Negative Creep
Staff Sergeant
A very bad day at work, which I'll find hard to illiterate on without swearing, but here goes. Please excuse the rant.
One of the big bosses comes round, about number 4 in the company. He never spoke a word to any of us, yet told my manager to send me and some others home without pay as we weren't working hard enough. Apparently, I was walking too slowly whilst carrying (heavy) stock. My manager said he would but luckily told me not to worry, this being lucky as if I was sent home, I would not be coming back as I will not be spoken to that way. Also, he first demanded one of my collegues be fired because he'd left a ladder on the shop floor. He then decided he should just be sent home but luckily this didn't happen.
I've worked there 3 years without a single complaint or discipline and this jumped up **** on a six figure salary waltzes in and threatens my livelihood and only source of income. Earlier on another colleague had been flatly refused a payrise as there was 'no money in the company for it.' The company I worked for have just posted record profits.
What kind of world do these people live in? Do they have any idea what it's like to live on minimum wage (£5.54 an hour)? Thank God I'm back at uni in 6 weeks, then in about a year I will be off to New Zealand and be well away
