This high-performing service manager stopped working unscheduled and unpaid overtime after their boss demanded they work to their scheduled hours after they went home early once: 'I'm working my 9-5'

As Dolly Parton put it famously, "Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'."And that song became an anthem for 9-to-5 workers everywhere for good reason. The idea of giving your all to a job for years, only to have it dissolve into ether like it never happened the minute it is convenient for your employer is a theme that is all-too familiar.
