kraft heinz burning itself.
So kraft heinz in Ontario is phenomenal in its stupidity. First let's try operation Phoenix. Where we fire everyone off and run the plant as a skeleton crew. Great way to save money. Except now the people have to work extra shifts to cover missing people. Then covid. After firing everyone off the plague hits so we need everyone back. But its been 6 months and all the people that got fired have better jobs that treat them like people. So we keep overworking and burning people out. Let's offer retention bonuses to try to bring people in, not anything to keep the people. That didn't work so now let's fire off unhappy people and bring in Temps to do there work. For 33 an hour. Nearly double what most the full time employees are making. There is a union but it's about as corrupt as heinz.
I've worked their for just about 7 months. I have wanted to quit since just about the moment I started, but always thought i'd give it a shot. I work at a slightly “upper-class” convenience store, without trying to blow their trumpet. I've recently turned 18, and I thought it was there policy not to have part-time workers, who didn't want a career in that field. So I was super exited to stop working there, and fine something else. That was until the night before one of my shifts, where my dad somehow convinced me to ask for another role instead of finding something else. I did, and got a job working behind the kiosk. I hate it. I hate the pressure that comes with handling money. I hate working there. I couldn't sleep well the week before my shift, even though I know that I'm not a brain…
They made me close as a punishment
I’m honestly not sure if this belongs here, but this literally just happened and I need to put it somewhere. I work at a sub shop for the fast food minimum wage in my state. The place is a shit show to be honest, and I always feel like I’m killing myself; picking up extra shifts, going in early and staying late for my scheduled shifts, functioning as if I’m 3 different people when I’m there, etc. I’m currently looking for another job because I honestly can’t deal with it anymore. The only thing that’s worth it is the fact that it generates some sort of income, even though it’s small. I went into work early today because they asked me to and I wasn’t doing anything so fuck it. It was ridiculously busy when I clocked in, so I just washed my hands and jumped right onto the line.…
Fuck Dominos
So I work at domino's as a delivery driver. I get minimum wage (11 in my area), which is pretty ass. I get tips on top of it but it is very hit or miss of course. I'm mad because I saw an ad today from Dominos pushing carryout orders by paying the customers $3 towards their next order. Saying something along the lines of “be your own delivery driver, cause drivers deserve to be tipped” or some bullshit like that. Dominos doesn't give us anything on deliveries, except a small amount for milage. Which currently isn't adjusted to these gas prices. I enjoy working there but when they blatantly show us they don't care for the people running the stores, I want to leave.
