About to get in the shower and get my stuff together for work tomorrow. Got to pack breakfast and an interview outfit. Hardee's is having open interviews from 2pm-5pm tomorrow. I'm off at 1:30pm. I'm going to have to cheat twice this week and eat at McD's tomorrow and again Thursday, but tomorrow I'll walk home from Hardee's and work it off.
I'm fed up with McDonald's. They're not promoting me as promised, and the clientele is becoming ruder and ruder and even more stupid by the day. If I don't get out and get out soon, I'm going to snap and end up either walking out or getting fired. Yesterday was my ten-year anniversary with the company and not even a word of recognition. I brought it to GM's boss' attention, and HE said something, but after I brought it up.
Not many employees have lasted as long as I have, I can count on one hand the number of crew who have been there as long as I or longer. With the turnaround in this business, making it to five years is something to be proud of, IMO. As for me...I go in early, I stay late, I have gone in TWICE in the last two weeks alone on my days off to fill in, I never complain about being asked to stock sauces (fill the bins with grape and strawberry jelly or hot and mild picante sauces), make salad dressing packets, or other odd jobs. I may JOKINGLY complain, by saying "No me importa" ("it doesn't matter to me" or "it's not important to me" in Spanish), but the managers I say that to know I'm just kidding and I'll gladly stock whatever they brought me to stock. Besides, I can never say that with a straight face anyway. I'd be a terrible poker player. LOL
Once opening Manager A was with me in drive-through early in the morning. She was on cash and I was taking orders. She'd run up and gotten six or seven picante sauce and jelly bins to fill, and set them by her register. "Don't touch these," she told me, "I'll fill them. You do it every morning." When her back was turned, I sneaked over and grabbed a couple and started filling them up.
