Schedule 8-5

Posted by Siritosan@reddit | sysadmin | View on Reddit | 4 comments

So our of no where our Project management team decide to meet a customer 8-5 to 6 am due to nature project(Pc deployment). Project runs into August with same schedule and not staggered to get a break on schedule for regular tickets for support. Would you quit due to massive schedule change? Without proper resources to cover support.

It's a project. You have to expect these things in this industry. If someone is paying big bucks for a 4 month project why are you afraid and going to jump ship? Sounds like you want your work life to cater to your needs. Good luck with that though, remember, you're there to work when there's work. If you don't pull your weight when it's needed they'll find someone else that will.

Correct, but expectation too is to take care of other support tickets for other locations. The company talked for months they will have resources to cover support, but it didn't happen. Support tickets are another 40 hour animal so basically is either project or support. It is not happening. I expected project time to be 1 or 2 days night or morning and rotating it but not every day. Yes, it is call work life balance. Sure, they can find someone else.

>8-5 to 6 am I'm not understanding this. Does this mean 8am to 6am, i.e. no coverage between 6am and 8am? >Would you quit due to massive schedule change? The question isn't whether we would, but whether you would. I've seen people stay for worse, and leave for less. Personally, I'd give it a go for a few weeks, then make a decision.
