Not one person since I started gave a notice and then quit two weeks later. About ten kitchen workers have come and gone in what six months, one overdose, a few arrests, a few fired, a few no call no shows. All they give a **** about is getting through the day. Every second from the moment they (we) open it’s full force pandemonium. The bosses avoid hearing your concerns like it’ll give them AIDS.



To them it’s exactly the same thing. Same with ****ed up backs, the flu, whatever...

It’s one card. I need this time off and I’m willing to lose my job over it. You’re either worth to them or not. That’s it. Lots of employees give 100% compliance but sooner or later it’s only a very job scared soul who doesn’t finally snap.

I know you think I’m prone to hyperbole but it is like that. And compared to teaching it’s a breeze.
