i love you too jin, but where is my +1?...

A wise person once told a person i know a story, so i will butcher it now.
"My grandfather once said that the only thing he ever got for doing well at work, was more work." Its a simple phrase, but it speaks volumes. Look around one day, look at your list of responsibilities compaired to those around you. See how they meet those, or fail to. I excel at my job, its simply what i have a knack for. I go far beyond the call of duty almost every shift to achomplish more than my bosses even think possible. I've had them laugh when i tell them what i'll get done, then do. The sad part is, there is only 1 other person who does what i do, he covers my days off. He is the absolute worst at it. He can fuck it up more in 3 days than i can in a whole month, even if i tried. I am of course expected to clean that up on top of my normal work. Recently however i've had it. I switched my schedule from 4 days back to a normal 5 that im supposed to be working, but had given up to get more done. I've scaled back my work load differing back to people who used to do it, but who became lazy and i somehow ended up taking on there job. Im slowing down and trying to save my self from work. The whole point is, dont go so far above and beyond that they begin to put you on a pedistal. It simply leads to doing more work for the same pay, with longer hours. Your boss doesnt really care as long as all the work for that day gets done, a few extra things are nice but shouldnt be the norm. Because once there the norm, there no longer "extra", and you get a new set of "extra" on top of it. As for this situation... Tell them you'll be a few hours late, but can make it in. That way it shows your willing to work with them in the situation, but that it is an inconvience. No need to tell them why its an inconveinance. |
Go to work... I'm sure if you had a family emergency he would gladly repay you back since you helped him out..

[quote="Sniped Ur Azz":fe2e4]While it may help you out in the future...but anyone who works in a place like a restaurant, Movie Theaters, Corner Store, Grocery Store...etc...KNOW that when you work at a place like that...ALL you are is a "workhorse" its stupidity...they take advantage of you BECAUSE they know you will always "come in" when a shift is dropped. I mean, they WILL abuse it. Once or twice is enough...go past 2 times..your screwed. I know its nice, its good work ethic, its very kind and unselfish...but, they WILL turn it on you...has happened to me SOOO much. Just giving fair warning. Do whatever you wish though..just my 2 cents.[/quote:fe2e4]and I thought I used the "..." too much.

hah, dont give your cell # to your job. but if i were in your situation, i would still say no. my time off is valuable, im not coming in just because someone else called in or is on vacation. i dont care if there was a fire or explosion at work, if im on my own time, i tell them to call someone else or to do the job themselves. you can get a shitty $5 an hour job anywhere else, what makes this one so special?

WOW...wait...damn dude, I WISH it would even be 7! That would be MUCH nicer. I dunno, I did hear some "talks" amongst the politicians (shown on CNN) that they were shooting to raise the min wage to 7 here in the states! ;) I dunno...doubt it but would be nice for those busting major ass. Quote:
WHEW I AM NOT ALONE! And about the ... its really a habit for me...I mean, I like it because it shows how much I can pause between my words so that I drag them out. Its really a form of punctuation for me. |
