It’s hard to find a better job, or else I’m sure we’d all do it So tired of all the high expectations of a multi million dollar nationwide company, and all of the constant micromanaging, for peanuts
I know I’m preaching to the choir, but I need some emotional support in this fucking hellscape. I’m scared and exhausted. Mid-March, a client ghosted my co-op partner, leaving $2k+ unpaid to us. This client was and still is entirely unreachable. April 10th, my husband calls me, sobbing. HR took him into a meeting and told him they were terminating him because of a clerical error he made on order a few weeks prior.

The title was a rule from when I was a valet about 10 years ago. Time was tracked per tenths of an hour, so if your shift started at 9am, you were expected to be clocked in within one tenth of an hour (6 minutes) before that, at 8:54. But, you weren't allowed to be in the dispatch office before you clocked in – all prep work, uniforms, etc. had to be done outside that time frame AND physically outside the office. Extrapolate that out further – we had to park off-site. There was a neighborhood we could park in, but the residents always vandalized our cars. They offered free busing from a lot a mile up the road…but the bus left the lot at 20 after the hour and arrived at our main building at 40 after the hour. To start our shift at 9am, we had to be…
