My coworkers give me shit for not working late all the time. Like, I work late when I absolutely have to or get permission to make up missed time. I refuse to stay just because lol.

Have you tried hating your home life?

[–] LaunchesKayaks 4 points 8 months ago

I have not. Think I should give it a try...?

At my last job, I would clock-watch like a kid in school and bolt out of there when it got to be 5. No fucking way was I staying there any longer than I had to.

Soon I'm going to be part of our safety management team, I respect this type of attitude. I don't want all of our employees being exhausted all day, that's dangerous. Go home, get rest, relax, come back 100% tomorrow. Any other attitude is unsustainable and irresponsible. I do appreciate the need to SOMETIMES work overtime. I'd really like to understand the positive feedback loop that's involved with excessive overtime but that's not my specific field of study.

Same tho. Like, I do my job well when I am expected to work and work over when absolutely necessary. I think that's good enough lol.
