A friend works overtime frequently and gets no compensation of any kind. Sometimes this includes working an entire day off without pay. This is a private company, not government.

In the Philippines corruption is the rule, not the exception. A person is so lucky just to have a paying job there that working without pay is just something you sometimes have to put up with to keep a job and sometimes get paid. this world can really suck, can't it now?
