Guess again, if I'm 10min late nobody is going to take the assembly off my desk. I can miss a whole day and it'll be right where I left it when I get back, and the entire warehouse clocks in and out at the same time every day, so there's nobody to relieve literally nobody is impacted except the sniveling middle managers that have to eek out every inch of control and power they can over their subjects just to feel good about their miserable lives, but their bruised egos will heal, fuck them. If that single parent is late because they had to drop their kid at daycare there'll be hell to pay because how dare you not be here even though literally everything is fine.

OH but those salaried middle managers and HR? They can roll in whenever they want.

Edit: OH and if you weren't too worried about middle managing to actually listen to your "employee" here you'd have read:

(short of having to relieve a coworker or be on a line etc)

In my original comment, which makes your comment I'm replying to now completely unrelated as I had already covered that. We already agreed there.

That entirely depends on your warehouse. In my current one the union would be taking you out back and having words with you not me.

“OH but those salaried middle managers and HR? They can roll in whenever they want.”

That’s not true for anyone who manages shift workers. You need to be there when the employees are so you can you know manage the business. Im not even sure how you would conclude something so very very far for the truth.

Yeah? Well tell my egotistical middle managers and HR that they actually have to be here, because they missed the memo.

I'm not sure why you're so convinced your warehouse is the only warehouse, you clearly aren't at mine if you're questioning this reality.

Well too bad, you don't get to decide how other warehouses run especially when you don't even know what I build or even what industry it is, and your "belief" has no basis on actual reality.

Keep on middle managing, your ego needs it.
