Get woken up early by a phone call, answer it, it's one of the guys under me at work. Kids on a bunch of puffed up rah rah crap about how works screwing him over because his check is next to nothing for two week.
This is the exact same kid who will gripe and moan the entire shift about not being able to leave early. We're are scheduled 4p.m-9p.m we usually finish our main job in 2-3 hours. Then for the rest of the shift they just want us to do little piddly stuff. Go get buggies, help customers, sweep this isle , do your daily online training......easy money. But no they feel working their butts off for 2hr and going home makes perfect sense.

Whatever my manager hase just been saying whatever lately and just letting them go. End up work 4x as hard for a 1/4 of a shift to leave crazy We tried to warn them it's not a good idea . Only one has a second job but whatever.

Ask the kid if he's looking at his time sheet. He says yeah. I ask how many hours it says he made the last two weeks ,say like 26. I ask how much he makes an hour says $11 something. I get really quiet hoping something would click...... Nope he asks how much I usually make , I tell him , he starts going off again, I tell him I'm averaging like 50hr a week ( they let use come early and leave late alot because we're understaffed many times). Kid say he doesn't see how that matters , and how j need to talk to someone about fixing his check and getting him a raise.....
crazy One thing about me, I really don't like getting woken up early especially for stupid crap like this.... I just cut him off tell him I'll bring him to the store supervisor and we'll have a chat about it when I clock in and hang up.....
Lord have mercy, I'm so happy I'm moving to another position next week tired

My phone goes on DO NOT DISTURB at 10pm and comes off at 6am.

I tell the 20 or so under me they can call or text any time but don't expect an answer/reply until I get to it laugh

Oh and I have some that will whine about wanting time but leave like the place is on fire if given the opportunity confused

Go easy on the kid Wolfdog.

He's used to getting a trophy even when he didn't win.

A young liberal.

What does "guys under me at work" mean?Are you his boss?Is he supposed to report to you?


Basically since my department has never really had a actual manager until like last few months and know I know how to run stuff back here they made me a "lead" I'm basically the middle man between the crews they keep hiring the department supervisors and the store supervisor. Most of the time if they have a problem they tell me because their terrified to talk to anyone in charge
So no I'm not their literal boss but I'm like a pseudo manager foreman type thing.
