Month: October 2022

I’m a new catering manager for a small company, and my event coordinator gets angry at me so easily. I’m not telling my team to work enough, I’m not moving fast enough, etc. I really think she just doesn’t have faith in my abilities and gets angry when things aren’t done her way. She lets it go with most people except people she views as directly under her orders. She’s gotten angry with me for sending one of my team members home when we were overstaffed. It’s her expressions; her reactions and tone that reflects how angry she is with me, and me being a more calm person it’s very difficult to work along someone with a short fuse. She works directly under my manager, so in a way I do go to her to call the shots, but I’ve been here for five years and worked very hard and…

Title sounds like a karen but hear me out. My bf is a closer for mcdonalds. I worked with him for a few months so I know for a fact that he picks up the slack of others. This mcdonalds is fucking filthy. Mold and standing water by the tea containers. Old grease. Slimy frappe machine. Its bad but people that report get fired because some managers let people take home food at night and some don't so everyone can be acused of stealing. Here lately they've been hiring alot of teenagers and people with health issues that call in often. The managers pick and choose who can call in as many times as they want and who can't. Today all the night closers all called in but him. This has happened multiple times withing the last month. He's also the truck guy and gets to do that alone as…

We should no longer refer to wealthy people, due to their “prosperity” from their business, as good businessmen or women (people). Instead, we should refer to them as ETHICAL BUSINESS PERSONS for those who have gained success while helping their employees live a prosperous life (livable wages, benefits, etc. ). In sharp relief to UNETHICAL BUSINESS PERSONS who have become grossly wealthy at their employees expense (e.g. Walmart, Amazon).

I’m going through metrics at my sales role in which our commissions are determined through points systems. Everything was pretty normal but then I asked how much revenue I brought in for the year and I got a laugh and the response was ‘don’t know, don’t have a way to look that up but we know how much you cost us’ We’re on the spectrum so we’re a little social stupid but help me out I feel like I’m missing something…

I've always held a good respect for service workers. Especially those in the fast paced food service industry since many of my family have made a living one time or another do it. I have a new found respect for them. I enjoy cooking and do pretty well with it. So when I was asked if I would cook on the weekends for a fall festival, I didn't hesitate. The money is good and it's cash. I have five items to cook. 2 of them pretty much cook themselves, I just watch them for a bit. The other 3, not so much. You can not think your way out of the weeds doing this, per se. All you can do is try to work your way out. And playing catch up is not a game I like. All I can tell you is I'm tired and have no clue how…

Can't edit the title after the fact. It should say Course completion. I thought you guys might like this. Recently moved to a small town. the job prospects are terrible. I landed a job a the manager at a tax preparation company. Instead of paid on the job training, I was signed up for a 6 hour class learning the basics of taxes and in addition would be required to attend a 6 hour class on Saturdays that starts at 7am. The course itself has homework and it takes about 2.5 hours to finish a single chapter. All of this is unpaid. The reward for this is: tax knowledge, part time hours during preseason, and full time hours during tax season at 17/hour as the manager. I was able to withdraw from the 6 hour class and do self study instead. Fuck that shit, it's unpaid. Only because I need…
