extra?

@Larimar yes, extra.

@waitingforgodo then don't! I'm just glad to only be required to do 40 and if I do more, I'm paid overtime. First time in my life. Normally the long hours and work till you drop is glorified. It's found to be counterproductive, however.

One job I was required to work 54 hrs a week. Boss then comes up to me and informs me that if I don't start pulling 60 hrs, I "won't go anywhere" and they'd hire someone for the position they'd trained me for two years for. Of course, it was salary. I told him "Oh, I'll go somewhere." He didn't believe me.

Hired some idiot while I was on vacation that had been a controller somewhere else and fired. He should've known better. I tried 5 times to show new guy one spreadsheet that he was supposed to take over from me. He couldn't understand excel. I then went in and told the Boss that I wasn't going to instruct the man anymore because he was a plumb idiot. He didn't believe me again. I told him that he could teach him and walked out. He never said another word.

During all this time while the new guy was there, I interviewed and found another job. Got the hell outta Dodge and told them that a woman with two small children and a husband in a wheelchair should never be forced to work 60 hr weeks. I found out two weeks later that I wasn't gone a week before they fired new guy. He was untrainable. All well and good for him to force others to do his work but he was incapable of doing it himself.

A few years ago, I found out that they'd totally changed their tune of hours and forcing "rules." Turns out the owner went home one day and his child who'd mysteriously turned into a teenager didn't know who he was and the owner got a wakeup call.
