I never thought I’d be posting here but this really just irked me to the core so I thought I’d share Let me preface this by saying I’m in construction and my job sites are usually (45-1hr 30) away from my house. I’m usually there before any of my coworkers most days because I work at 7 A.M and I leave around 5:15-5:30 to go to work and wait in my car until 7, I do this mainly to beat traffic and to gradually start my day. Yesterday however we were told to be there at 7:30 AM so I decided I’d leave my house at a time that would get me there around 7:20. I get there AT 7:30, grab my tools and go see my foreman. He tells me (insert supervisors name here) had just left at 7:25 and he has been waiting on me to show up…

Just a brief rant, as I've been job hunting the last couple of days. The last couple of years have really put me in a mindset of never wanting to have to work in an office (or store, or what have you) ever again. Anything I'm qualified for, I'm qualified to do remotely. So, naturally, I'm filtering my job search to show me only remote jobs. It seems like every third or fourth job posting indicates that it's remote, but then describes job duties that simply cannot be done remotely – for example, receiving shipments, picking and packing outgoing shipments, PHYSICALLY DELIVERING packages… How hard is it for these people to put up accurate job listings? If my duties will require my physical presence to complete, THEN IT ISNT FUCKING REMOTE THEN, IS IT?

Long story short- I’ve worked here for 9 months. In my role for about 4 now. I spent the entire time so far fixing mistakes from the last person, but my job is for 2 people- in one. Every day I get more and more behind because I can’t keep up, and anytime I mention this to him, he makes it about my lack of work ethic. I’m working overtime currently and not being paid. He also punishes me for that too. If I try to stay late after work or work on the weekend (unpaid I might add) he says that is a lack of my time management. But the last 3 people who did my job quit due to stress. At this point he no longer speaks to me, no longer asks about my day, we have no cordial conversations except when he’s belittling me. (He mocks me…

Our new regional manager is a huge sports nut and wanted to go big this year, we had a meeting a few weeks ago where he came in with a jersey on, face painted, and a big foam finger. He was fired up and screaming and said he wants to make national news for our super bowl displays. First we built a massive replica of the super bowl stadium out of cans of refried beans. It's right there as you walk into the store and looks stupid as fuck. Had a few of the younger stockboys help, they said it was like playing Minecraft. I didn't get to leave until 2 am. We also built a Dr. Pepper fanzone out of crates of soda. Basically a big sports castle. There are even flatscreen TVs in there. I happened to check it the next day and saw a homeless guy jacking…

What is that company going to do? Fire you?
