what would you do when your job becomes a burden?

Or does being a dick like this get you off?

Say that to those who have been laid off and are having their life reduced to rubble. Losing their homes, cars, respect.
I'm sure that there are hundreds if not thousands that would love to have a job regardless of the hours.
Jacking a job off after nine years and bragging about it, is just another slap in the face for those who are losing everything. I personally know nine people who would gladly work those hours to keep their necks above water.
What if the job he was doing was for the war effort, making body armor or medical supplies, working flat out to meet each order. I don't know what job Daywane did, but one thing is certain: He has increased the workload of his fellow colleagues, and lost out on a future reference. If that makes me a dick for for not sympathizing Hypernova, so be it. :angry:

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.

Well yes if my house and financial existence was on the line - yes it would.
There have been times when I wished I had a few hours with my parents, but they were working all the time to provide clothes, food to eat and a roof over my head. They worked 60+ hours a week normally. To be honest with you (and I do understand the pressure) I used to work 72 hours a week, and I was on call. I knew how a doctor must have felt like as they pull those kinds of hours. I should also mention I had night school on top of that. I can only think that it runs in the family. My siblings are workaholics too. But I struggled on and didn't quit with three dependents. I do not have time for quitters, they irk me. Enough of the working man hero crap....
That is why I think you are an idiot, and especially so considering, you have had nine years of advanced warning. Nine years of work and you never made it to management? I wonder why? ::)

All work and no play made ark a ---meecrob---.
Cheffo, I don't think sympathy or empathy are in his dictionary.

Well, with the new health care reform, working for insurance may no longer be an option. (Please refrain from political comments, I do not wish to send this to P&R hell).
