Regarding the issue of managers working overtime

2015-07-23View Original

Thread Content

Since our project is scheduled to be operational in 3 months, the installation company is working overtime right now. Their working hours are from 7:00 to 11:30 in the morning and from 2:00 to 7:00 in the afternoon. The people on our project team now have to work during these same hours; there are meetings at 8:00 p.m., and then work continues until 9:00 p.m. There’s no time to go home at all. Now everyone is discussing whether this working pattern is acceptable Can efficiency be improved?

In special circumstances, when there’s nothing that can be done, one just has to follow the leader’s instructions.

Either drive back by yourself or ask the company to send a car to take you back. As for how to discuss this with senior management, it depends on your communication methods and the manager’s personality. Working an extra shift from time to time is also normal; after all, before driving, one has to be there whether there’s anything to do or not, out of fear of unexpected incidents or important things being overlooked. We welcome you to participate actively in the events – wealth and tangible rewards are waiting for you! Not only weird ideas can be shared – interesting ones can also be posted! It’s not just pictures that are allowed; drawings are also acceptable.

This way of working is not ideal, but special situations require special handling; there’s no other choice but to grit one’s teeth and persevere – 3 months will pass quickly.

Perseverance leads to victory. This is also the only option available

Driving is not wrong, right? Bring Level 1 equipment along with Level 1 items. I feel much better when I get paid.

It’s not always like this; there are always special circumstances, and leaders need to handle them as appropriate. It’s also a case of having no choice due to the constraints of form.

I have encountered this situation in my projects as well; it’s not necessary for everyone to be present every day – shifts can be arranged. As for the meetings of senior leaders, they can be scheduled in advance.

This is a critical moment; it may be tough at the beginning, but the work that follows (pilot production and what comes after that) will be easier. It’s only 3 months – just hold on through it. The leadership is watching; if not now, then when? I won’t forget you when it’s time for promotions and raises

The period before driving is the most crucial time, as well as the golden period for training.
