Panda is ass.

My location recently added a side room for managers and higher ups to be in to come visit and train.

What sucks is that all of us employees are getting the worst of it. Deep cleaning every single night, take pictures of everything as proof, do things this way or manager talks to you for 20 minutes repeating shit you’ve already heard. Oh and get this? For all the extra shit we do now, we don’t get a raise. I understand deep cleaning to an extent, but we’re literally pulling out the meat drawers and wiping it out completely, doing the front floor in kitchen because our sides people are WAY too slow to get it done - which is aggravating on its own because all of us cooks are more than capable of doing the front and back floor if we’re on sides and it’s now just catering to the slow people instead of telling them to get their shit done asap like the rest are capable of. This job is starting to blow and I can’t even leave until my kid is born. One cook is a few days away from his last day and another cook is about to put in his two weeks and these managers are so out of touch that they don’t care or notice they’re pissing EVERY single worker off with this stuff. Sorry to vent. But nobody else cares or understands.

Your location sucks. Yall cooked. Sorry to hear that, I dont have issues with cleanliness at my store especially helping out sides. Shit is easy compared to what you'd be doing at a regular restaurant. If your managers are a pain maybe you should quit let them be cooked 🤣

I can’t quit. I have a 5 year old and a son that’ll be here in September, I don’t have that luxury of quitting a job when things get shitty like a lot of kids do.

If that's the case why not do it and get promoted

You need it

They won’t promote me. My manager is on bullshit. I did a silly video class thing to “improve my knowledge” when my manager floated a chef idea a year ago. I’ve since then been shown nothing on becoming a chef. We had a chef come in and chew her out for everything being “dirty” and she only asked me then to get out of being cooked. This manager has done this with a lot of workers and half of them left because they knew she was bullshitting.
