    Since when does them needing you to work overtime, mean you need to work overtime?

      Since if you decline they fire you. Yeah, this doesn’t make sense since now they’re still out someone for that shift AND out other shifts. But managers aren’t logical or reasonable when they pull shit like this: they’re vindictive.

        In their eyes, it’s more important to serve notice to the general workforce on what happens if you refuse versus the importance of any particular shift.

        Luckily they can’t fire you for that in Germany. To fire you, they would have to sue you.

          In most of the US you can be fired for basically any reason even down to they dislike the color of the car you drive.

            In my US state, you can be fired for “no reason” also.

            The US doesn’t have any real worker protections. And one political party in particular is trying their damnedest to remove the few we do.

              “one political party in particular”

              CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS. Don’t sugarcoat it, CALL THEM OUT BY NAME. Otherwise they’ll just pretend it’s not them and do their damndest to act like they’ve done nothing wrong.

              Even the ones who aren’t actively protesting on behalf of the conservatives are still voting for conservatives, who end up making the claims that they can never produce sufficient evidence for.

            “I fired them because I disliked the color of their…car. Yeah that’s it.”

            You can be fired for any reason, including illegal ones, because it’s so easy to just give a different reason officially.
