Random thought on the news: in NI there is a problem with people not having water, because the water-company employees are on a work-to-rule. It strikes me as very odd that the water-company is so short-staffed that it is reliant on the good-will (and overtime-working) of its employees to manage to provide even a basic service!

There are, sadly, many many companies that assume that people will work overtime in order to be able to deliver their service.

And many people dependent on overtime in order to live comfortably.
