Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Huh. Manager waited until just now to indicate that he wants us to work this weekend on a thing we worked on last weekend, which was basically to cover his ass.
Coworker and I are Not Amused, and in fact we're Not Going To Come In, and also Not Telling That To Our Manager.
That's kinda exciting, shrift. In a very "from over here" sort of a way.

I should hope not!
Oh, wait, it's not a holiday next week most places, is it?
Well, still outraged about the working on the weekend and happy that it is Not Happening.

Would it be worth your time to Tell That To Your Manager's Manager? Because stupid management behavior should be documented by the higher-ups.

You work for Lumberg, don't you?
Perused the Ellis Island website, and despite the fact I knew the year of arrival and the name he presumably was listed under, I couldn't find my grandfather's record. The only thing I can think is that they spelled his last name even more different than what he used himself. I wasn't worried about first name, because we knew it had been changed to something very simple and very American. Still, bummer. I would have liked to have found the actual manifest record.
I don't know about the manifests at Ellis Island, but when my dad was trying to find his records (because he lost his naturalization papers. DO NOT LOSE YOUR NATURALIZATION PAPERS, any who have them. You think everything is recorded somewhere in triplicate in a government office, but it isn't, it's scattered to the four winds), he eventually tracked down his ship's manifest and was able to find everyone in his family except himself, because the manifest had been bound and his name ended up in the binding.
his name ended up in the binding
That's got to be one of the wierdest cases of identity theft, ever.
Murphy was clearly running things.

Exciting? But you punch people in the head for fun.

Well, at my place of work, weekend work happens all the time. Only I'm so tired right now that I was planning on sleeping all weekend, and waiting until 4:30pm on Friday to say something about it? Cowardly.
Would it be worth your time to Tell That To Your Manager's Manager?
Not so much. It's Friday at 5pm. There was nobody to tell Friday at 8am. And besides, he'd just blink and ask us why we didn't want to work the weekend.
