I lasted a month . I just started a new job in an industry I’ve been in for about 5 years now . It’s a brand new facility with owners have zero experience in this field . When I went for the interview it felt more like I was interviewing them . It well though and I left thinking this would be a nice opportunity.
Wishing my second I was asked to cover two callouts which I took up on the opportunity. Stuff happens , life happens , I get it . I’ve been a manager in this industry more than once I know how staffing can be . Fast forward to yesterday . One coworker texted me two hours before her shift asking for coverage . I couldn’t do it this time . Fast forward again about 8 hours later . Another coworker asking for coverage for today . Couldn’t do it . Fast forward two more hours I get an “hey are you up ? I need a favor ” Text at 10:45 PM (I actually wasn’t I just read it this morning around 6 ) . This is an individual I’ve already covered for .
Clearly there’s an issue within the workplace if this is already happening at a business that’s 3 months old . Even if it’s not an internal issue I’m not willing to have my phone blown up every hour I’m not there . Just the other day I clocked out and got a “Hey so and so called out is there anyway you can come back “
So unfortunately I’ve only lasted a month in an industry I’ve been in for 5 years .
