I have a coworker that always says she 'feels bad' when it's slow and there's no work to do. I straight up told her we also get paid to be available just in case there's work to do, not just to do it. I've also caught her clocking out and just sitting there waiting when it was the worst of covid a couple years ago and there was nothing to do for like 3 hours. We work in an office, it's how the job goes sometimes.

She's older and a propagandized republican corporate shill. It's unfortunate really.

That's a bit similar to mine. During COVID lockdown she had very little to do and yet she still came in 2 hours early. I think some people have no life but work, but it reflects badly on us who just want to do our shift and go home.

Should've reported the violation to the Department of Labor so that HR would be forced to chew her out for being too much of a corporate whore.

It's a small company. 40 employees, 12 in the office the owner and hr/manager are in an office next to us and we see them all day. The manager has told her not to work off the clock but also aren't too hard on her. Won't surprise you that half of the people in this office are/were related including this lady and both hr and owner. I probably should report but it's so small an office that it would be obvious it was me, I'm the outspoken one when it comes to these sort of things so they know.
