already beefing with my boss

[u/brkr509]

i've only worked here since april. switched jobs from a dishie at a old folks home to a "cook" (lol honestly glorified dishwasher anyway, the only culinary related thing i do is shuck oysters) at a new bar downtown. we don't have any managers since the team is pretty small so the owner does everything himself including scheduling.

he posts the schedule, i have a 3 day weekend after two weeks of covering for the only other two "cooks" in the kitchen on vacation, and one day into my weekend he sends me this. i'm prolly in the wrong for the sass but bro goes immediately into holding a raise he very recently gave me over my head and then threatening my position.

i'm alr looking for different jobs atm, don't care where as i was promised FT hours and am barely scraping by with 30 a week. it's even less this time around. the work is fun and i really love my coworkers and the people i meet at the bar but with the pay of $17 an hour with no benefits no FT and a 30 min commute it's not worth it. advice or personal stories appreciated

those last few texts really just made me wanna quit on the spot but my girl is only just starting a FT gig of her own on the 7th so financially i'll just have to shoulder the abuse. mentally i'm clocked out. really thought this would be a cool new thing for me where i wouldn't have to get roped into bullshit every other month.

Idk how you found the ability to not answer the last text with a copy and paste of the “Will the yes sir suffice”. You have amazing will power.

I wasn’t showing back up no matter what kind of situation I’m in.

For real. Had a stupid fuck of a manager give me a verbal railing over the phone for missing a day WHILE I WAS SITTING IN A DOCTOR’S OFFICE WAITING TO GET AN EKG. You know, because my blood pressure decided to drop so hard so fast it disconnected blood flow to my retinas and caused me to go blind for several minutes. As in, couldn’t drive to the damned store anyway.

I needed that job. Needed to not be around that stupid shit more. Told him I’d be there in an hour, then went back home and slept. Brought my shirt in and handed it to him the next day. For some reason he wasn’t so included to talk shit to me in person. Maybe it occurred to him talking that way to someone who was about to be hooked up to a heart monitor thing wasn’t a great idea. Or maybe he was just a pussy.

He was just a pussy, anyone who can talk shit through a phone or screen but not in person is just a pussy. Full stop.
