There’s one guy on our team who does just enough to not get fired. He shows up on time, does his sidework, but that’s where it ends...never helps when we’re slammed, never offers to run food, never says yes to a pickup shift. He’s not technically doing anything wrong, but we’re all picking up the slack. It’s starting to wear on morale. Would you call it out or just let it go?

Call it out. If he wants to coast, he can do it somewhere else. Dead weight kills a shift faster than bad guests.

It sounds like you should be calling out management for keeping you running understaffed so consistently. Sure, he could be doing more to be a team player, but no one should be expected to pick up extra shifts.

Maybe bring it up to your manager? I feel like having a fellow employee call it out won't do anything but make him resentful since you've got no power to enforce things. Hearing it from a manager might without making him angry at you.

How do I figure out spending with my SO? Initially I was paying for 90% of stuff (no actual bills, just going out). I talked to her and said we need to be more even. She was never proactive. She kind of got offended but we ended on a good note to split things. It went well for a couple weeks but now it's back to normal. She never takes out her card and only venmos me if I send her the request. She lets Venmos sit for weeks before paying them. I still let a lot of things slide.

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.
