Ok, where should i start.
I work at "ICA" , Swedens biggest Supermarket.
Im a cool dude behind the cashregisters that hate the customers. I work the worst hours every. (like, this latest weekend, i worked 14-22 on friday, 15-22 on saturday and 16-22 on sunday). Today my boss told me that this old cranky lady is gonna do surgery to her eyes so i have to cover for her, and work extra. Later today, i was told to work extra for Mikael at work because he is gonna travel to egypt. And i also found out i have to work for another guy named Henrik, because he fucked up his leg or something. And on top of the cream, my silly boss fired 60% of the people workin in the cashier department. So i have to work extra because of that. So i think i have 60 extra hours / week now. Some days i work from 7 in the morning to 10 in the evening. And i also found out i have to work on the "floor" department aswell as the "cashier" department. So besides from sitting behind that stupid fucking cash machine listening to cranky old bitches and stupid immigrants who cant talk swedish i also have to take care and be responsible for the whole store some days now. That means i have to serve the cashiers if they need more change, fix the machines where people return bottles (and those machines whine about something like, 40 times / day). I also have to check the fruit stands, and help people who need more stuff. And finally, i also have to put the new stuff in on the shelves, which takes TIME. TIME i dont really have. Stupid bosses.
Wanna hear the best damn part? I worked for a year, waiting to get a steady contract, but instead i a extra year of being employed-yet not employed. hard to explain, i also have a low salary (7,5 $ /hour, when i should have 9,5 $ /h).
My job sucks so hard. I work the craziest times, i can never go out to the pub since i have to work EVERY weekend now. I cant meet friends anymore. My doctor say i have a serious problem with stress.
I wish i could quit this job. But i cant! Since there are no other jobs to get for me here, and i have to afford food , and pay rent, and etc. So you kids here who are still in school. STUDY GODDAMIT, And get a real job.
Phew. Almost Tom Clancy novel.
Oh well,
-Tisky the "raped" employee.
