I used to work at a bookshop for the last 45 days, I Started working 9-12 hours a day, the job was customer service behind the counter and anything else if i don’t have work to do,i got paid per day, The manager who is the son of the bookshop owner told me to leave for 2 hours when we are not busy, when i asked him why, he told me that you’re not getting paid enough to buy a meal every day(and thats true) because i was getting paid 1 dollar per hour, if I worked 10 hours, one time, i came across the owner when i was leaving to eat at home, and he told me that I should stop coming to work for at least 20 days because they were not having enough customers due to bad weather, while i was left alone dealing with 10 customers with no one to help me, i told him i can’t, i need to keep working, he didn’t say anything and i left, i was depressed, we didn’t talk about my pay only after 16 days of working for him, i worked after that 2 days for free, because i knew he was trying to get rid of me at any price, he did not like it when i asked to get paid, he thought that i was training, but i found it difficult to work for free, I talked to hime, he agreed to pay me 7 dollars per day, the problem is there was only me and another employee at the morning shift, the other guy traveled, and i had to deal with the thing alone, while getting paid 7 dollars!
When i insisted for getting paid just like other, he FIRED ME, when i called the manager(his son) he said don’t worry, at the moment i got fired, i started looking for a job, i called the manager at night, he said that you’re under qualified and you immediately started looking for a job using the experience you earned while working for us,i couldn’t do anything, as i am a foreigner (“refugee”)in his country, and its illegal for people from my nationality to work here,i hate my life.
