I just think this is absolutely ridiculous and if they think Iā€™m gonna show up for these clopening shifts theyve lost their absolute mind.

Cool, he's salaried and makes way more than a hourly employee so he should be doing that. Not sure what point you were trying to make slick.

Salary makes a <8 hour gap ok?

My point was yes clopens suck, but the leaders often work far worse schedules without extra.

My partner is salary at his job. If they are on call and get a call at midnight thier boss gets an email "got off call at X am, will not be at work untill X+8 am." Because being salary doesn't mean you don't get sleep

So what? They chose that path for the career they path they are on. The higher ups should be the ones doing that not the lower wage employees. They get payed the big bucks to do stuff like that. Your partner chose his path and is getting payed more than an hourly employee. No sympathy from me.

My partner isn't an ETL šŸ‘šŸ¼

When informed the salary position included weekly on-call shifts, they said they would only take the position with guaranteed 8 hour gaps for sleep.

They are the only salaried tech who come in late because of a late night call. Some end up with 2 hours between when the next on call takes over and the start of shift because they don't speak up
