Call around to find coverage
When did this become the go to for management? Last I checked that's not my job or my responsibility… I'm not going to, I'm not in a management position, and your underpaying me so… Looks like your gonna be short tonight! Does anyone else get these managers that think you'll do their job for them? For clarification, I work in food service and am in no condition to be around food.
So I work at an escape room that hired me to work. I showed up for some training a few min early on Thursday only to be locked outside for 10 min in 3°C weather because the Manager forgot her keys at home. Fine, shit happens and I wasn't too upset. The same manager forgot to let me know when I work next so I ask the Owner (who I interviewed with) what time he wants me to come in. He told me 3Pm the next day. So I show up ON TIME and he says that I should be expected to show up 15 min early to set up. There was zero mention of this during our text message. And he tells me I can't show up late on the 2nd day and that I am fired. Wow.
Victim of the housing market
I don’t know what the hell to do guys. I’m a father of 3. I work full time and have a good job. Currently we live with my dad, but here at the end of summer we need to move out. I made the mistake of looking at rental homes and apartments last night. For a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment, it takes about 40% of my income. Once I included utilities, well over 50%. I don’t know what to do. How the hell am I supposed to provide a home for my family in this current market? How are we supposed to make it? I’m so completely overwhelmed and disheartened. Is there any hope for my family financially? With our budget, it’s not even possible to be able to afford any of these places. I’m desperate for hope, but I honestly can’t find any.
