My new company… 1)If you’re late by literally 1 minute, you need to use .1 of sick/personal time to make up for it 2)For whatever reason, we’re prohibited from having a FIRST AID kit on the maintenance floor Add to the list… ---

If you need a bandaid, you’ll have to go to the medical center, then you’ll have to report to your bosses that you’re a klutz and smashed your hand with a hammer by accident. Then they’ll tell you that all accidents are preventable. Ask you why you weren’t wearing the hammer-proof gloves?! They’ll keep track of the 5 papercuts you got in a year, then fire you because you’re not “safe”. If this guy gets papercuts, what’s next…?! An OSHA recordable incident. Questions get asked, safety bonuses to managers don’t get paid… Workplace safety is a joke these days. Where are you working Travis?? ---

Are you working in a machine shop or something? punch clocks for stickler cock sucker management is more counter productive than anything else. My highschool and little after job I worked at was a punch joint too back in. We would rotate on who would come in on time, and punches all of us in, and the rest showed up a little late. Lunch time, same early dude punched us all out after the others have been on lunch for 10-20 minutes. then at the end of the day early guy left early, and tomorrows early guy stayed to the end and punched everyone out and was on early duty the next am. rotated it like clock work. we were smart too and the punch guy would punch 2 cards, take a piss, and punch the other 2 a min or so later so it wasnt obvious. never got caught it was gold! ---
