This sounds like it was a good one to get off your chest! I know the feelings, I’ve worked with people often who don’t understand work safety. I got a cut on my hand once at work and immediately went over to employee health to make sure I had it documented and a colleague of mine said I was acting like a child and she had gotten all kinds of injuries at work without saying a word. I told her about a former coworker of mine that got a simple cut on her hand and now she’s permanently infected with MRSA and disabled for life, with her arm being full of fluid and swollen. She brushed it off still but the woman who got infected ended up getting fired from the company because they didn’t want to keep paying her disability. Companies don’t give two shits about you, they will replace you at the earliest possible moment is what I learned and I won’t sacrifice myself for that shit.

The workload and efficiency is another thing that’s funny and annoying. The older generation is more of the nature to take on the burden by themselves and keep the knowledge close to their chest figuratively speaking without sharing with others. They think it’s job security but it’s really not. It’s inefficient and the younger generation like what sounds like you and I are in are about efficiency and productivity. More hands speed up the work and allow higher throughput. They don’t understand that though because they’ve done it in one way for so long.

I have been in all these situations and more! Just keep on going, they will eventually retire and we can move on!
