More work, less pay

I’m so tired of being expected to pick up more work left behind by people who were laid off and not being compensated for it. It’s not enough that we have to fear layoffs all the time, but we also have to fear what our job will look like after the layoffs if we are still here.

There is only so much you can have one person do before they break. And we are already nearing our limit. Most of my coworkers are always tired and unhappy. The company might find itself in desperate need of new employees very soon, since most of us are ready to leave on our own.

You really must be kidding

If you dont work on weekends and holidays or stay late , dont keep whining. You get fridays off, you get bonuses . You stay most likely in a new building (in an office?). You are employed after all. Be sure that Chinese will be cutting costs continuously so show to others how busy you are.

All work is being passed further down. You think managers are busy? Too many of them spending time on useless meetings. Nothing you can do but find a way to be more intelligent with your time.

No one is going to leave on their own, they all want the buyout. Also, while you are complaining about having a job think about all those that are out of work.
