Last week was bad especially, I don’t remember ever having a bigger workload in my entire career. Is there no limit when it comes to overloading employees who are still here?
I'm not planning to work anymore to make certain rich people become even richer. I hope to get an offer soon from some company where worker's rights and limits are respected.

Many years ago i worked for a chemical refinery company as a Millwright in the maintenance dept. Company wide there was just 132 employees (plant & office personnel). We kept the plant running but we weren't making enough money or getting enough new contracts to satisfy Corporate. After a year and half, the owner said enough and came out to the location and fired everyone in the office building except the receptionist. He had a new team in there within days. He also stated that he worked from the ground up to get where he was at and he understood that the problem exist in the office and not in the plant. The people in the plant were doing what they were told to do, which is controlled by the front office. He said to make a change needs to come from the top and not the bottom of the ladder. We saw a profit in the following years.
I wonder if sales constantly complaining about margins and how we can’t compete because of our costs has anything to do with that..
Until you quit or unionize.
Join the great resignation. Let them realize investors and c-suite aren't the only ones who should benefit.
Our labor used to earn us a house and picket fence and retirement. Now our kids will do the same jobs with more technology and earn more money for their bosses yet be lucky if they can afford to pay off student loans or a medical bill. Why? The greed of the rich and the owners.
They'll bombard you with media they control every day telling you it's immigrants or the poor or freeloaders.
Then they will cut your benefits and do everything they can to keep you down if it earns them another bonus. Pointing their fingers at social issues or blaming the other side if they dare try to help.
Not race, not age, not gender, not religion - it's all class war, it always has been, and you're at the bottom and you're losing to them.
NOV just makes the big shots at Parkwood rich. They keep telling us they want more sales but can’t get enough from supply. Call manufacturing and they say they can’t produce because their equipment they’ve been provide is all broken down and cramped in some small building north of us in Canada. Seriously who’s bright idea was that? Oh some one at parkwood that isn’t being held accountable but blaming us in sales amd he’s own team for lack of performance. Maybe stop blaming the people and take a look at yourself mr svp
Bring on the PIES!
Good luck Buddy!
You’ll just move over to help some other rich corporate cockhound get richer.
Your best bet, find what you love to do, you will never work again.
END CORPORATE GREED!
