Well, it seems I made a little mistake - they didn't tell me the company was in trouble, the first week I was there I got a letter from the managers saying that my pay might not go in due to 'unforseen circumstances' and since then I've only been paid on the correct day and directly into my bank account like you're sposed to about six or seven times. The rest I've been paid in cash (via the financial dude they've got in who is now holding debenture over the company). Now this financial backing dude is also sleeping with one of the bosses (there are two), and he's decided that she should now be on the production floor. Never mind that shes got NO training - that before she bought into the company she was the receptionist - that after 11 years she still can't figure out how to get an attachment off the email - that the boy had to teach her how to bind books and the one day he let her do it without supervision she fucked 37 out of a 100. The finance guy called us into a meeting and when he heard the other boss hadn't done something she was supposed to, he got mad and said that he would close the doors if she didnt pull her head in. Not really what you want to hear when you come back from beaverement leave. And then he couldn't figure out why I burst into tears. Fuckwit. If mum, the boy and I didnt work there I would attempt to stick this out, but the fact that they're in court on Friday to find out if we're being put into liquidation kind of made me think TIME TO GET THE FUCK OUT. So I applied for a job a while ago and didnt hear anything. So I've been looking every so often. Then last week I got a phone call for an interview. I went. It rocked. Theres a new company starting up - they already bought a regional tv station and now a newspaper - which is where I would be working. They think its time to put competition back into the paper world in Christchurch. The Press has had a stranglehold over the city for too long. I got the job, but its a minor pay cut. But I'm taking it anyway. Lets hope this one doesnt fuck up. |
It sounds like you're leaving a most unusual establishment.Good luck! |
|
I just figured out I took a $3000 pay cut when I took this job. I will mention this to the director of my department tomorrow, although I doon't mind so much since I recieve full medical, dental and vision. |
you broke down and cried in your bosses office? |
Moonit's Nana died just recently. But damn, I could sure use some beaverment leave. Nuk Nuk. |
|
|
Apparently I am getting my wages in cash tomorrow. Fuck I hate that. I just spend it instead of being a good unit and sticking it in my bank account. |
|
I might count it. I could buy my lunch with it. and piss off the shop peoples. |
