work rant...

Aug 13, 2006 00:42

I talked to Matt today about my Year-In-Review. Said something to the affect of "Yah I talked to you guys awhile ago about it and it never happened." His response was that he would never possibly forget something like that; after detailing how there was one "funny" occasion where he'd promised to stay until we were all breaked but he left before I'd had anything to eat cos he just forgot. I tried to tell him that I really did speak to him about it, but he told me that I was in fact wrong (he is obviously infallible). It was obvious to him that I should submit to his superior will and then he would take care if it (even though he should have done it in May).

It might not seem like a big deal to a lot of people, but that fucking pissed me off. My Year-In-Review is important, because it would give me a raise and they might be forced to retroactively pay me for three and a half months (that's a lot of money). I do not like being blown off just because he has an ego.

I spoke to Jen about it and I was telling her that when I spoke to both Abe (store manager) and Matt (manager that does schedules...) about the Year-in-Review, Abe said Jen had told him about it. Jen reminded me that she wrote a note which they both read. I've brought it up to Abe three times since I was paranoid and thought Matt hated me (he doesn't, he's just a condescending ass to women sometimes. Oh we lowly women). Each time I was told it would get taken care of and until then I thought I'd just be a good employee.

A part of me thinks I'm an ungrateful ass and should be thankful that I have a job, being that I'm a worthless seasonal employee. I just feel like I deserve a raise. They probably won't give me an actual raise, it'll be something like five cents. They'll do that just to piss me off. It would be nice to be paid $8.00/hour, but no a fifty cent raise is just too much to ask.
