I’m not 100% sure if I can even post this here but we’ll see. I work for a dining service at a college. A new company took over recently and things have gone completely to shit. Our staff is stretched extremely thin, people quitting or calling out everyday. I’m an opening supervisor and generally we have 2-3 other people besides myself to open the place. For the past few months, from callouts or people quitting, I have been opening and running the entire place for up to 5 hours by myself.
