So right now I work at Guaranty Bank and I am completely and utterly miserable. For the past couple of weeks I've cried everyday on my lunch break and everyday as I drive home from work. Now I can't cry on my lunch breaks any more because they've decided to "try something new" where they spread out the hours and have "people" work short shifts six days a week... oh wait, it's only me they're trying it on. So basically they schedule me for a 3, 4, or 5 hour shift to come in right in the middle of the day so I can cover for everyone else's luch and then I go home. When I asked about why I was scheduled like that and also why they wouldn't ever give me time off when I asked for it, I was told "time off is a privilege, not a right, and you've worked here the least amount of time so you haven't earned that right."
Oh, and did I mention the fiasco with my birthday? I requested my birthday off and was told I couldn't have it off because I had a mandatory training that I absolutely had to be at. Well, the training center is right across the street from pinkberry, so at least if I had to work on my birthday, I could have a giant pinkberry to make things better. The day before the training, the tell me, "we're pulling you out of training because we need you here in the bank all day tomorrow, and we'll just send you to the training next month." So I couldn't have it off because of the training, but now you don't feel like sending me so you're going to postpone? It gets better. I come in on my birthday and find out that my manager had called one of the girls who was supposed to come in that day and told her not to bother coming in because we had everything covered. And did I mention that it was that lady's daughter's birthday the same day too? Yeah.
Needless to say, I'm desperately trying to find a new job. I have never been this unhappy at work, not even when I worked as a pizza delivery cashier and had to fold pizza boxes for 5 hours straight. Unfortunately, my job search is turning up fruitless. I would appreciate your prayers, and if anyone hears of any job openings I'm open for almost anything at this point.
PS, sorry about the crazy ranting...
