Tldr; I work for a security that only pays 15$hr here in Canada. I have a second job that pays more but got laid off for that job. I basically do 2 weeks at other job and 2 weeks with this security gig. I’m their best guard and I saved them many contracts chase other security guards are shit. I demand they pay me more at the very least 20$hr and he started getting offended how other companies don’t pay enough as well ect ect. Seriously thinking of quitting. I’m worth more than 15
I’m not anymore. After years and years of people constantly complaining about things like being charged $2 more a month on their premium, resorting to screaming at me at times. Years of people yelling at me for things completely out of my control, like an non-claimable loss. People resorting to using direct insults, cussing, berating…etc. when I am literally just the messenger. I’m a client service rep. Which means, unfortunately, I am the one people complain to. BUT that does lot mean I make the laws and rules on insurance. I am not the one in charge of statewide rate increases anymore than the cashier at the gas station is in charge of gas prices. It’s not okay to use me as your personal punching bag. It’s not okay to insult me and cuss at me. If you need to vent, then vent. I can even solve some problems if…
This is not an offensive thing to say. We will literally spend a vast majority of our waking lives toiling for billionaires. I see elderly people hobble around my workplace. Still breaking their geriatric backs and in constant pain. We have no free time, no energy after the full time week. My life consists of work and resting for my next week of work. For what? Forced servitude until we die to make some tycoon even more money? This system is so fucked up and insane. How are people fine living like this? It is not only depressing but everyone is paycheck to paycheck. Only sixty more years of toil to go.
“Do you have a servant’s heart?”
STOP QUITTING!
Make them fire you, they want you to get mad and quit when your getting bullied into working a shift you didn’t sign up for want to or finding someone to cover your shift in an emergency. Put it back on them. I’ve seen to many post recently with people just quitting. You declared your not available, don’t show up and get fired.
(Originally posted in r/MaliciousCompliance but I think it fits better here?) Sorry for my English. I am not native. I have been sharing my story in different subreddits but I think it is time to look back and laugh about this. Maybe this is part of the healing process? I don't know. So, anyway, I used to work in this place last year. At first, it was awesome and I liked it a lot. It was demanding, yes, but still manageable. My supervisor, a guy we will call Steve, was at first like a mentor to me. Yes, he was a douche sometimes since he liked to make “jokes” that could be offensive. I tried to ignore this and move on. During my first semester, I had good evaluations and Steve liked to show me off a lot as an excellent worker be helped to train. Things started to go…
Im not the one, ill rock your shit.
