This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

not OP

I've had numerous jobs that had 'unwritten rules', such as being in, dressed, and ready to clock in 15 minutes before the shift starts. Being 1 minute late 3 times in a month was grounds for dismissal. It's the old way that everything wanted to work.

If the job market is bad and managers are tyrants, you end up being soft-forced to put in more time.

If you don't do it, you prob won't get fired, but you prob also won't get raises in hopes for attrition.
