People can be pissed off about whatever they want to be pissed off about. That doesn't mean you're inherently justified in being pissed off.

It's anecdotal because it can't be verified. That it really, really happened to you is irrelevant to what kind of evidence it is. You're a disgruntled employee because you're a disgruntled employee.
AFAIK The only jobs that you ARE NOT permitted to be on-(duty) shift is regulated by the DOT. 12 hour shift with 8 hours OFF (sleeping?) is the rules for Truckers . (We see in the papers and TV when some of them cheat on their log)

I have had 28 hour shifts. My wallet got fat, I was just too beat to spend it
You refuse, and there is always someone else willing to work in your place...permanently.
