You’re not wrong, but in the commercial/industrial building trades, we welcome it from time to time. I made about $3500usd that week.
Yeah, I’ve been there as well. But the older I get the more I hate companies counting on their staff to pull them out of their failed strategy. It’s great if it’s a once every few months event, but bosses tend to get too comfy with it, at least it was like that for me. And in my first job they didn’t even pay that much.

Yeah. I hear you. But, when you’re already making $40+ an hour, time and half makes it $60+, and Sunday double time makes it $80+.
I’m sure you can see the allure. You can make a lot of problems go away with that kind of money.
And that’s really the key. It should cost them a lot to put us in those scenarios. That’s why you need a good strong union.
100% agree.
