My boss took me from 35-40+ hours to less than 20 in the last two weeks, taking my income to less than half what I was earning, after enough employees were finally hired. Something tells me I'm not getting the assistant manager job I applied for. Now I'm going to need to get on EBT, Medicaid, Energy Assist. again, so I don't spend all my income without any way to save.
This really depresses me, as I told my manager over a month ago that my goal for this job was to advance enough so I could save to move in a year.
The next two weeks, I'm only scheduled for 14 hours FFS!
After being at 35-40+ for 4 months, this is a real kick in the teeth.
Makes me feel like my boss really wants me to quit, but doesn't want to fire me.
Pisses me off is what it does.
I think I need to just get smashed. Red, red wine... 🎶
@Astartiel Sounds almost vindictive. Not knowledgeable about employment/contract law your side of the puddle, but that sort of shit wouldn't stick over here that's for sure - unless it's on a zero hr contract which pays peanuts and gives the bastards too much power over employees lives.
@Clavius_42 I wish I had any recourse or power over my employment like that, but for all our shouts of freedom, American businesses follow a very autocratic ruler/serf format that's always sickened me.
