Doesn't matter how hard you work, an employer always wants more.

From september first to sixth there a big boat show in the Netherlands called the HISWA wich is one of the largest shows in Europe and we had to get three boats done for the show but due to some people (who do office work at the shipyard, it's walways them) the planning was just terrible as usual so the carpenters and painters had to get three days of work done in one day. This meant working through the night wich nobody was happy about. I felt really bad for them so even tho I'm not a painter or carpenter I offered to help them and also work through the night doing various chores and just helping out wherever possible after I had finished my regular work. This morning @ 6AM in the morning after working 22hrs in a row everyone was completely exhausted and we all knew there was just too much remaining work and we wouldn't get it done. So in comes our employer and even tho he could clearly see we were all half ****** the stupid asshole asks if we could stay a few hours longer. What the hell does he think, that we're robots or something?! We were all very pissed of @ him for asking so we just left, we just couldn't go on anymore. I'm telling you, employers are all the same. It doesn't matter how hard you work, it's never enough :mad:

But that's not even the worst part. He told us the boats had to leave @ 8 o'clock this morning wich was a lie. They had to leave @ 12 o'clock in order to be in time for the HISWA :mad:
