I say my boss’s boss because that’s how he introduced himself the first time I met him. He stated his position before he told us his name.
I have been an outstanding employee for 5 years now. I’ve finished safety projects, supervised 2 crews, work 13 hour shifts while everybody else works 12s. I broke a record, broke that record, and then broke my own record a third time for how many trucks loaded in one shift. I have trained 27 employees on how to operate the forklifts. I have been sent out of state to learn computer shit that I had to then teach 80+ people. I constantly have good reviews and am asked why I don’t become a supervisor full time. It’s because of my boss’s boss.
He wrote me up for not wearing a hard hat and put me on a 2 day suspension.
It’s company policy, it’s in the handbook, but literally nobody wears PPE here. More than half the staff doesn’t even have a hard hat. Hell, more than half the staff spends their shift asleep or watching movies because there’s “nothing to do.” I get it, “there’s always something to clean or work on.” I’ve had my days but because I’m on adderall I struggle sitting still. I need to work on something or I get antsy.
Boss’s boss ignores everyone else and constantly harasses me. He’s pointed me out in a group of people and asked me why I’m not wearing my PPE before. I said nobody does there’s no point. He gives me extra tasks knowing that I’ll do them and ignores the people sleeping. He put up an employee suggestion box and accountability board that I filled up then threw them both out once he realized I was the one with the ideas. He called me into his office twice when I emailed HR, so I don’t trust them.
I’m going to do the bare minimum from now on. I can’t leave this job because of money and benefits. Advice please?
