Interesting chain of events...I was told I would be paid xx for my current job. That didn't happen. I assumed it was the usual fuckery; they also said health coverage at 30. It was 90. In a weak moment I answered another manager's question as to why...

Lost my main job today with no warning. Retail has been very bad for me. 30 years of it. Always been brutal, always unpredictable. Seems I'm at the end of the line.

Just got off the phone with an ASM from work. The one who refused to switch a shift with me so I could attend my godson's first birthday... He's sick, called out yesterday - which is a HUGE no no at this time of year. Asked me to switch Saturday and ...

People man. I'm back to working the register and all the things people do are driving me nuts. Someone comes to the register with fruit, I pick up the bag, looking for the plu. Invariably most of them begin shouting "it's an orange, pepper etc"...

Working in a major retailer in a major city and tourist area is emotionally draining for me. Every day it's non-stop dealing with people who don't speak the language, abusive locals, and outrageous amounts of theft. A week ago a customer complained ...

I'm a scan price clerk and ad day is Thursday so I go in at 4am . I am always over hours near end of week so since the ad has to be up by 7, there is no real need to be there all day so I typically leave at 10am It never fails that if I shop, I will...

I've been away from the site for months, so Christmastime seemed perfect for coming back. When I ran an atheist group I'd always promote solstice stuff, saying how we heretics still enjoyed feasting and shopping. But privately, I always waited for ...

I work for a major retailer and theft is high in my store. One thing they have us do now is check customers receipts as they leave the store. Today a customer who had a problem with this spat at me. He was out the door before I could notify ...

Sixth day in a row at my FT job. My lower back and hip are on fire and trying to seize up on me. I log 12 miles plus per shift. Being punished for missing a night shift - I'm scheduled for EVERY one now. 4-1230am I'd better find some reasons to laugh...
