I obviously will refuse to be a dick to my employees, and will fight and advocate for them at every turn, but I still can't help but feel like I've become the villian. I need this job for myself and my family. But why do I still feel like a scumbag…
Extra info: I work in car sales and the job I quit was 100% commission….I just had a child 1 month ago….I have a new job secured with a guaranteed income of my previous job plus any additional commissions….I know I made the right decision but why god why do I feel guilty for quitting my old job
I work in retail and was scheduled for five days in a row with only one day off before I am to go back in. I brought up how this seems like a bit much, and kindly asked if in the future, I could have two days off in a row after working five or more consecutive days. Everyone was genuinely baffled by this concept. None of my managers understood my reasoning. One of my coworkers also said I seemed spoiled. Is this really so strange? In my past retail job, people were given two consecutive days off, unless they requested otherwise. I thought this was just the norm.
I hate that nonsense when an employer says “we’re a family here.” Really? Did you change my diapers? Teach me to ride a bike? Hug me while I cried during my first heart break? Oh- no? Then we ain’t family- this is a job, I’ll give you my 8 hours for my paycheck then you can leave me the fuck alone.
