For many weekends, bonuses are unnecessarily offered, leaving me with nothing on my regular shift Sunday. Because I have busy weekends living my life, I lose out on working for a bonus AND a day of work. That's unnecessary overstaffing, imho. Again, I'm otherwise quite pleased with TT.

Sundays

I have taken it up with management. Yes, I understand wanting to be caught up on Mondays. Yes, there is (very little) extra pay for weekend work. I don't understand your point. Am I supposed to be okay with missing a day of work, because too many people are working and getting huge bonuses? IMO, that IS overstaffing -- somantics, I suppose. Truly, I'm wanting to be okay with it, but my finances can't. I do think there's a way to manage the work itself so that I'm assured of at least the minimum, and everyone else can get their bonuses too. That would make everyone happy, it seems.

I only have trouble on Sundays - sm
But, I've never gotten yelled at for not making my quota. Did you explain that there is no work?

Yes, Sundays are good days for me too...sm
Just wait until you work on busy days during the week, especially if you work second shift, which for some reason seems to be when they like to dictate long reports such as MRI.
