No seriously. I’m pissed. My manager verbally told me he was giving me a raise, and a comp bonus every month. I’ve asked him twice since where that raise is. And he literally replied with “Oh, I never said you were getting one what do you mean?” when he literally f*cking told me this UNDER A SECURITY CAMERA THAT DOES AUDIO AND VIDEO….
Like I get it. This would have only raised my monthly income by what, $500-700? Not something to be too salty over. But like for fucks sake. I’m 21. I WAS A MANAGER AT A CELL SHOP BEFORE THIS. MAKING A LOT MORE THAN WHAT I WAS PROMISED TO BE MAKING HERE! I was supposed to be making $22.5/hr here. And commissions. And I’m literally making fucking $16.50/hr. Nothing more. I was also supposed to get benefits. The only one I get? OT. And that’s because it’s illegal to not pay out OT in my state. I work 50+ hrs a week. One day off IF IM LUCKY every week, and have spent $300+ in the past MONTH cancelling emergency dr’s and dental appointments AND FEMALE HEALTH APPOINTMENTS I DESPERATELY NEED, to cover for people calling out left and right in fear of losing my job if I say no. And for what?
The fact he is blatantly lying about this pisses me off. They’ll be real pissed to find out I’m leaving them soon..
Employers. If you’re going to give your fucking employees a raise, HONOR. YOUR. WORD. People are literally struggling to pay rent. To fucking feed themselves even. Shit like this, is pathetic.
