| If your company: * needs HVAC, mechanics, and electricians to function and deliver revenue * your company cannot afford to hire new people, only maintain their current payroll, or are unwilling to raise wages to be able to hire more (not enough talent) * you are able to do all three, but are being asked to do more than want or are able to do then there's a simple outcome that to me it seems like you're missing. you can just say "I can't", or "no, I'm going home at 6" or "cool, that's a great plan but I only have time to do the first half of the tasks you just described today", and most importantly - your company simply won't be able to afford to do anything about it. What are they gonna do? Fire you and be even more fucked? Seems like if you set firmer boundaries on how much you can work, their best decision is going to just be accepting it. Because their only alternative is to even stupider which would be to fire you and have no work get done at all. |
When I brought up I have yet to get my float (4x10s considered the 'easy' shift) I was told there was nothing they could do. All I could think was well how will you handle it when I leave?
Management really is that dense.
They care not one whit about objections nor people leaving.
Imho it's merely a matter of time but the younger guys all hold out hope. I've none left.
