[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not trying to be snarky OP, but you were out of line to call your boss a fat a%#. Especially in a professional setting. I can understand why you would be angry but name-calling is taking things a little too far in my opinion. Plus like another person stated ->> you will need professional job references in the future so best to not burn any bridges, especially w/name calling. Just some food for thought (No pun intended Btw.)[/quote] When people mess with your income people get nasty. The manager promised an income I.e. a certain amount of hours and then she didn't deliver on that and became nasty when I asked for it. That was personal. I was professional when I asked about my hours and I gave them 6 weeks to figure it out. I'm not going to be loyal to a job that doesn't value me and lies about what they are offering. I have had an internship at a non-profit for two years now so I do have that reference. I do agree that maybe I went overboard but managers in the service industry can be nasty too and they usually have no consequences for their actions. [/quote] OP, no manager is going to want to help you because you’re not a good investment for them. You have the maturity of a 14 year old. Even if you work hard, you can’t be put in a position with more responsibility because you won’t be able to conduct yourself professionally. [/quote] To clarify, the correct response to not getting the hours you want is to smile, work hard, and find another job. Everyone has bad managers and bad situations. But what you did accomplished nothing for you. Zero. You don’t have any job and getting the next one will be harder. What you did was not strategic at all. You’re not thinking in terms of your own advancement, you’re just lashing out like a child, like some magical Job Judge will come down and declare that you were right. There’s no Job Judge. You’ve only f$&ed yourself here. [/quote] No. I will be fine. They also clocked me out for breaks I didn't take which is illegal and I am considering reporting them for that. I sent a message to HR about not getting paid for hours I worked. Getting another service job won't be harder. I'm not thinking about my own advancement in the service industry? Not too many people want to advance because the environment sucks. [/quote] Okay well then sure, go nuts. You can bounce from crappy service job to crappy service job for ever, or at least until the labor market shifts and they have enough applicants to call your references. [/quote] Or maybe until they finish college. There are enough service jobs available that they don't need to accept this level of abuse. [/quote] There’s a strategic way to not accept it (find another job and maybe report the wage theft) and a stupid way to not accept it (make a childish scene). [/quote]
