I started working this job a week ago, it was red flags from the beginning— hired on the spot, promised to be cross trained in something that would bump my pay immediately (only for that to be mentioned literally never again..) selling credit cards, protection programs, most other cashiers were teenagers.
thrown in practically 0 training, awful environment. my manager literally gave me a name other than my actual name because she “just couldn’t call me (my THREE letter name lol)”
i tried to stick it out despite having really bad mental & physical side effects of stress. (posted about these things a lot if you’re curious) and it’s a week. i fucked up and clocked out early today on accident due to nobody sending me my schedule and me falsely believing i was off a little earlier than i actually was. nobody caught it but when i realized when i got home wait actually… i think i’m here too early… i fully panicked and realized that this is all so unhealthy, it’s been a week i’m not dealing any better. i should just quit.
hard part.. my company uses a website to run background checks (WorkDay) and so if i quit without 2 weeks notice i could be flagged as nonrehirable and hurt my chances to get a job with MANY other places due to it.
i barely made it the one week, i feel the job was misrepresented to me tbh, i feel i’m being discriminated against (name thing— i am trans) but i also don’t want to fuck myself over for the rest of my adulthood because i didn’t just listen to my gut & not even accept this job. would you stick it out the two weeks and risk even poorer treatment from management?
thank y’all for the help & thoughts.
