‘Boss asked me to show team spirit and come in unpaid’: Job asks employee who just worked 6 days straight to come in for a 7th day to ‘volunteer’ unpaid, employee quits on the spot
Some people take too many liberties when it comes to work. We all have different definitions of it, I suppose, but it boils down to being paid for services.
