GraveYard Shift BS

Sup Josh.
Just one extra shift that'll technically count towards next week's hours, I think...

 

Congrats!

 

Was there any doubt.

 

Not with us night shitters voting for him!

 

Night shift, day shift ......hell, any shift. The Man shoulda been a lobbyist.......and a nice truck too.

 

@gixxerphil talks so damn much, people probably voted for him just so he'd leave em alone

 

Could teach a Panhandler a thing or two. As a Public Service of course.

 

OT? That's the normal schedule at my work... 65 hours a week every week. Man it pays to be essential.

Joking aside, good for you, extra pay is nice during the holidays.

 

Most people here have schedules like that. I told them no. Weekend is the only time I get with my wife.
Normally I'd have told them no this time too but my wife is busy this weekend anyway so I figured I might as well.

Being essential blows. I'd love a free vacation. Or some of these nice covid-inspired schedules some of these people are getting. They extended our week because of covid and somehow that makes sense.

 

I'm still wet enough behind the ears that I don't get the option of setting my schedule. I get weekends off for family still at least.

Company I work for gave everyone a temporary two dollar raise for the first couple months of covid thanks to the government help for essential businesses or something like that.

 

Ah. The only time I pull OT is if they desperately need it or if my counterpart takes vacation and I have to cover.
We got ~$500 back in March for working during covid or something like that.

 

At least something is better than nothing. Rarely they have us work an extra day if something big breaks or if we're far behind on production for the month. Makes for a nice take home on those weeks, but stinks only getting one day off. Especially on an overnight schedule where "day" off is a loose term.

 

We used to have a nice 4/3 schedule but they changed it to 5/2 with the rona. 2 days off is barely a weekend on nights as it is. One day off definitely doesn't count.

 

Production guys at my work get 4/3, which I'm sure they like. I'm part of the "fix it" crew and we work 5/2 and use that extra day to really go through any machinery/bigger items that need more than an hour to fix.

 

I definitely got in b/c of "buddies" and have no problem saying so
I am proud of the way my truck is turning out though

 

Also, not working

 

Ears musta been burnin’.

 

Me either

 

I got a text asking if I could work yesterday. I'm at the point I want to do my 8 and then leave that place behind. They took away our cashing out ETO, so I'm not inclined to help out anymore. I hate it for my coworkers, but I'm still bothered by the companies decision to take away from us.

 

fuckem
