My Manger is gone for one day and the Temp is on a power trip.

My manager is on vacation so a temporary one from a different department has been assigned to “keep an eye on us”. Today alone she scheduled a meet for six. We had it finally at 11. Many of use pushed or skipped our breaks to not miss it. During this meeting she called out one of my coworkers for “Rolling her eyes”. Seriously this woman we have never met before called out, infront of the whole team, thus poor girl for maybe having a nonverbal aditude. She all stormed over to us and pick two employees to yell at about our numbers (we are rated on quality not production and half the team does work that isnt counted at all). She then ranted to multiple other managers about this before finally bringing it up to the lead and being corrected. She then sent a someone who isn't even supposed to…

Promoted to Store Manager and asked to do 20 extra hours per week of un-paid labour to keep my position

I've been promoted to store manager at a large retail store and my store has fallen a little bit because of poor upper management sending wrong stock deliveries to us and delivering over 50 cartons (about 1000 + units of clothing) per day with one other staff on the whole day to unpack and put out onto the shop floor and serve customers. It's impossible. ​ I was told if I wanted to keep my position I would have to do an extra 2 hours in the morning before I started my shift and 2 hours after, to get jobs done, equalling out at around 20 hours of extra un-paid labour per week ontop of a 38 hour working week. They refuse to hire more staff, and won't give anymore hours for my current staff. I've been in the position for about 3 months and have already doubled the store's…

Asked my boss for a 1 month vacation 1 month ago. He went to mexico with his other employee.

Ive been working there for 3 years i’ve always been on call i was always there to fill the gap when they were understaffed and recently i got my first paycheck from youtube and it turned out to be a lot more than what i expected when it comes to money. Being tired of regular job and my boss knowing i have another source of income i asked my boss if i could take a few months off to focus on other projects of mine. He answered “you only work 3 days a week i don’t understand why you’d need a vacation” he said he can only give me one month of unpaid vacation. I was aware of the unpaid thing since it’s a restaurant and most restaurant jobs are awful but anyways, i agreed to give him some time to find someone to replace me during my vacation. It…

Please tell me there’s another way

I’m 21 years old and doing an apprenticeship that I’ve come to realize has put me in a shit situation. The management is full of people who don’t understand how difficult this work is. I only make enough money to break even on my monthly expenses, which means I can’t save anything. My commute is 2 hours each way and costs $600-800 a month because I use public transportation. And I can’t get a car or move closer to work because I don’t make enough money for either of those options. I’m disabled and this job is making things worse, so I keep having to miss more and more time, which of course means management is pissed and I get less money. But when I look for other work, it seems like nothing is any better. Truthfully, it’s making me want to die so I don’t have to deal with…
