I love the circles these standard systems make. My last job would increase pay every now and then because of poor attrition rates. Then they’d increase the standard to match the increase, gaslight anybody who’d complain and then be shocked when the attrition doesn’t change and now the old workers are pissed off.
I feel this.
At my last job (automotive manufacturing: production) we got a total of an hour of break over the course of our 12hr shifts.
You know what really pissed off the managers? When they found out we were rotating through breaks all day long.
Hahaha. Fuckers.
Did you make your numbers? Then mgmt can fuck right off
If you get your job done following safety rules etc. why should number of breaks matter? So yeah.
Management: if they hit the numbers while taking extra breaks, that means we could raise the numbers higher and not have to pay them more?
Also management: We need more temps, our turnover rate is terrible! No one wants to work anymore…
