i hate my job

[Edge]

as i said in some other post i would be working at cedar point. after today which was my first day i aint in the mood to do this job

i got up and went in my start time was 9:30 i didn't know when i was going to get off but i figured 8 hr shift instead i learned i was working 24 hrs this weekend if we did not close early. which i have made plans based on the 8 hr thing and my ride would have to up and leave when i said. which is not fair and the boss is 2 yrs younger then me! and i did not work with the staff i am suppose to work with at this place. and i looked and see they make you into a machine. to do as they say and tell you. which i refuse to bow down and do i did not relize it when i took this job. they blind you with 6.25 an hr plus bonus. not telling you you will have no life you will make relations with people who you will only known for one summer. and everyone has no personality they take it all away. i am weighinh quiting i know someone who said he could get me a job and as do others but i aint sure if i wanna do that. i don't wanna go back tommorow cause the next day i have school and i'll be burned out beyond reason only to do it the next weekend. if any one has advice please let me know

What is Cedar Point?

[Edge]

this place which had the tallest and fastest coaster in the world and then got beat and then went and made a newer and better one this year cause they had the title "fastest coaster ever" on 700 t-shirts with no logo.

in other words it's a big fing amusment park

[That Matt Guy]

I have never heard of it before, it must not be a national thing.

Eesh, that sounds worse than my job. At least I know my hours and get better pay. Unfortunately, I work for and with a bunch of idiots. Lots of personality, not a brain between the lot, I swear.

Hell, if you really ain't happy, no, not happy's not the term I'd use. If you can't STAND this job, quit, it ain't worth your mental and physical health. Especially if you can get another job. However, if a new job isn't set in stone, you might want to hold on until it is, painful as that may be.

[Tokka-B]

Such is life.

Kali: But on the other hand, it doesn't look good for you if you put down as one of your previous jobs as working less than a month...heh

If if makes you feel any better, Edge, nothing can be worse than my job (working in fast food)...

[Tokka-B]

If these big ultra-rich bosses will stop laying off all their employees then the jobs would spring back again...that won't happen until taxes raise...

True, but you could always state working conditions being unfair and unacceptable as a reason for leaving. See, this is where the art of truth twisting really gets a good workout... :lol:

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

I think you sould do one of the following...
Either...
1. Get a union together and Strike
...or...
2. Send a resignation and enclose a XEROX of your butt.

Anyway, I'd do "1" ,and if it didn't work, I'd do "2". :)

[Cascadia]

I actually like my job even it can be a pain. I work about 20-25 hours a week along with my 20 credits of classes at the university. My job is on the campus grounds. I get breaks to do some homework. My job requires numerous responsibilities. The campus bookstore sometimes do not know where to put me. Sometimes I am in general books or textbooks, or general merchandise or at the cashier's desk. I get paid $7.25/hr with no bonuses. In the past two days, I have worked 16 hours. What is the pain with my job is dealing with some of the customers. They would ask, "Where do sell stamps"? I tell them downstairs at the business center. They look around like a wandering deer then leave. The next day, the same person would come in and ask for stamps. But I was off doing something else and started to burst out laughing.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Just remember, a resignation just doesn't count without a butt-xerox!

[Kid Icarus]

at least you have one :cry: . *goes back to thinking about possibly considering finding out if some places are hireing*

[Edge]

well after some thought (i actually thought about it) i decied to say screw it and not show up today if they fire me (which they will) **** em i'll go back to mcdonalds or find something else. there at least i know that i have people to talk to and have some fun. my parents aint thrilled with it but then agian they always aren't happy with my decisons they think the mcdona;ds and such market is the same when they worked there. but times do change so i won't be unemployed for long i think thanks for the suggestions considering i was thinking about going in and acting like a total nut job there were some good suggestions

[Tinselcat]

i'm a clerk at a sort of snotty version of a souvenir shop that sells some taxidermy stuff, so sometimes i get evil looks and distainful comments from customers. i tell them the truth: most of the animals we have died of natural causes, were found by someone, and stuffed. the others are all legal and un-endangered. i have to deal with some of the snobbiest, rude people who come in to shop, and my boss is permanently on the verge of a mental breakdown. every day i come in she has another crisis to deal with. anyway, that's where i'm spending most of my summer. i may even have to get a second job, just so i can get up to working 40 hours a week. lovely, huh?

[Caster_Troy]

quit... i did it and it feels good... who needs money? live on love or something.

Hey Edge, sorry to hear the job sucked that badly. I'd heard bad things about Cedar Point before. Good luck finding a better one.

As for sucky jobs...I only have 4 more days (including today) at my lousy retail job. How lousy you wonder? Yesterday I was informed by a co-worker that we didn't have one of our large aisle displays any more. Why? Because one of our customers had peed on it.

We have quality customers there.

Oh yeah.

:dead:

[Tokka-B]

Damn those teenagers and early 20's kids... :x :evil:

They peed on it? LMAO! That's great!

[Tokka-B]

Explain how that is "great".

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

It's great 'cause it's funny.
It's also funny to send your boss a butt-xerox!!

[Tinselcat]

i think having a crappy job is like a rite of passage. it toughens you up and it's also the means through which you learn all sorts of fun things like creative new things you'd like to say to your boss, and lists of things you'd like to do to customers. it's like inspiration for the hostile imagination...

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

So, imagine yourself sitting on a xerox machine ready to let a picture say a thousand words to your boss...

[The Defibrillator]

I'm working at a Baskin Robbins (31 Flavors) right now, and I like it fine. Ya build lower arm muscle :wink: and when ya work the mornin shift all ya hafta do is restock for 1/2 an hr, and then sit around for the rest of the time. That's how it is right now anyways. in the summer that will change quite dramatically.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

It's great that you enjoy your job, Hobbit, but Edge isn't enjoying his. A simple resignation with a butt-xerox attached could solve everything! :wink:

either that or a kick in the nads!

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

Great Idea!!

[Skeletoncrew]

I think its rather sick personally, but I have a thing about not liking other people's bodily fluids.

This is the first time I've heard of a display getting urinated on. I do know that at various times over the years people have pooped on the floor in stationary, infants, electronics, and a couple other departments. Oh, and today I almost walked through a small child's vomit. :sick:

Three more days...

[Reznorite420]

SC: Were you the one that works/worked at WalMart?

[Skeletoncrew]

SC: Were you the one that works/worked at WalMart?

Yes, for two more days.

I'll be doing some shopping tomorrow to take advantage of my employee discount while I've still got it...but after I'm out of there I'm gonna do my best to never give them another penny of my money.

[Tinselcat]

good luck SC!
