You have a very privileged job if you're just allowed to just tell your employer no when they want more work out of you...
If my workload means I consistently have to put in more than 8 hours a day, it's my responsibility to report that. I have a contract for 40 hours a week, I'm not a slave.
You can report whatever you want. There's no assurance your employer will give a shit. The subject of this conversation was likely not on a 40 hour contract.
Then I'll start looking for another job... What kind of absolute dead end jobs are you guys working, that you have to be completely spineless? No wonder that conditions are getting worse and worse.
Lots of people have shitty jobs with shitty employers. That's just the way the world is. Not everyone gets to pick from their lot of potential employers.
A lot of folks here haven't actually entered the real world yet.
A lot of folks are also missing a backbone.
It is your duty to at least state how much work you already have and let the boss decide what to do.
I had a boss who acknowledged it and told me that it's fine if i'm not too accurate for couple of things.
Not saying anything, burning out and just delivering shit work non-stop isn't going to help either you or the employee, your job is to do your best and your boss has to figure out the rest.
Although i have to say i quit that job, because doing half-assed work is nothing which fulfills me.
What makes you think she didn't do that?
I didn't say she didn't do any of that, considering her story, it wasn't just the workload, nothing to gain from an environment this toxic. If you have any legal grounds to stand on, use it.
I think it's kinda weird there is not one proof of it happening yet, not a recording or anyone talking for or against it, we'll see how things turn out.
Not weird at all. If true, it would be unsurprising if they were hiding any documentation of it.
I expect, if true, there will be more whistleblowers shortly.
