Antiwork

So I was working for a sandwich delivery spot that had recently been sold to a new set of owners. They were nice enough but really had to appease corporate as they were franchisee's. We were a very busy store on a major campus. The ownership and management shift had caused a majority of the old crew to quit or be fired, classic cleaning house approach. I had been there just over a year and genuinely enjoyed the job. It was decent money and super easy, the worst part was finding places on campus to park and finding the customers on campus. Anyway due to the staff shortage the new owner/manager was begging people to cover shifts so I obliged, and tried to fill as many as I could. As we were adding me to the schedule he paused and said 'I think this puts you at 3 hours overtime,…

Bartender at a brand new bar. On day 4 I asked for my shift time for the next day, as she still hadn't gotten a schedule out. She said I opened. We had opened at 12pm days 1-4 so I walked in to tell the patron that asked that I would be in at noon. The owner, standing next to me, confirmed my arrival and said he would try to get there 30 minutes early to unlock and prep everything for me to get there at 11:45. We opened at 11. She informed me via text at 11:01. That morning I walk in, late, after texting her back letting her know I didn't get that information. I walk behind the bar, grab the cutting board to start the limes and clock in on my phone since she was using the POS system I normally clock in on. She saw me…

Like what… also she called me at 8am and left this message.

So I’ve been at my job for over 4 years now. Last year I was mooved into a sallary position and I got a nice boost in my yearly wage. All was good until just the other week my boss told us that we had to work mandatory 15 hour days to make up for work left behind by some of our hourly workers. When I asked why they couldn’t make up they’re own work, I was immediately shut down. I now reelize that it’s cuz we don’t get payed overtime! What bullshit. I walked out 2 hours ago and will never look back.
