Things Going on Here..

Hi there.. I have quit Burger King and most of you will yell at me for not having a job now but you know what I couldnt handle only working 7 fucking measly hours a week. I was promised 30 hours a week and then it went from that down to maybe 20 before I hurt my foot and then I went back and she was barely giving me 15 hours a week and this coming week I would have had 7 measly hours.. I went in and talk to her yesterday and she told me I wasnt trying hard enough.. So I told her if she felt that way about me I quit. I handed her my shirt and visor she had given me when I started. I also told her that if she felt I wasnt trying hard enough oh well she could find some one else willing to do the job. There had been many applicants since I started.

I dont piss around with other people like that anymore. I did have a job interview yesterday and will know more this coming week if I got the job or not.. And I have been filling out applications like crazy way before my decision to quit was final yesterday.. I have more time to get my Etsy Shop going and also find better employment.. I am hoping the Assisted Living one calls back. I was going to do housekeeping for them.. But if the Service Master one Calls back first. i will take that one first..

I am not picky. I just want a little respect OK. Is that so hard to understand in a job. Sara the manager at BK told me I wasnt trying as hard when I came back to work after hurting my foot. You know you try walking on a foot that is still sore and let me know how well you work.. I was moving as fast as I could.. Or felt able to move.

I dont know about fast food. I am done with it for now.. I am just done with it.. Sick and tired of it.. I am sick and tired of managers thinking they can bully us employees just because they make way more than minimage wage... Anyway I am done with BK.. I have to admit I cant even eat there food anymore.. I get a yuckie feeling..

Anyway one more thing and I will quit ranting today.. I have my Etsy site at the botton of my Blog here. I cant move it up for some reason.. If anyone has any suggestions I am more than willing to take them.. Check it out and let me know if there is something you want.. I have ordered some more Ribbon Yarn to make another scarf or something with. Not sure what i am doing with it yet.. I wanted four balls but didnt have enough in pay pal. That is how I am paying for most of my supplies that go into my Etsy site. Not using Jeff's hard earned money..LOL.. Ok Ok I am off to help Bri with her reading.

Talking about that she is wanting to try now that its after the 1st of the Year.. So we have been working on her big book again.. She is doing great.. Just need to her to realize she can sound almost anyway word.. and have her memorize those words she cant... thanks eveyone for being my friends... Talk to you all soon.. Will either make rounds later this afternoon or tomorrow..N..

UpDate.. I am so happy..I got a new camera today for my B-day and x-mas present from Jeff.. Our State Taxes came back today.. Yayyy... Will give more details as I learn how to use it. Its a Kodak and wonderful little thing so far.. So much clearer pix.. Will load some later for you..

I have to share with you that I lasted exactly 6 hours in fast food many, many moons ago. I never went back. I liked waitressing, office work was alright, my medical field jobs I enjoyed. Fast food? It's just not a good fit for me I guess...

Good luck in your job hunting. There are a lot of crappy managers out there - it's a shame. I hope that you are able to find a good one soon - a good manager can make the most crappy job bearable.

Thanks Grizzly Mama.. I know exactly what you are saying.. I hope for me too.. Well have to go get Jeff from work..

Beej said...

Aw, I'm sorry tweetey. Hopefully something better will head your way. xoxo

Beej dont be sorry. I'm not to be honest with you. I am not angry and I didnt even cry when i walked out on her..So that meant the job wasnt for me.. I felt like a ton of bricks had been taken off my shoulders..

Fast food restaurants are known for their petty tyrant managers. It comes with the territory. Good luck finding something else.

Thanks VV. I will find something else but just sick of fast food.. I have like eight applications out. Some one has to call back with good news...

Keeping good positive thoughts for one of those jobs to come through...!
You did the right thing, quitting BK....That woman obviously does not appreciate you.
And Congrats on your New Camera!

Yay, congratulations - if I had to work in the smell day after day I wouldn't ever be able to touch any of their food again either, ugh! You keep trying, one of these days you'll find a fit for you - the job market out there is rough - I applied for jobs I thought I might be able to do for 3 months - most were on internet, and 1/2 of those, scams. Not a good situation.

I wish you lots of luck getting a job where you're respected. They have to be out there. As has already been said here, fast food sucks for management at most places.

I'm thrilled for you that you've got a new camera! I hope you have a great time with it.

I just read all of your previous posts. Sorry I'm a lazy, lame-butt blogger friend. Hoping that your next post is telling us about your great new job!

Congrats on the camera. Yeah, screw BK. Giving you so few hours, you might as well look for something else. Plus, they weren't treating you right.
