Month: April 2023

Holy shit, I just got off of work and it was the most infuriating shift I've had since I started there. To set the scene, I work at a restaurant in a historical area of town, so we get very busy. Today was 55⁰F and windy. I'm talking gusts of up to 70 MPH. So, I go in, and I'm already in a worse mood than normal because of a coffee incident. I see that we no longer have our mats in the front. Okay, no big deal, the assistant gm must've put it away, it's not supposed to be raining today anyways. But there's leaves everywhere. So, I clock in, and start sweeping. I knew today would mostly be sweeping, so I didn't mind. But, because of the wind, every single god damn time someone opened the door, or it blew strong enough to open it, the wind would…

One of the supervisors at work sent a mass email to all the clerks. She basically forwarded her own email that informed the workforce management team that another employee “no longer should be scheduled & worked her last day on Friday. ” Now this supe is kind of a jerk all the time. She's nitpicking, never mentions anything positive and everything she says in emails sounds like a threat in my opinion. I don't know the employee who left because I'm wfh/ remote in another state. But I think it was so unprofessional and definitely on purpose, who forwards their own email to everyone? Am I wrong?

I had surgery yesterday, got my wisdom teeth removed. When I asked her about it then she had led me to believe she most likely could, I explained that I'd be healing and at least need a day off. So yesterday before surgery I realized the day still hadn't been removed, through the Me@Walmart app I put in an unpaid leave request in hopes to remind her. After I got home from surgery before I could even rest I had someone bring me to the store and gave her my dr excuse. She just gave me the Sedgwick (for those who don't know they deal with Walmart leave of absences) number and I'm still working on getting it approved and all. I called in this morning as Sedgwick told me to follow through with regular call in procedure, but I got a notification earlier that my store manager got online…

Are we at all surprised? bullshit work for no real purpose except to make someone else rich.

My assistant manager stole tips this morning to make up a little lost cash this morning. She was not on shift, and came off the clock to do so. None of the tips were hers and the manager tried to cover it up. What can I do?

Just the best isn’t it? I sent rent a day early, and I get a thanks, and I’m casually told that their on vacation until next week (after going on vacation 2 weeks ago). Great way to recirculate the money into this abysmal economy, ain’t it? (And don’t worry, I’m looking for something cheaper that still has what I need. I just don’t understand the tone deafness of some of these new school, inexperienced landlords. My fault for being poor and not owning property I guess [end sarcasm]). Btw, the “I NeEd tO TrAvEl EvErYdAy!” brigade is gonna get a rude awakening in a couple of months, and I have no sympathy for such ridiculous gluttony.
