I'm not sure I'm glamorizing it. I even mentioned it's stressful and undesirable. It's wasn't an enjoyable experience for me and I even used my associates degree to move out of my over time position to a job I liked more. (Also, I wasn't on call. I made sure I was able to have set hours.)
Look, I'm sorry you seem to be struggling to find a job. I get it. I was simply stating it's doable for many to work 10 hour shifts on top of college. It's hard and you *should not* do it unless necessary.
Look if you want to have mandatory overtime and always be at work and have no home life, freinds or anything outside of work, that's great. The majority of warehouse is like this and you don't get to choose your hours, they do. If you into that fantastic. Please respect not everyone wants that like you. I mean if you gonna have mandatory overtime might as get a job that pays decently. Warehouse just isn't that. It makes more sense to do electrical or construction or something like that if that's the case. Also I wasn't doing 10 hour shifts idiot. I was doing 12 and more and mandatory overtime. I'm sorry it's not realistic to be working 5-6 days a week with 12+ hour shifts and one day off if lucky and do school where you have to physically show up twice a week. I mean if you married to your job and that's all you care about okay great! I am not sure how else to explain this in a way that makes sense to you.
I'm not sure you're understanding me either to be fair. I am repeatedly telling you I *did not like it*. I did not like my circumstances. I hated it. I was essentially forced to do that. I genuinely hated have no spare time and would never do it again.
My point was not to say it is enjoyable. It is not. Those two years were arguably the worst in my life at that point and time. I very rarely got a chance to enjoy life. I did not want to be married to my job. I did not want to do factory work.
But I had to. I literally had to if I wanted to survive. I shouldn't have had to, but I did. No one should *have* to do that. No one. Not me, not you, not a single person in the world should be forced to have zero personal time. I did it because both I and my girlfriend would have literally been homeless. It was my *only* option.
Jfc. Where on earth do you keep gettint the idea I loved the experience?
Would it make sense if I put it in a math equation? Do you understand math? Okay so imagine there is 7 days in a week. 24 hours in a day. Now imagine 4 of those days are 10 hour days. So right now that is fourty hours. Now let's say you signed a waiver that says they can add up to two days and can add hours to shift whenever they feel like. That you agree to this or you can not have the job. Now let's say since it's a warehouse that's always busy you can realistically expect to work after extending you two days and adding two hours each shift that you now work 6 days for 12 hours each day. Now explain to me how you get to college for two of those days when you at work all day. Is it possible? Can you do math? Did you work these kind of hours at the warehouse becuase you to dumb to do math? Please stop responding until you figure out the math equation. Since everything you are saying is not relevant in the slightest and nobody cares.
IIN it's so hard get fulltime hours
