I live in California and work at this Cafe place inside a hotel. Doesn't pay that much, strictly 5-6 hours and coworkers are greedy over 25-30 dollars in tips. It seems they had so many other employees before me. Anyways the supervisor and my coworker are close and I feel there is a strong bias. She told me she wasn't pleased how she didn't make as much money as before with adding one more person. She acts all friendly but still. The supervisor acts all dumb, like he obviously doesn't trust me and will call me even if I am 10 mins late but won't have an issue if the other employee won't show up or she is on her phone, etc. Yesterday the other employee didn't come and today the supervisor complained to me that I didn't finish x task yesterday and the floor had some coffee stains because…

Any fed ex employees who have had something similar? Any employees anywhere who have gotten away with something like this? I know I am supposed to report to financial assistance that I am getting tuition reimbursement, but honestly what is the point of that?

I'm on a leave because my dad passed away. One thing that was really driving me nuts was the in office birthdays and whatnot. I have signed so many cards for people I don't know and then been forced to sing Happy Birthday and then decorate their desk with the same decorations we usee for every desk and as soon as they see the desk decorated they take it down. Work is work. We aren't friends. No one said shit to me about my dad passing. So I don't know why I'm made to care about people personally all the time.
