Hi everyone! So look im just seeking a bit of advice.
I work for vodafone which is a telco company in Australia. Ive been working in telco for 3 years since the day i left highschool and really really enjoyed it until now.
My boss owns a franchise and this month weve had probably the worst foot traffic ever. Its gotten to the point where we are loosing customers more than were making them. I know this isnt my issue being the employee but my boss is making it so.
To the point where he'll pull me aside to have a chat if i dont offer $65 a month plans to seniors who can barely afford their 30$ prepaid cards.
Im honestly sick and tired of my boss micromanaging me and telling me to do unethical selling just so he can make a profit.
He pays me $1 over minimum wage which in australia thats $21.33 p/h part time.
Heres where the problem is. I live out of home, im 20, and havent taken a cent off my parent since then. My mother is on the disability pension due to schizo-affective disorder. Today i pulled the pin and told my boss ive had enough of him telling me to do unethical things. I told him im leaving in 4 weeks.
Im a uni student who pays all my own rent, bills and utilities… what if i dont find a job by then? Ive honestly shot myself in the foot.
My question is what do i do if i dont find a job? Where does that leave me? I dont want to be homeless or have to move back home and be my mothers carer again – i cant put myself through that mental stress.
Any help or advice is really really appreciated.
