came to my senses and quit my degrading job

ill try to keep this short. so ive been working at chuck e cheese’s for about a year now, and when i got hired, i expected to be working a gameroom position. halfway into my job, i got put up at the door (to keep track of families going in by giving them a uv stamp and checking their stamp when they go out) more and more, to the pot where i rarely, if ever, actually did the job i applied for in gameroom. so today, at the time of the original posting, was about the busiest day of the week. there a shit ton of families, around 120 families in our store. a shitty manager, who had past issues of giving unwarranted write ups to a handful of people, came up to me and essentially told me off on how the security guard was helping me check people in…

(i never told anyone to do anything, and he helped me of his own free will, but w/e) layer on, when things continue to ramp up, and groups of 20 want to come in and out at the same time, i got a “lovely” prank phone call about how someone wanted a job as a night shift security guard (wow, really fucking original joke) that dragged on for about 10 mins WHILE im having a panic attack DURING a huge rush of ppl in and out. i got a final phone call at the end of my shift, hung them up clocked out, took a box outside and whacked the shit out of it while crying, and promptly asked my shit manager for a resignation sheet. she then argued with me about “oh, we wouldve helped you if you just asked” like theres no one running around in the back like a chicken with its head cut off. i already made up my mind, and there was nothing she could say to change it.

ive got a few jobs lined out, a couple of them with applications. hopefully ill be able to spot the places that treat their employees like shit now.
