Getting Tired of My Jobs BS

I’m a server at a restaurant. Minimum wage + collective tips, part time hours because full time would mean we have to receive benefits. All summer we had no business and checks were $500 every two weeks.

I’m a server at a restaurant. Minimum wage + collective tips, part time hours because full time would mean we have to receive benefits. All summer we had no business and checks were $500 every two weeks. Every time someone quits my manager busts out a calculator to prove to us that they made a bad decision because they’ll be making less money “once we get busy again.” It’s finally happening, but I get bullied by other employees and then blamed for it by my bosses, expected to clean when it’s slow while everyone else stands around and talks, plans parties without me, etc. I go home crying because of the way I’m treated 3/5 days. I’m scheduled nonsensically, 12 hour days without being asked but still not enough hours in a week. I am the only one who gives my bosses my full attention and availability. Multiple times I’ve been sick and still had to come in for 10+ hours because there was no one available to cover my shift. My boss is currently on a two week paternity leave and did not prepare by hiring enough staff before he left. I’m hanging by a thread right now but quitting is so hard.
