I work at a gym open to the public 24/7 as one of the night crew workers. The work is relatively easy, but the working environment itself is absolutely dogwater.
My coworkers make discriminatory, sexual comments against the women who come and go from the gym. They flirt with them constantly, and it makes me very uncomfortable. They also let their friends use the gym even without a membership, leaving them as my liability once said coworkers shifts end. It's a danger to me if one of these guests get hurt and they end up being a non member- it could get me fired, since it's a liability legally.
My boss also treats me with a lot of disrespect. When I started this job, I told him I had PTSD, anxiety, and depression due to abuse I suffered in the past. Whenever I've had an attack of said PTSD and ask for time off, he gets very annoyed with me. Due to legal proceedings involving said abuse, I asked for three days off in June more than a month in advance of when I needed them. He knows what these days off involve and why I asked for them, but still scheduled me to work despite that. He has made me do extra work that the day workers/janitors should be doing but don't do, but my pay hasn't changed to reflect the constant extra work. He has promised me rewards for being the “best night worker he has”, but has never followed through on said rewards.
I make barely a dollar over minimum wage.
I'm at a loss for what to do. On one hand I like the work, but on the other I hate being in an environment where I put my all into my job but I'm ignored, never thanked for it, or flat out disrespected. I want to quit but I'm terrified of doing so. I don't know what to do, and at times I feel like I'm in the wrong for wanting to quit. Am I?
