With the recent explosion of anti WFH media I can understand the frustration from you all. Working from home sounds amazing but as an outsider looking in to the U.S. you're blue collar work force has insanely cruddy conditions in large areas, in jobs that are fundamental to building/sustaining your country might I remind you. Might I suggest helping rally to better their conditions first before being angry you have to go back to an Ac controlled basicly hazardless environment ?
As the title says, bossman had either a moment or was short sighted but, I have practically finished all my work with nearly 7 hours left on the clock. Before you ask, I work in a factory so no computer, only my phone to entertain myself
so there is a lady whose over a fleet of cars we deal with… this account business is really important to our sales… we have phones at the location and one other manager outside myself but this account manager has the locations phone number and everyone else on the front end… yet she seems to call my cell phone over and over even on my off days… this morning she text me saying (and im off ) “hey it seems impossible to get you via phone is that something we can work on i was under the impression you are my direct line of contact for our needs” but why not call the store which is always open if you dont get me? why not call the other managers? why call over and over again? and she asks the same thing over and over and doesnt even keep…
My coworker (she is the same position as me hair receptionist gets paid the same she’s 40 I’m 23) So she makes our schedule because it’s just two of us instead of our manager (she can’t manage anything for shit) Long story short Kellen was suppose to take Friday-Sunday off for a family trip but last minute changed it to Saturday-Monday knowing I can’t open the hair salon because I have school. So she’s fucking over all the stylists and my self. Should I even go in? I’ve talked to the manager about this but she’s so shit at her job she lets Kellen do whatever the fuck Kellen literally thinks she owns the shop LMFAO while she’s getting paid the same as me. I don’t want to fuck my co workers over today by not going in but it’s that bitches fault anyway so would I be wrong to…
I have been working for a telephone center for 8 months now, in the sales department. Today they announced us that the center will be closed for a week in August, because 15/8 is a big religious holiday for Orthodox Christians and nobody will be willing to have a serious conversation leading to a sale. So far so good, The problem is that they are making us use our personal earned vacation days (4, to be precise). Which creates a problem for me because I have made vacation plans a week prior that and my vacation days are not enough to do both. When I talked to my supervisor, she told me that this is something that all of us will be doing and that she can’t do anything about it. I explained that I have plans and nobody had informed me that in summer the center will be closed…
Full disclosure I live on on Lond Island, NY so cost of living is embarrassingly high. Their starting wage is $16.48 which is paltry. Target/While Foods/Harbor Freight in town start 16 year olds at $17. The ad I answered said hours would vary but to be available Monday-Thursday from 9-530 and Friday 9-1. I called to cancel my interview and reveied a rude message this morning that this is only a part time job and if I expect more I should look for full time work. You are quoting people to be available for what would be the bulk of full time work. Additionally this is an 18+ job in a warehouse freezer that they are seeking year round work for. Maybe you can get that from a college student in a pinch but in what Long Island 2023 world would you expect full time availability for a part time…
