Ever had a coworker vanish mid-shift and never come back? We had a dishwasher step out for a smoke break and basically evaporate with apron still hanging on the hook, phone left in his locker, like he was raptured by the universe. No explanation, no goodbye. I still think about that guy. Got any epic disappearance stories?

Haha I've done that. Long ago working a gig banquet job and the conditions were horrible. Disorganized, lazy employees, rude management staff. "Hey I'm going to run to the restroom." I kept walking and never returned. Funny thing is I got paid for the entire shift though direct deposit plus gratuity 😅

I’ve definitely been that coworker haha. I was actually the supervisor and I was just over it thanks to be tag teamed constantly by a coworker and our manger - I pray you guys never reach that point lol

That’s profound! The rapture.is anyone ready for that discussion. This is the deepest post ever. A co-worker vanishing? Yes. But leaving the phone behind, never to be seen or heard from ever again? Hmmmmmm

We had a hostess slip out without a word a couple years ago. She was a good worker in the short time she was with us too, which made it extra weird. I tried calling and emailing, never heard back though.

Never seen this happen at any of the restaurants I've worked at, but we've had plenty of customers vanish without paying their bills haha.

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
