Swift Terror Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 My other half's job is starting to drive her nuts. A short while ago, they started to require 20% overtime, no option. Then they began "working lunches"--that's right, you get to eat, but you have to sit in on a meeting the entire time. And last but not least, they are requiring her to stay after work to take additional training, instead of conducting the training during normal work hours. Arg, this may interfere with our sex life--no seriously, this sucks, this company is quickly becoming a nightmare.
Murmuring Beast Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 She might have been drawn in to some sort of cult religion and hasn't gotten round to telling you yet.
sfaJack Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 Oh, waaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Welcome to the real world. I work 7-5 every day (with a "working lunch" just like your better half), and overtime at least one week every month (unpaid, as I am salaried); it's just part of the job. If it's a big problem, she could always switch jobs. I hear places like McDonald's only require 32 hours a week or so.
