this might seem kind of petty but this is just one instance in a long series of horrible business practices Ive witnessed in the 4 months Ive worked here.
for context, im 5'2, lots of stuff in our kitchen is high up, normally I have a second person with me but sometimes when its slow im working alone. In most cases I dont need to reach the stuff thats up high, its just back up stock of stuff thats stored lower, or its very light boxes that I have methods of getting to when im alone.
however this time I needed to get the bags down, which is a pretty heavy box (im not sure how heavy cause im bad with that kind of stuff but i wanna say at least 10lbs) and in order to get to it i have to kneel on our line (unsanitary for one thing, and dangerous considering our line is on wheels) even still i have to reach above my head and be able to support this boxes weight as i lower it down without dropping it all over the food im trying to pack up
i ended up getting a girl from out front to help me, hold the step stool stead and try to prevent the line from wiggling around. we managed to get it down safely thankfully, but i decided to bring it up to my boss anyways just cause… i never want to be put in that sitation again. well as you can see, this was the response i got. after a long list of issues ill be looking for a new job tomorrow.
