Corporate Uniform

topic posted Sat, September 10, 2005 - 10:06 PM by  Unsubscribed
All my black chef pants were dirty so I had to wear one with a pattern. Black with veggies on it. They made me go home and put the blacks on. They even gave me 4 bucks in quarters to wash them.
So I left work and went to the laundrymat. Then went back to work. I worked 15 hours that day too.
Ain't that some crazy shit?

          Yea, I think I've finally found a restaurant that has finally made me want to get out of the business. I'm swimming in bullshit. So sick of it. I'm working for mean bastards who will lie to your face and make you squirm for their own enjoyment. Here's a weird example:
          One of my co-workers- the only one I like- is a cashier. She stocks condiments-the F&B was putting Saltines away. They had been out a few day.
          She said-oh, they are in...good. He tells her they had been there the whole time, where they always are. She said she was puzzled because she couldn't find them. Truth was..the Saltines did come in that day with Sysco. He just lied so she would look stupid.
          Isn't that the most assinine thing you've ever heard?
          This is where I am, and I'm gettin' out!

            I know what you mean. I...am somewhere that has felt so DRAINING. It's funny, I try to adjust my attitude, to realize that nothing in this business is easy....

            But, there are certain things that are just UNNECESSARY. And, it boggles mymind that this world is so bitter that people GET OFF on making other ppl feel bad.

            fuck that place, girl. Follow your intuition, you are allergic to the idiocy.

    stick up for your rights.federal labor law says that if you are required to wear a uniform ,you must get paid for that time.I worked for Sodexho,they wanted you to clock in after you got in uniform.
    I didn't find this out till after they fired me for trying to start a union.I got unemployment for about a year,but should had them reinstate me[the union dropped the ball].
    I could have gotten them to reimburse me for about a 1/2 hr. each day for the year I was there.
    that would 've been about $1000.FOR EACH PERSON<<IN THE KITCHEN!!!
    All those corporate food services serve the worst food they can get by w/&then the GM's get big bonuses for figuring out how to screw more of the employees out of their legitimate pay.

      Yea, they paid for the washing-just not on the clock. whatever to them. I left. I'm actually working retail now. Walking in as Asst. Manager. Interesting to say the least. I hope I'm still welcome here-seeing as I'm not cooking at the moment. :O)
