I have been more than happy to work for this company until recently. The manger doesn't show appreciation for the work I do, and the disrespect is weighing me down. He has me driving 2 -3 hours for each job site, so half of my check is spent on gas and food. Appreciation and respect would be enough

Review from Engineering Dept
The attitude of the manager. I leave at 7 or 8am everyday, and I get home after 9pm, 6 days a week. I get my jobs done, but the manager won't acknowledge how hard I work. I do atleast 5 jobs a day. I am degraded and cussed at. The older man shouldn't be paid to just drive around on company time.
