feelings since then.
Boss know knows I really am fed up.
Yes I did chose to work there. ( 9 years ago)
since then we have gone through 4 presidents , each time it goes from bad to worse.
When I took the job , over time was voluntary. now I am mandatory 10 to 12 hrs a day Monday - Friday 8 hours Sat and Sun
This has been going on for many months
It was Management bad decision to get rid of 3rd shift , I now realise there thinking.
stretch............... the other 2 shift into over time and not have the the benefits and tax burden.
same amount of parts if not more at the worker's expense.
I have to much time and effort involved to just up and quit with out a fight.
My Factory is Japanese Comp. The new set of bosses think there still in Japan.
I have no problem with a 40 hr work week or some over time. but 56 to 64 hrs every week for months on end ?
we can not use our sick time any more, that counts against our attendance.
if you get above 1.3 % you get a verbal, 2% right up
not fair when most of the factory is still at 40hrs a week.
It is not fair to my family or my self .
short term I can deal with. This is well past short term and there is no plans on fixing it,
I was in the back of my head wishing to be fired.
also vacation time must be put 1 month in advance and if either of the 3 other guys has it planned then to bad.
Chris and my self on 1st shift
Steve and Mike on 2ND shift

Please....
You are an adult.
You have worked at that place for 9 years.
You are thinking about yourself and not others.
You chose to abuse your boss instead of working your problems out like an adult.
That tells me you are an idiot.
That also tells me you are an idiot for throwing away a very good reference for the next employer.
But you know that already.
I am not impressed with your resolve, and I'm sure your bad decision will follow you for some years to come. ::)
daywane:
So your home life is for sale?
That tells me you are an idiot :dizzy:
like I have stated this has been going on for many months.
you do not think I have not tried to talk it out first?
we had a group meeting. 1st and 2nd shift.
we had hopes of working this out. we were told by management before we could say jack!
" you people are grade 7. the highest paid. we expect more from you"
end of meeting.

ark, take the branch out of your ass, and show at least a smidgen of compassion.
Or does being a dick like this get you off?

Its easy to say "Way to go man, you stuck it to the man! Let 'em know how you feel!" or "just up and quit, you'll show 'em!" when its not your paycheck! Although you should have the opportunity to speak your peace, but most find the 'open door' policy to be false as the door gets slammed in your face!
Now you know why I'm so pro-Union and have a voice when my labor agreement comes due! I have learned over the years, take the 'At Will' status of employment away from the equation, then your employer listens a little better!
