When maintenance teams face impossible workload demands

Our maintenance team got downsized and now we're covering twice the equipment with half the people and we're all burning out but management keeps acting like we should just be grateful to have jobs. We used to take pride in doing quality work but now we're just trying to keep things from completely breaking down and I can see it's eating at all of us.

What we've seen

Half the team is gone, the workload doubled, and you're all burning out while being told to be grateful.
