its hard to rant to anybody bc they just don’t understand at all. i’ve worked at the same place and same position since august 2021. i got bumped up to $14 an hour in october and was told i would get a raise whenever i graduated high school to work full time in the summer. i don’t like to toot my own but i feel like i’m a very hard worker and for $14 an hour, i excelled and worked hard. so, i graduated and she (store owner) is saying how i’m going to play a bigger role in this warehouse and how i’m going to get the raise and credit i deserve. after graduating on may 15, she never went to me. i asked my boss to talk to her, as im getting impatient because i gotta pay rent and $14 an hour won’t do it. so, she finally talks to me today and she goes off on me saying how i have a terrible attitude towards her and everyone else, i talk way too much about who makes what and how i don’t make enough and how it’s no one’s business (bullshit), i’m very lazy, and i can barely do my job, and that since i graduated, “it’s a great thing, but it doesn’t mean you automatically get a raise”. while not completely shitting on me, she blamed the economy and inflation (which is bullshit because she has upped the prices of products we sell by around $300 since november) for having to send me home earlier now and since “we don’t have any business” she can only go up to $16 an hour and it’s non-negotiable. i’m fucking fuming, and for my friend, who has been here since october of ‘21, to not get a raise has set me off the charts. there’s only 3 of us in this warehouse, as me and my friend comprise 2/3 workers. we’re both putting in our 2 weeks and gonna watch this company crumble. it’s gonna be awesome
