My coworkers give me shit for not working late all the time. Like, I work late when I absolutely have to or get permission to make up missed time. I refuse to stay just because lol.
At my last job, I would clock-watch like a kid in school and bolt out of there when it got to be 5. No fucking way was I staying there any longer than I had to.
Soon I'm going to be part of our safety management team, I respect this type of attitude. I don't want all of our employees being exhausted all day, that's dangerous. Go home, get rest, relax, come back 100% tomorrow. Any other attitude is unsustainable and irresponsible. I do appreciate the need to SOMETIMES work overtime. I'd really like to understand the positive feedback loop that's involved with excessive overtime but that's not my specific field of study.
