It sucks because we all want to perform to the best of our ability.
Our union said it best: Things wont change if they see that you can still do the job with the bare minimum.
So hurt their wallets. Food and drinks take twice as long to go out. The public areas dont get cleaned properly. Open late because you have to do all the prep night shift didnt have time to do,
If you're not getting promoted, it's not because you're not good at your job. It's because you're good at ONLY your job.
