You have to have inside communication with your coworkers. A weird little song. A meme. A look. A hug. A- go sit down I've got this. The more you give and treat each other with kindness and respect- the more fun you can have.

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
