Worked as an assitant at a fast food company since January. Place was a nightmare. They made me close every night from 8pm to 4 am with just 1 line worker till he walked out and I had to do it alone for months with the promise of getting more workers. I'm a woman working alone and they made me post signs that I was all alone. Almost got robbed 5 times in 2 months.
Made me work 50 hours scheduled every week with no overtime pay. They said if its scheduled they aren't required to pay me overtime.
If they sent me to the bank or another store for product they made me clock out and did not pay milage no matter the distance.
Since I was alone it took me till 6 am most days to finish cleaning. They made me clock out at 4am cause apparently “the system cant count hours past 4am” so never got paid for any of that time for months.
They had 15 year olds working 12 to 15 hour shifts without breaks on weeknights.
Ontop of that theres a hole in the ceiling that has been there for 3 years and drips rain water into the food line. They just hide it the ceiling is full of mold.
So last night I just walked out. Put all the food in the walk in. Put the money in the safe. Cleaned absolutely nothing. Turned the lights off and walked out.
All this for $15 an hour.
I reported them to both the labor board and the health department.
I thought this all was normal till I found this sub. So thank you all for educating me and helping me see I could do so much better!
