  1. the place ive worked for 3 years is always leaving me and another guy in the dust by going on vacations or other personal matters.It leaves just 2 or 3 of us to run the town and we get backed up or just kick but all day.I never complain because i always know i will want time off too.,,,,,,,,
  2. ,,,,,,,,,,So for the last 2 months i have honestly felt postal and need some time for my head.Ive been watching everyones sceduals and last week told the manager i cant take it anymore and they got to let me at least take 2 days of my 5 owed.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
  3. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,last week he said just fill out the form and put it in my box,he just checked his box today.He called me in and asked if i can wait until next week and made it clear that they would be disapointed if i said no.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
  4. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,This is after they skipped a year on me as far as a raise and reveiw and gave me one years raise for 2 years work.All our customers ask for me only cuz im cool like that,lol,and im always told how thankfull they are for my work and loyalty and so on.
  5. Sooooooo,i went and talked to the owner and said basicaly that im unhappy and feel neglected as far as what i need back from them.Now i helped my father run a company and im in with owners and such all over this town so i see things from both sides.Unfortunatly he is also a sales guy and talks like one trying to through you off but it dosnt work on me,lol.My week ars raise was just a few weeks ago,he is going to see how much more he can get me next week.
  6. problem is,i realy am feeling postal,not gonna hurt nobody,just wish i was dropped into a forest for a week with nobody around before i drive my car into a wall.My head was fully prepared for the 4 day weekind i was taking.I mean fully prepared,lol.I just cant get it back on straight.
  7. So i now i may be getting more cash but i know its still not going to be much so whatever,im always looking around.Sorry for the rant,strange day but dang these guys will use you like theirs no tomarow.The story is much more complex and bad but ive cryd enough,sorry guys.I hoped just typing this would help me.Stress is just killing me softly lately.:(
 
that sucks, i know what it is like to want time off so badly then get shafted by work, hopefully you can get things going better :thumbsup:
 
Keep looking. It sounds like your boss is an a** and taking advantage of you. If you put your foot down, you may be looking for a new job. Do you like it there otherwise? If so, find a back up job and be prepared to quit. Good luck.
 
What kind of work do you do?

no the feeling all to well i had to quit my job like that..... got to the pont i was gonna go postal
 
service all the copiers,printers,huge 50 thousand dollar printers and rizos,duplos you name it.All our acounts are the schools and school districts.Ive got alot lot of connections knowing this many ppl so im always looking.Ive known these machines for 13 years and they know it so they stick me on all the hard crap.Lots of customers will be mad if i leave,my boss acts like he knows that but just still dosnt respect it .We are loosing 2 of our best guys in a month and we will be very stressed.That and the ppl they keep interveiwing have felonies or no licence and so on.That should make me look even better and i brought all this up.We will see.I still cant beleive tonight was going to be my friday night,lol.I need some drinks but ive been all good in the gym,lol.
 
Yeah, I'm familiar with your job - I'm a school teacher. That is one tough job, those machines can mess up in a million different ways. Rizos... Fast as lightning when they are properly maintained, but finicky as can be if not!
 
yeah its hard because you never realy finish a job knowing hey,i kicked its but and wont see it for a long time.Too many ppl using it and im at the same dang ones sometimes daily,weekly and so on.It never stops and unlike the feeling you get teaching somebody something new or servicing a car or whatever,im sure to be back in the same machine until well,i go postal,lol.Arnald cut the school budgets so bad here and these schools are loosing ppl left and right.No money for new machines that should have been replaced last year.
 
I feel ya... I felt like that, then the boss said do you and two others who were in the office want to help make all the staffing decisions for next year... Now we can cut the dead weight and hire the people who are willing to do more than what the contract says... There is always someone wanting to get paid for not working... trouble is they need the hard workers or they would be jobless... I have learned just to do your best and only ask for things when it is necessary... Then you are almost guaranteed to get what you want... Get all the connections to go else where when the timing is right...

oh and schools always need to replace their tech... it is alway out dated... its almost like it is bought that way...
 
yeah this school has about 2 million more miles on the machine than our reps will even talk to us about,lol.Sad realy for all of us.One of our largest high schools just got rid of 11 teachers and staff,5 more to come before next week.Got rid of wood shop,dance and drumline.This is a huge school in the fancey hood too.Its happening all over here and theirs no hope for new machines now.
