Yeah , the dismissiveness (if that's actually a word) based on age , experience etc. Listening to the person's ideas then deciding doesn't take much energy .

When I was still in trucking, I'd take a couple weeks off at Christmas, coming back out (ending time off, getting back on the road) after New Year's Day. Most of the time, we wouldn't have any loads shipping during that week, so ... Every once in a while, dispatch would call and ask if I could get a load within 2-3 hours away before the end of the year (customer "needs the product off their yard"). We'd work out a compensation, usually a couple extra days added to the end of my time off. That company was GREAT. (It got sold while I was off work from a knee injury; out of a hundred drivers, I understand now there's 8; almost all of our trucks and trailers are sitting in one of a couple yards not being used..)
I know I keep saying this, but I love these. 🤣👍❤️ One of the maxims I teach in my real-world software engineering class (CS 428, BYU) is: The only way to effect change in your organization is to go in every day prepared to be fired. I heard that in a session at a software engineering conference in the early 1990s; the truth of it hit me immediately, and I’ve repeated it ever since.
we have atm a staff member who is calling in sick with only a couple of hours' notice, so our supervisor is having to scramble to get their shifts covered, and guess who's usually asked about that, so I printed out a tweet that reads "Let's normalize not confusing someone's free time with their availability" [Broderick Hunter, Oct 29, 2020] and pinned it to the office noticeboard
❤Brilliant! Management always wants to leave work early so they tell the team to be ready to work early too so I skip 1/2 of my unpaid break to be sure I get paid ALL of my hours to keep my hourly pay. One manager said I need to stay the entire time frame I’m scheduled, but then changed his mind by the end of the night. I made it clear that I can’t afford to lose hourly pay so either he approves the shorter break time or we can stay until the later hour. I love that he couldn’t fight me on this schedule. 😂
My job switched office hours to 9 hours M-Th and 4 on Friday. Core office hours are still 8-5, but we can shift where we get the extra one in. I start at 8, take a 30 minute lunch at 12:30, and end at 5:30. Sometimes, I shorten my lunch even more and leave a bit early since it's super unlikely someone will need me past 5:15
Still no good way of dealing with all that extra time spent on work travel- like when after work is done, and having to go to dinner with coworkers until whenever. That's OT as soon as the conversation becomes work related in my opinion. And your lost family time between after-dinner until bedtime... Need to cover this one next year at some point!
"if something urgent comes up, you can contact literally anyone else." "if it's an emergency, you can call 911." LMFAOOO! loved these rebuttals to the micromanager. 🔥
I never dealt with people who worked in departments I managed that way and had the lowest turnover and highest profitability in 3 companies I worked for. Being decent to people has great rewards.
This is why I love my union, it's all there in black and white (though it reads like stereo instructions with all the legalese) and any time they want to step outside that, it becomes a reminder that it's all discussed at the beginning.
If my contact says i work 9-5. Then that is what i work. Plus the the whole this is how we have allways done this. Is the company way of saying we will be going out of business in the near future. Companies need to understand that they need employees. Employees so not need them. Their is always a position somewhere elsee.
My working week was 7h.24 minutes a day, well if I felt in the mood to do that 😂. We had flexible working hours and provided the work got done, management didn’t really care. If a job needed completed, I worked a bit extra time - the extra hours were then added to my core hours of 37 hours per week and if I added enough extra hours I took a flexi day off and that didn’t come out of my annual leave entitlement….
Don't worry, the middle aged person who has been through a couple of lay-offs and doesn't have the narc-ey charisma to always land on the top of the restructuring pile, but has way too much to lose (health insurance can't lapse with your whole family depending on it) and knows how long it has been taking to get any job interviews, much less any at their current level, will stay and do the work.
Sorry - I will require ALL team members to provide an emergency contact before taking PTO. FYI, I have *never* called anyone when they are on PTO - we plan well for their absence, and I cope with the minor "urgencies" that come up, so my team can fully disconnect when using PTO. (I did call someone once: another team member passed away unexpectedly, and I didn't want the person on PTO to be surprised on their return)
@ I hire/fire employees. At my company that attitude would not last a second. We keep high value employees, not those only wanting to do the bare minimum. Those we let go.

"An emergency! You should call 9-1-1!" LOL. I also love "You know what else is high on your team? Turn over." Hahahaha.
On applications (and other forms):
Emergency contact: 911!
(I know it's supposed to be a family member, but COME ON!!)
🤣🤣🤣
"That's the way it's always been done." There in lies your problem!

Admiral Grace Hopper said something like that being one of the most dangerous phrases in the English language.
--- which is why the competition seems to be doing such interesting things.
"I'm not the long term solution for the company's lack of appropriate resource planning." Nailed it.
"They pay me to care until 5. After 5 I don't care on my own time"
Absolutely LOVE your last one!!
These responses are brilliant - I just need to memorise them!

You know what else is high on your team? Turnover.
The boss just got burned
Turnover!!!! What a wonderful response
Turnover sent me!😂😂😂
So many companies expect on-call status without the on-call pay.... no thank you!
I know I keep saying this, but I love these. 🤣👍❤️

Great editing, as always. The last one is just a perfect chef's kiss!

One the emotional support demon from clicky!
Well done! No donating time to big corporations. 😆
Your urgencies do not become my emergencies.
A fabulous compilation. ❤
ooooh, the very last one made me so happy!

Sassy Mondays 😂💕
What a great mash up of history. 🎉🇬🇧
My boss is kinda like this - and calls me at home. I work at a restaurant too, not an office. >.>
To say what , where do we keep the menus ?

“Part of your job description?” Oh so they don’t like it when “and other duties” bites them. Lol

OMG that LAST ONE! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I guess corporate ever got the memo that slavery was abolished.
I love these!
Most Excellent!
Turnover is a MOOD :D :D :D
Oh gal you make me laugh each n everytime.. 😂😂
bout time she made a compilation! thank you work bestie!!🎉
I am not sure why but she looks way prettier than usual. ☺
I would only consider working overtime if I got paid for it. Depending on the contract that is entirely up to me
Very apt & well done

Your lack of planning is not my priority.
"if something urgent comes up, you can contact literally anyone else."
"if it's an emergency, you can call 911."
LMFAOOO! loved these rebuttals to the micromanager. 🔥
Every teacher ever.
In the last segment, the final toodaloo could also have been proceeded by a comment like, “what is also high on your team is them QUITTING on you!!”
I swear i got a C U Next Tuesday mug just cause of these videos 😂
I feel like I'm in church! PREACH!!

Ooooffff, that last one was **fire**!

I love your videos. 💜💜💜👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
If your team has to stay late all the time to finish their projects then they really cant be considered high performers now can they?
🌞 Spot on! ⚘️

Offer coaching please. I wish so bad that I had your verbal skills!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do more videos on bosses.
If I had an employee with such a poor attitude, she would be gone in a week. Clearly a toxic employee and such a poor tude will spread to others.
I sincerely hope you're not an employer
and then theyre gonna wonder why everybody hates them
@ I hire/fire employees. At my company that attitude would not last a second. We keep high value employees, not those only wanting to do the bare minimum. Those we let go.
@@shinwaffle767 high value employees love it. It brings down the entire team when managers reward low value employees like this.
Yeah, imagine if everyone wanted to be paid for the hours they worked, or to not have to work on their time off.
The horror.
