This is precisely why you don't work 7 days a week. You obviously need to turn it into "I wanted this place to be a better place to work", but you shoot yourself in the foot by accepting work 7 days a week. You can never let an employer run over you like that and you're life and future life is worth much more. You can do all sorts of things, like file complaints with state/federal labor agencies, report them to the IRS for the "contract employee" loophole that they've used over the years, and so on. It's only when you really start to care and get involved do you see there are lots of avenues to pursue. The worse they could do is fire you and then you got a pretty cool story as to why you were fired, attempting to remove a dirtbag operator off the street.
