Here's a friendly reminder that the words "mandatory" and "requested" do not mean the same thing. This Redditor shared that their workplace is "requesting" that all of their employees put in three hours of "mandatory" overtime per week during the month of June. This is obviously a ludicrous concept and not just because "mandatory" and "requested" are not the same thing.
More importantly, one has to wonder if all the employees in the company are expected to put in overtime, wouldn't that potentially amount to the number of hours for a full-time (or at the very least part-time) employee? In other words, wouldn't it just be easier to hire more people? The system of scheduling said overtime hours seems to be a ridiculous waste of time on top of all this as well.
