Quality Foods Corperate Requires days off to be split.

All in all for minimum wage my store is not to bad, managers are pretty easy going, and I can work at a slower pace then most grocery stores but why their official practice is to split days off I cannot understand. My co-worker said jokingly that it's so you don't get to comfortable, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this is exactly why they get split. I live in Canada but this kind of shit seems to be standard in minimum wage positions. I'll make sure to shit extra long now that I know about this policy. I have IBS so they can't do shit about it.

Have you ever quit without any other job lined up?

It's not like my job is challenging and I am overwhelmed, No, I just can't work for others anymore. I've been struggling with my depression and anxiety for last two years and the job has taken a huge toll on my mental state. Its not interesting,most people are toxic and I hate to wake up every morning, even though without this job I get destroyed financialy, sometimes I feel like I'm ready to quit even without any other lined up. I'm not sure if I want to work even for another company. I'm lost. Every tiny piece of advice would be a huge help.

Recruiters. Tell them the wages, pay, compensation.

I'm going to encourage applicants to stop the abuse Every single applicant needs to ask, “How does your view applicants? Do they understand why people work? What makes your company stand out in wages, benefits and culture?” Quit acting like assholes

job rant

I'm 20f, and i hate my job. I started working at O'Reilly last Tuesday. I don't know the most about cars and car parts, but i know your basics. The system is crappy, and i'm struggling to learn the floor plan of the store. Between the behind the counter, the actual floor and the “warehouse” in the back, there is SO much going on. I have already cried, on my second day. i've been left alone during a “rush” and was completely lost. I've been mocked by old men, treated like an object because i'm a decent looking woman working at an auto parts store. I need the money though, and have already scheduled two interviews for places i belong (a boutique and a pet store.) I was told this job was “easy” by everyone i talked to, but this is not easy for me. I was actually just messaged…
