I am a liscenced teacher and starting August 16th I will be teaching at my first school. However, I still need money until then. So I decided to get a job with my local school district (different from the one I am teaching in).
So I got a job mowing lawns and weed whacking the grounds in my local district. We are supposed to work 4, 10 hour days. We start at 6am and I was told we would be done at 430. This makes sense if you include a 30 min lunch. We get one 15 min break.
Now in my brain that means that we should be able to clock out and be on my time by 430. So I was a little surprised when we started leaving the work site with the work trucks at 430. Meaning we don’t get back to the shop until 445. We then have to park the trailers, unload the mowers, clean them off, gas them up for tomorrow, and park them. I have not been back and clocked out before 5 a single day I have worked here.
Also my coworkers say inappropriate things on our break so I take break separately now. It sucks but I need to keep the job until my teaching job starts in a few weeks. I can tell you I will find a different summer job next year.
