I work at a hostel chain. it's a great job. i sit pretty at a desk, check in international hotties, online shop etc. but oh god the night shift. the night shifts are from 10pm to 8am. i have an endless supply of shit that's happened while I'm on shift; break ins, armed robberies, Jeff bezoz drunk on hand sanitizer in my bed. basically we're given the phone and can go to bed, anyone off the street can call for any rhyme or reason.
we do this for $50AUD a shift. hours just got reduced, so we're there from 8pm to 8am. and yes we don't get paid anymore.
we got another boss working now, so the shifts on reception before this used to be 5-7 hours. now they are just 2. I have to travel 40 minutes for a 14 hour shift and I don't even make $100 AUD. and if you're Australian, you know how little $100 gets you.
the next week I have 3 x 2 hour reception shifts and 3 night shifts. i feel like I'm degrading myself if I stick around. please, someone more eloquent than me teach me how to quit (this is my first real job), complain or suck it up.
