Most of the time my job is OK but it does get tedious. The problem here is many of them have never worked at a really hard job so thy get hung up on petty details and have much too much time to worry about things like scented products in the work place and Strategic plans and safety committees, Mission statements etc. Not that these things don't matter but it gets silly sometimes.
They never have any money for the staff. Instead they just installed three big-screen TVs for the public with a bunch of propaganda on them tooting their own horn, that no one ever looks at. Plus, expensive new furniture and the list goes on. They also spent about 6 million on a new addition to our building. Now the staff are hearing the same old story "we have no money, we won't be replacing vacant positions etc. so the staff will have to take up the slack. blah , blah , blah," The message is staff don't matter - image does.
I love my job :) I get paid heaps to drive and look after some other dudes yacht for him, he only comes for 3 weeks a year. The rest of the time I have it to my self. All of my expenses are paid including food and drinks 7 days a week 365 days a year (just in case he might arrive). The allows me to live it up and be super extravagant all of the time.
Enjoy your pain.
I don't love or hate my job. Work is never fun. But I do sometimes get tried of doing the same thing over and over everyday of the week. I call in sick once or twice a month to relax, but I feel very guilty for doing that.
My department's manager is an unsatisfied arsehole who needs to get laid more and spends most of his time in the office voluntarily although noone pays him to do so. The company itself has a staff turnover of 2.1 years, everyone works long long long hours without overtime pay or complaining and this is shamelessly required by the chairman. The employees are nice but timid, nonetheless, and I have been getting threats of getting fired because I don't do any overtime unless i get paid for it.
Humph. The USA used to have an pretty good educational system...but quite frankly it sucks, and I'm right in the middle of it. I'm not a teacher, I'm considered "support staff" which sucks in its own right. I have a fucking 4 year degree and am in college getting my master's, yet I get to work and I hear on our two way radios "everyone get to you post!" (within the school building). ALSO, I hear from my boss, the principal the other day that if a kid (highschool) leaves the school before the bell rings and goes out to have a smoke or walk to the corner store, I have to go outside, off school grounds and bring them back inside!! FUCK THAT. Its not my job to chase after kids who dont want to be here!! I would much rather be working with the kids who want to be here. Youcant save every child, but the ones who are ready to elarn, we should be there for them..teahcing them every minute we have with them. I'm so sick of the administration at my work worrying about image and all the little bullshit things like making sure kids aren't in the wrong bathroom, and making shure kids dont have their headphones on. IN THE COURSE OF THIS LIFETIME, IS WEARING A HEADPHONE DURING PASSING TIME REALLY GOING TO HURT ANYBODY??? nope! I'm so over it! If we in education can stop pissing our energy away taking hats off and taking cell ophones away, and actually worry about teaching the worlkd to our students, we would have so muhc more buy-in from our students!! And It would let me actually want to be here! I hate education! Why in the hell did I go into it!!!
I hate my job for oh-so-many reasons. Three people, one huge department dealing with 30-50,000 in business daily. One can only work the morning shift and no weekends, the other can work nights but no weekends. They both say it's for their kids, which is fine, but when I hear other coworkers planning to go party and drink at one of the mothers I work with, it makes me wonder. They can't come in to work on weekends because their watching their kid, but they can also party? Hmm...Beyond that, I have an insane amount of things to do at my job, and one guy at work hates me and constantly nags me because I'm not helping other departments. So because I'm doing MY job where it's understaffed, and not helping YOU, I'm in trouble? It makes no sense and I honestly think of ways to get him in trouble for harassing me daily. His job is to straighten shelves for 8 hours, and if he and the 3 other people in that department can't finish, EVERYONE has to stay late, sometimes over an hour past the time they're supposed to leave. If I can't finish pulling an order or re-stock my shelves, nobody cares and I'm told that the morning person will have to finish it. If I have a line of customers right as I'm supposed to leave, nobody comes to help, no matter how much I call. I'm told to have the customers DO MY JOB to get them out faster instead of having managers come to help. So despite the fact that nobody ever comes to help my department, I'm the bad guy for not helping everyone else. And how about this? I have to do pull orders from faxes, scan it, get it approved, re-stock my shelves, make sure nothing is expired, keep everything extremely clean, pull orders from people off the streets who haven't faxed anything, scan THAT and get it approved, do payments, ring huge amounts of groceries for my customers AND customers from departments where there's too many people, straighten shelves. But I'm also supposed to find time to straighten ten aisles? And if I DO everything BUT straighten the shelves, I'm criticised and told I could have found the time to do it??? When? If my supervisor ever WENT to my department to help out, he'd know how busy I am! Oh well, when the tell-all comes out, I guess I'll have the last laugh!
i just moved to Wisconsin with my girlfriend because she got a promotion. like a dumb ass i went with her. no i can even find a fucking job. at least you fuckers have a job to complain about. you ungrateful fucks. i wish i had job to bitch about.
Shut up. You all need to get a life. You all have jobs and are making a pay check when thousands of others are not. Spend time with your family and enjoy life while you are living or be negative all the time and go on stupid websites like this. You are all losers!!!!
I hate my fucking job so much now more than ever. I work for a very well-known rental car company with a green logo. I can't name the company or else they will probably fire me for doing so. They fucking hired me with all these damn promises and lies that never were delivered. They love to butter up new hires taking you out on outings and training sessions to show off their wealth while you're busting your ass and getting paid hourly. I fucking hate it so much. They make you work so incredibly hard and put up with soo much bullshiet that it isn't even worth the hassle in the end when they start laying-off higher ups that have been working for 4+ years. At this point I don't even want to get promoted because being at the bottom will at least help me keep my fucking job! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I work about 50+ hours a week and rarely ever get a lunch break because "we must satisfy the customer." Thats horseshit. I can't fucking stand this job. And the fucking economy is so bad I can't even find a new job that is any different than this one.
Thank you I hate my work

I fucking hate my job! I go in to work day in and day out, I hardly speak to anyone in person. I talk on the phone all day long! People call and vent all their life problems to me and I am just trying to place their order so my call time is low. I do care about people in general, but when the are crawling up my ass to be an advocate, care about the customer, oh but don't talk to them because we need you to be a robot and take as many calls as possible so we don't have to hire anyone else, it's gets to be a little confusing. I miss the days when I got to look someone in the face when I talked to them. And people are less likely to yell and get crappy when it's in person. They don't give a shit how mean they are on the phone. I don't get a lot of shitty people compared to other industries, but still, how do you get crappy with someone whose entire job revolves around helping you? And that's just the tip of the iceberg...
