what do you think of work situation at grocery storeim a cashier and i have worked at my job for a few months, i like it and am nice to customers, but some of my coworkers and supervisors have flat out refused to help me, when we are busy. When i say help, i mean bag groceries, which is actually their job, or answer my page when i need help (supervisors) then when i go to see why they aren't answering my page, its becuase they are talking to their friend. one week while i was covering for the full time employee, the other employees were making sly comments about how that employee does this and how that employee does that. of course it was the lazy employees making comments. i have brought tis issue up with my immediate manager and store management and they did a little bit, but these people just go back to being nasty when management is not there. i adressed this with my union rep who said he will talk to the store manager, but i never heard anything back so i dont know if he actually did. plus my union rep who i had never talked to before was extremely nasty and acted like i was wasting his time, and is not even the rep for my district anymore. recently my manager who is catty and nasty, tried to write me up for bagging in a way, that they say is worng, but they had me bagging like this, for 4 months before anyone ever said anything about it, and they do constantly watch me at the register. may i also add that i was never properly trained? i was put with one cashier for one day, and then put by myself, even though my manager knew i never did cashiering in a grocery store before. also when i was picked up to go to jail for a ticket that turned into a warrant my immediate manager told everyone, and i guess they were saying they were gonna fire me. so anyway when my manager tried to write me up i told her i can find anopther part time minumum wage job anywhere, and she said well we can just stip this right now then. so obviously they don't need me and want me to quit, so i am planning on transferring to another store. I will nmot quit, because i am a good employee, i have learned how to use the register and i do it quickly, i am nice to customers and try to give them great service and listen to their concerns, i also try to check them out in a timely manner, which is why it botheed me when i wasnt getting any help, because i just needed help with the customer, which is what the baggers and supervisors are supposed to do so people dont wait in line too long. i used to have open availability, which i only changed because my car got impounded, and i cant get it out cause i make minimum wage, but they still hav seven days a week from me from 8am -8pm weeekdays and weekends 9am-8pm, and on sundays i walk 45 minutes from a bus stop to get to work and 45 back to the bus stop to get home. i never called in until i had to go to jail, but now i call in when they are rude to me. i also did not complaingin about fluctuating hours like 34 hours one week and 18 the next. any what do you think the deal is? im already ready to transfer, because they are extremely nasty people, but what insight from true experiences that you have seen can you give me?

How many people..............So how many people are above you in the company and/or organization you work for? Of course this question would not apply to you if you are the owner and/or self-employed.

Secretary and boss relationships?After 8 years I returned to my first job as secretary in the same company. I still have my responsibilities from my previous position on top of now being a secretary. I have a different boss. He is messy and does not make time to go over paperwork with me so I can file/organize his desk.

What do you think of this situation at work?I've been a supervisor at a long term care facility for about 2 years now. I have a vacancy for a nurse that I interviewed for and the candidate is someone I know well. It was a panel interview and she interviews exceptionally well. I contacted her to let her know that she was the successful candidate. I contacted my boss to say that I had chosen someone but that I wouldn't finalize anything without his permission. He seemed a bit angry and asked if I had contacted his references and I said that I was one and that I was sure that I could get another from another supervisor as was the procedure when I had interviewed with other colleagues in the past. He was further exasperated and told me that I need to communicate with him more. I didn't see the issue because this candidate is someone I know very well and my staff all really like this person too and I knew I could get an additional reference to support this person. I also contacted m boss to get his approval before I finalized everything. Was I wrong? - Asked by Female, 29-35 |
