When I worked as a cleaner at a supermarket I got moved to the evening shift which used to have two people who got laid off.
I was on my own and it quickly became apparent that the shift needs two people to actually get everything done. I pointed it out, but the section lead (incompetent nepohire who was literally kicked out of every other section for being a terrible leader) just decided I was being slow.
Even after I broke down the hour per hour workload, they just insisted I had to learn how to work faster. One "tip" they had was to just throw water everywhere and mop it up to save time. Let's not even get to the "mental health ping-pong table" they have.
Whenever I visit that supermarket today it still looks filthy.
Yeah, when CEO's tell you they're "currently understaffed" or you just need to "work faster" chances are 90% they just want to cut down wage costs.
If you aren’t overstaffed, you’re understaffed.
I did a few weeks for a using a bailer to crush cans. The team lead had worked out that you could do one pallet every 20 minutes. You could, if you did one pallet, but as you did more things backed up.
