"Mutual Benefit" is a key phrase there.
If a job is weird about overtime, you are at the wrong job.
I love Veronica, the character.
She is so great at pointing out this toxic garbage!
“No.” Is a complete sentence. The moment they say they’re not authorized to pay OT, the answer is, and always will be “no”. I don’t need a reason, I don’t need to explain. The answer is no. Go away.
Management not arranging adequate resources is not a reason for me to work for free.
If you are an hourly employee, working extra hours and not recording them is often timecard fraud.
These videos need to be a mandatory for all management. I love that the employee is able to articulate exactly what the issue is without muddying the issue with emotions. There's no lie in Veronicas' response. Only someone in management who wants to take advantage of it's employees, would be offended. This is a great way to response without being overly aggressive.
Dude! These skits r sooooo accurate! It's funny on one hand and yet sad on the other because employers really be doing this crap! 😂😮
I love this. I accommodated a manager last week by coming in 4 hours later than my scheduled shift. She lied about what I’d be doing and sent me home early. I helped her out and as a result got stuck doing something I hate and lost an hour and a half of pay. I’ll be getting very clear answers about what I’ll be doing and for how long before I do anything else to help her out, and if it doesn’t benefit me, I won’t be doing it.
The staff you’re not paying is where the overtime money comes from
If you're asking someone for a favor you really ought to work with them to help them get their own needs met as well as yours. It takes low social skills and A LOT of nerve to ask someone last minute to stay late and then be like, "no, you can't make up the time when you need it, only when I say so."
"We all need to pitch in a little more" "Yes, so pitch in a little more OT"
Whenever a manager says "We need people to pitch in"... They're not only about to ask for labour without compensation, they're sliding in the thin end of a wedge that's going to have you quitting sooner or later. Your employer has never gone into a bakery and expected to leave with free bread. They've never filled up at a gas station and expected to drive away without paying, Why do so many bosses imagine they can treat employees any differently?
It's not only because the manager gets paid more with a salary, it's also her being on a salary means she will get paid the same amount of money whether she's at work or not. They pay them salaries because they know sometimes they may have to work unusual hours. If there's some kind of company emergency, they can call the salary worker into work at 3:00 in the morning but they can't do that to an hourly worker without paying them additional money. So her saying it doesn't make sense for her to stay because she's on a salary is exactly the opposite.
"I'm sure it makes sense in your mind" 😅
self confident worker = managers nightmare
I'm willing to work if im getting paid
Had a convo like this. Said "Capitalism 101. You want work, I get money.
