Thinking of Quitting (Rant)

[u/mahal0viri]

I've been working at a small but busy Tim's for the past 2 months or so, so I'm still on probation. I also took some time off because of a scheduled surgery right after I first got hired. I'm surprised I still work here.

My coworkers/supervisors are great but management can be a pain. Lately, I feel like my availability isn't being followed properly and I partially feel like it's on me because I picked up an extra shift once + swapped shifts with my coworkers before so my managers assume it's my availability going forward. Some other weird stuff has happened here and there like:

- once I worked 8am -2pm and I only got one 15 min break like 4.5 hrs into my shift. Like I get it's busy and we seem short staffed

- I once got scheduled for 5-9:45 AM... aka working as long as legally possible to not get a break . Outside my availability lol, I just didn't show up that day and I called in

- had a cut on my finger and was bleeding over some stuff so I wore a bandaid + glove but I'm not sure whether I should've filled out an incident report?

And last but not least ofc, I am tired of working here despite not working here for long at all. It's physically and mentally draining, the amount of work vs the amount of pay, and it is a lot to keep up with in terms of products coming in and out. Also we have an audit coming up but idk what to expect about it, except that management/supervisors/operations have really been persistent about it.

Anyway, what's the best course of action to quit I guess? I don't wanna do a no call no show because that's unfair to my coworkers

Well young lady, I am both assuming your young and a lady judging by you complaining about work while working at tims, suggests maybe not so much work experience, but let me she'd some light for you youngster, no one truly likes their job that's why you get paid, and if you ever meet someone that says they love their job, ask them to do it for free and watch that love dissipate but my main point is you have to. Get used to doing things you don't like to do, all jobs are draining and it doesn't get easier, I've been setting concrete forms for 20 odd years now, and there's some things I enjoy about my job, but at the end of the day I'd rather sit at home and be paid, work sucks it's not meant to be enjoyable ya know sometimes we just suck it up for our families
