In case anyone needs to hear this:

If your overtime is given to you in lieu, but you can't use your lieu leave - you're being exploited and overworked.

If your leave request is anything more than a formality - you're getting exploited.

If you don't have a union, and your boss tells you that you don't need a union. Get a union double fast.
