First day at new job and wow.

Went to try out a job yesterday at a warehouse, simple shipping and receiving job. The manager was this twitchy 40 something year old foreign guy. I could barely understand him but I tried my hardest to be polite and just do whatever he told me. The work itself was not that hard and honestly I probably would have stayed if it was not for this dude. I should have known during the interview process because of all the red flags and weird things he did. One of them including walking into the interview and just slapping down an application and leaving the room for 20 minutes which I thought was kind of weird. When I asked what my day to day would look like he just told me the lunch break hour And seemed mad that I even asked what I’d be doing. During my first day he spent…

When I asked what my day to day would look like he just told me the lunch break hour And seemed mad that I even asked what I’d be doing.
During my first day he spent 10 minutes at one point telling me not to take any pens away from workstations and just generally making me nervous about my every move. I scanned something incorrectly at one point and instead of helping me he just walked over and berated me and kept asking me why I was scanning it repeatedly. Then he proceeded to go off on me because my mask was blow my nose because I was having trouble breathing due to all the sweat and physical labor in a on non air-conditioned warehouse in Miami Florida.
Just his general rudeness and inability to successfully communicate with anyone around him was amazing. I watched him go off on a couple other employees and decided right then and there I wasn’t gonna come back the next day. If there’s one thing I won’t do anymore it’s work for psychos like this. I spent too much of my 20s wasting time for assholes like him.
