I love my job and have kept my mouth shut to management about certain issues that they are handling poorly for half a year now. In fact, these issues have little to do with me and more to do with the way other employees are treated. The few times that I brought this up (though others have done so more often), it simply gets shrugged away, usually with a sudden loss in scheduled hours. It has been brought up to human resources and nothing changes. Well, after my general manager completely humiliated an associate and our meeting for very little reason in front of the entire crew, I'm fed up. Currently job hunting, but I have a meeting with her boss (the District Manager) tomorrow. I am currently writing a letter to corporate about it. I've gotten the number to HR and even the Operating Manager (who owns this franchise) and expect all of them to hear me out. Regardless, I don't expect to stay at this company long and I hate it. I really love my job, despite the crappy pay (seriously, one of the new places that I'm applying to offered me a starting pay at 50 cents more what I'm making now after my promotion with another 50 cents after three months, if hired, and actually asked if I was okay "only" making "that much." Either way, if I don't stay here at my current job, I'm going to miss it. It's the kind of job that I've thought about staying at and working my way up if I haven't already spent 25 grand on school studying something completely different, you know? Oh well. Sorry, for the rant, KHV. Just sad ; ; tl;dr: I'm sad and I'm drinking and **** bad bosses.
Last month I lost my job because I quit. I was going to leave on the 28th, but they let me go on the 14th.
The company I work for is about 4.5 million dollars behind budget, and if we don't have budget by the end of the financial year, we'll probably have about 12 months left.
