They expected me to show up and make pizza for rich people with automatic shutters instead of preparing my house for a Cat 4

I work two different shifts at the same job and it’s killing me

as it says on the goddamn can, I work Housekeeping at a hospital and on every other weekend, I work third shift. I work 2nd shift during my normal schedule. I get one day off inbetween the switch. and I get home at 7 AM on that one day I have off. and apparently I'm “granted” that day to fix my sleep schedule. I called off Tuesday due to thinking I had c*v*d as I work around it on a daily basis. I didn't, but I already had wednesday off so the one day I'm given to fix my sleep schedule became 3. it's not enough. i am so fucking tired and cannot sleep. It is 9 AM, i have work at 3 PM. I am going in to work with nowhere near enough sleep, and I can't exactly call off again. hate it here dude

Clocking out for 30 min meal break

Taken over by new company. We have previously worked 8.5 hours and got automatically deducted a 30 min lunch. If we fail to get a lunch, we can document that at time clock and be paid. All good. New company now says we have to clock out and back in for lunch. But they've taken away the time clocks and now we have to clock in/out on computer which is time-consuming, or on an app on our phone, which our WiFi/data in the basement where we work is spotty. Also we have to do multi-factor authentication almost every time we get into our new company's websites so have to repeatedly get out our phones to do that. But whatever. So now I carry my phone with me all the time even though they don't want us using them during work. So my question is twofold; seeing how inconvenient it is…

There is no secret to success

Yesterday an executive in the office came to me with a bunch of projects. He was rattling off what he needs me to do while I was busy working on other things. I listened quietly and took note as always. At the end, he said, by the way, I got something for you. He started digging in his pocket and rattling change and I thought, seriously? But then he pulled out a fortune cookie fortune. He said, I got this at the restaurant at lunch. It’s for you. It said “There is no secret to success except hard work”. It’s funny. No matter how hard I work, I will never attain “success” whatever that is. I can’t even afford lunch.

I’ve finally formulated my response to all those indeed offers.

Every job offer I've had from indeed has either low pay or no pay. So I responded to all of them that “my services start at $30/hr”. I haven't had any replies.

Manager refused to give us a lunch break

It’s my bosses husband so he can do whatever he wants. He literally walked over a mile yesterday middle of our lunch rush to get fucking cigarettes. I’m hungry and we are really slow so I ask to take my lunch break. He said “not right wait till later”. Well later never fucking came, all the cooks in the kitchen are starving. I text my mom and tell her the situation, she said she was actually right up the road and would bring us all food. My mom came in such clutch. All the cooks are randomly eating chick fil a and my boss comes around the corner yelling “um did y’all pay for that??” I showed her the chick fil a bag and said “yeah because I didn’t get a fucking lunch break”. Never seen my boss so butthurt, she was literally pissed. I offered her a sandwhich but…

if you ever get hurt on the job, get a lawyer.

Don't wait, do it the same day or the same week at the least. I slipped at work in March of 2021, I fell in front of a dozen people in a warehouse by an assembly belt. My arms fucked up, I've been through 10 months of physical therapy and 2 surgeries. Because the accident was not reported as a fall they are refusing to pay for the physical therapist and the surgeries I've had. They're going to get away with it, I'm on my first appeal for a jury court this Friday and my lawyer isn't confident. Please get a lawyer as soon as you fall, otherwise you will wind up like me. Permanent damage, stuck with crippling medical debt. We all deserve better than this.
