I quit today and GODDDD it felt good

It’s my 8th week at the company and after my first shift, I already knew this wouldn’t last and started looking for other work. In that short amount of time I’ve been yelled at for working too long (they don’t like paying overtime, even 5 minutes) even if the office has fucked up the times on our job sheets, I’ve been trained differently by every single person I’ve worked with so am still asking questions about things I should know by now but don’t, I’ve been told that I’ll work during school hours (the ONLY appealing thing about the job) and I’m always late picking my kids up from school because they give me longer shifts than I was promised, they preach that they’re inclusive for hiring so many single parents but really the only reason these women don’t quit is because they need the money to feed their kids,…


It’s my 8th week at the company and after my first shift, I already knew this wouldn’t last and started looking for other work.

In that short amount of time I’ve been yelled at for working too long (they don’t like paying overtime, even 5 minutes) even if the office has fucked up the times on our job sheets, I’ve been trained differently by every single person I’ve worked with so am still asking questions about things I should know by now but don’t, I’ve been told that I’ll work during school hours (the ONLY appealing thing about the job) and I’m always late picking my kids up from school because they give me longer shifts than I was promised, they preach that they’re inclusive for hiring so many single parents but really the only reason these women don’t quit is because they need the money to feed their kids, i don’t get the hours we agreed on, my pay usually gets fucked up, the boss flat out refuses to listen to complaints or feedback, the other employees are racist, homophobic and ableist which is not my vibe at all, they bitch about each other so often that I started timing how quickly it would take for one of them to say something inappropriate every morning (record is 10 seconds lol) and I’m spoken to like shit almost daily.

I got to work this morning and my boss kicked off, saying that they’re “sick of my shit” and calling me useless for constantly having to ask if I’m doing things properly (again, they’re training me differently) so I said “yanno what, thank you for the opportunity to work for you, but I’m done” and I walked out. She had to cancel 7 jobs because I quit and she’s lost about $2.5k and it’s beautiful. Some of my finest work honestly. I wish I could’ve filmed her face so I can watch it on a loop forever. It was magnificent.

I hoped to find a new job before quitting but I refuse to work in such a toxic environment so I guess I’m funemployed for a while. It was soooo worth it though
