Overworked, Underpaid, Underappreciated  

Entry made by Alex

Despite the great win on Monday night, I did come out of it with a bad twist in my left arm. I didn't think much of it until I woke up this morning and I could barely move it because of the pain. I think I've torn a ligament in my shoulder area. That said, I still ended up going to work. Even driving was painful. Let's just say that working today was not the best experience I've had. Thankfully KC was willing to do the last 3 hours of my 8 hour shift.

So... something happened today and it's made me really want to quit working at Gelare. I'm really starting to get sick of it. We're put under stressful conditions with high workloads and few workers using old or broken equipment. Not to mention complaints from our suppliers every few days asking us if the manager is around because they're chasing unpaid invoices from 5 months ago. I hope our manager understands that while she has the power to fire us, we have the power to put her out of business altogether. We know all the shortcuts she takes; health hazards, clapped out equipment and the like, inclusive.

Well, time to job hunt so I can quit that place. Retail, here I come :)
