why do i work so hard for a company that doesn’t care about me? i’m always literally on my knees scrubbing the floors, cleaning trash bins, doing the work of three people. but i could stand around and do nothing and still get paid my same hourly wage. in the 1.5 years i’ve worked at my store, my SM has not praised me once. it’s always constructive criticism. and while that’s necessary, you gotta balance it with some positive comments. c’mon. i’m so burnt out.

it’s always “hey, i noticed you haven’t been rotating the frozen food.. you need to do that. hey, i know you’re busy but can you organize all this stuff for me? hey, i know we’re supposed to mop the floors in the morning and i opened today but we didn’t do them so can you do them tonight along with the million other things you have to get done? oh, and we didn’t make the cold brew either so please get that done.”

i literally show up to every shift and work incredibly hard for what? what am i getting out of this? i wish i had the balls to walk out without giving 2 weeks because i would. if they can fire me on the spot whenever they want, i think 2 weeks is a courtesy. i’m all about taking the high road but i don’t think my SM deserves the notice at this point
