Man, I’ve got STORIES to tell! Due to a lack of time, I can only say that the older I get, the more judicious I am about my employment. It’s also to the point where the older I get, the less patience I have. I don’t expect everyone to get it, and I’m mindful that some will. In other words, where I’m happy, appreciated, grateful, I can smell that SWEET “smell o’ heaven” at the end of the day, I’d rather expend my time and energies there any day of the week!
“Your time is limited. So don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is being trapped by other people’s thinking...”
-Steve Jobs, 1955-2011
What is hard is when you still have things to do after work and now they didn't get done. And you're exhausted and now you have to work weekends too. I don't mind working overtime sometimes but I can't live there.
I love the backgrounds. Fortunately I no longer have to deal with bosses. It’s wonderful being retired
I bet :)
Working to the point of disability is the expectation in corporate America. If you say something, you will be terminated.
See working over time at a job with scheduled promotions is nice, I work law enforcement and get great overtime opportunities and still get same promotions
"I need a raise cuz I need more bamboo" LOL
Those bamboo prices keep going up!
u explained too clear, huge thanks and encouragement to u ☺☺☺☺☺
Double thanks!
I'm 7 hours OT right now I'm clocking I'll be on this forklift for 3 more hours
i know this struggle well . good forklift ops keep the world Moving 💪🏽
Columbus is so cute working at the keyboard! I work on the weekend to catch up so I would be less stressed the following week.
Columbus is blushing! :) That's one way to work less hours during the week! :)
Hey Peter. What’s happening. Yeah, I’m gonna need you to come in tomorrow. N’k? We lost some people and we sorts need to play catch up. Oh, and I’m gonna need you to come in on Sunday too.
The equivalent to the blood alcohol thing must be true cause when I get no sleep I'm delirious and goofy in the morning.
I worked 60+ hours of overtime in these last couple weeks💪 Looking forward to my next paycheck. Keep pushing people!
This is really helpful.
Personally, I wanted to work some OT hours at my fast food restaurant to replace someone else’s hours (they quit), but thinking about it, the answers about productivity apply extra hard to fast food.
Yeah, you can work OT and get paid 50% more for a lot of “dead space” in the day because all of the money is made from the mid day rush, not from closing the store, or from not selling food.
If pay is defined as “What you’re worth,” you’re kind of not being paid what you’re worth, unless you really are filling that OT with something to do that assists productivity. But what exactly can you do there in the fast food industry? They’ve had decades to make everything fast and efficient.
This doesn’t change even if you’re being paid “the proper wage,” because then OT would kick in regardless and go way, way above that.
The case for it then drops from a productivity case to “Well, you basically have no life, so you need to be paid more.”
In a necessity-based, compensatory context, this makes sense. In a voluntary “I want money” context, not really, unless you can really prove that the work in OT is proportional to the pay increase.
There’s of course the problems of working more and more for work-life balance, but other things get in the way of OT.
i did lots of OT in fastfood . got whole workouts in on the clock . now-a-days you can run whole businesses on your phone on the clock during slow time . do research , learn languages ............ get paid . They need someone there . invest that money and now that money is working While you Sleep .
If you're working overtime. To get ahead of schedule they may like it but if they are paying you they will probably ask you to not work OT because it costs them more money.
oh god i know so many people that i work with in japan that work "overtime" or "hard". i call it working hard or hardly working. from what i know working efficiently is not something they like here. im the guy who gets things done ahead before it gets too crazy. that way in case something happens i still have time to fix it. like this year, i was pretty much done with most of my school documents (im a teacher) for february even if the government all of a sudden ended school super early. so we didnt have school in march but thankfully i was done, i pretty much didnt have much to do in the first few weeks of march but to tidy my things up and wait for the next work to come. i just ended up sorting the office or other facilities in the school.
For sure Jay! It's probably "working hard" AND "hardly working" :)
I work overtime, but my supervisors cut my regular time so I don't clock a lot of overtime...
Perfect at 5:38: work and live balance! That's the keys words:!
no one is every "too busy". You just choose to do other things. Clear your schedule and you'd be surprised.
For sure!
I strongly disagree with #4, my boss is a lazy pos, got his title by marrying big boss's daughter. He's the last one there and first to leave. We constantly have to do his work. Hence my 40+hours of OT every 2 week. And other workers see his laziness and also slack off creating more work for the hard workers.
me personally i work mainly for large companies. and i only focus on my work.
Gotta be a laborer or doing something laborious, I did it once and you can for one dollar on 12 hour shifts for 2 weeks straight as a helper in the kitchen. I made like 1600 dollars then quit.
Patrick: oh so this is the thanks I get for working overtime
Work expands to fill the time allotted to it. If you believe the job will take overtime to get it done it will.
It's here. Awww Columbus is really the boss isn't he Chris LOL 😆
He sure is!
I only work overtime to make up hours i lost or if I need more money.
I’m starting my second week on the new job, I ‘be been taking only 15 minutes out of my 1 hour break since day 1, as that’s what everyone does there, they all eat on their desk to “optimise time”. I’ve been going to the canteen and getting to know people from different sectors. They have no time to show me what I’m expect to do, therefore I can’t help them/do my job. Even though I’ve been staying minimum an hour an a half overtime simply because I have to wait for them to me me when to leave. I’m on an annual contract, not by the hour, the salary is low average anyway.
Today I asked if I’ll be getting paid for overtime or should I write down the extra hours to get free time whenever they can allow me. I might lose my job as everyone seems to do it quite happily, but if I can’t even plan the few hours I have after work for someone else’s incompetence on delegating, then I can see myself losing my motivation completely and simply leaving in less than a month. It’s such a such as I believe I have some much to bring to the company and everyone seems really nice, it’s near my house.
Woooo woooo its finally here!!
Woo Woo! Thanks for watching!
@@OfficeSurvivalGuide np, it was very enjoyable!
Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback!
Depends on your job. If you work in a hospital the job is never done. I’ll gladly take the overtime and bonus money they throw on top of it because they can’t retain employees
Great
Is it beneficial for me if I work overtime and I do not file for extra pay? I do not inform them that I work extra hours.
NEVER work for free
That panda is so cute 😂
what if your peers are all working overtime but you don't so they produce more results in the same time since they are as smart as you but devote more time to work. Now you don't get a promotion.
what about OT when the company pressures/guilts you into doing it on a regular basis.
I think you have to draw your OT line... and your company needs to know you have one. It's kind of like the movie Office Space... if they know you'll come in every Saturday and Sunday without any real pushback... then they'll always ask you to come in on Saturday or Sunday
@@OfficeSurvivalGuide with a cost of you get less pay than the peers.
i stopped caring about my coworkers guilt trip. they will let you go regardless. so just come in at 8a and finish 5p and go home.
What to do... Everybody does overtime, the work doesn't decrease, just increases, eventhough we are getting more and more people... (I know, the sales is selling more because we have 'more capacity').... Basically sales is getting crooked numbers on productivity levels because we are doing overtime work wholetime
Worked fifty sixty hours but has pushed himself the overtime money is adding up though I made like six extra grand this year alone next years tax return will be nice
Work on yourself is best thing.
Most people who get raises all the time are on their knees all the time if you know what I mean. You seem like one of them. 🤣
It's just that simple. 🤷🏿♂️
i'm leaving early today :-)
Sweet!
I was looking for a financial answer. Is there a break even point in working OT? I mean Tax wise. The more OT somebody works the more taxes are paid. At the end, It doesn't make sense to work all that OT just see a few extra bucks on your paycheck. And maybe paying some more at Tax season.
Hi RichardXD -- The way tax brackets work is you pay proportional to the money that you earned in that tax bracket.. The biggest jump if you are single is from $84,200 bracket is 24%, but the $160,725 bracket is 32%... so any money you earn over $160K gets taxed 8% more. But yeah... might be worthwhile to hold some of your overtime earnings back in savings in case you bumped in to the higher tax bracket.
I was searching for the song
Some of these not accurate because Some jobs like , Mcdonals , ain’t no such thing as “ let me come in on sat to finish making the burgers I was suppose to make yesterday night” so people work overtime to make extra money not to finish extra work , some jobs that true but a lot of jobs not relate to this
I work overtime because I need more money
More money, more problems
@@theredshadow360 More money less financial problems. Better life because you can afford to buy and do things. Money makes the world go round. Money is not the root of all evil. It is the route to success.
@@piledriverpotter9847 chasing money doesn't get you money! Chase problems then solve it. Money will chase you
Your words burn
I like Columbus voice
Thanks Cool Guy!
Yourwelcome
Depends how far you are from the next tax bracket ... per example for a single person if by working 40 hours you are in the 12 % and working over time doesn’t push you beyond the next bracket then sweet you’ll see the same rate of return... however if your over time makes you hit the next tax bracket ... not worth it that money gets tax at 22% which adding fica and 7.65 and your state taxes which in my state is 4.95% ... I have no dependents or deductions beyond my 40 hours so anything above 45 hours gets tax at 40 % ... now who the heck wants to over work for 60% ... and before you say I’ll see that money.. keep in mind that my 45 hours keep me in the bottom bracket any more than that and I still won’t get back any taxes back because that extra income still on that top bracket. Over time is not worth it when you are on the higher end tax brackets ... enjoy life
Lmao dude you're way off this so untrue
How so? Do you even know how income taxes work in Illinois? How your federal income taxes work?
Psh I just wish I got payed time and a half..... But I guess I am just an entitled millennial for thinking that.
