Neither of my jobs gave me a break today. 12 hours of doom. My feet hurt and im too old for this. Im also starving and thirsty

My feet feel so sore theyre pulsating and feel slightly numb

Isn't that illegal? You should tell them you need a break.

@ArminArlert I worked 4 hours one place and 8 at the other

@SW-User 8 hours by law is 15 minutes. Threaten them with slave labor.

@SW-User Even so, I think the job you worked eight hours should have given you a small break.

@ScarletWitch they won't care

@ArminArlert at least a 15 minute break. I know it'sbusy and we are understaffed but everyone else got a break it seems

@SW-User yes they will. It's law. Slave labor. No break in 8 hours. U could literally sue them. And they don't want that. The company isn't there to protect the employees. Stand up for yourself. Or do Nothing!

@ScarletWitch I think it depends on what state you’re in because there is no federal law that mandates that you get any sort of break during the workday

@zerofuks2give I think you need to relook into your laws.

@ArminArlert I know it depends on the state. In mine breaks aren't mandatory and some people take advantage of that
