Interestingly enough...
I hate Burger King. I got yelled at for asking why the ladies in the back don't wear gloves... Or wash their hands super often... Or never take things off when they expire and only make fresh stuff when they either run out or it's the beginning of a shift.
Isn't this how all the spinach shit got started? Plus I was hired because they wanted diversity in the store. Meaning I'm the only white person there. Even more frustrating is that I'm the only one who can fluetly speak english!!! It's insane!!! I can't talk to ANYONE!!! The girls in the back don't know any english AT ALL! It's intense! Especially during rush when special orders are often requested. They don't even know how to say "fries" in english!
I've always prided myself on my anti rascism... But I'm feeling really weak right now and it's hurtin me to fee lik this... Am I over reacting and being a stubborn redneck like my mother and father? Am I going down that road? I'm trying to be tolerant but being told that I have to learn spanish and that's perfectly PC while me trying to get them to say some English words are very very offensive to their culture?
I'm so confused right now... The last thing I want to do is offend anyone. (Some punk I make huh?) But this is very grating to me. I know I'm the minority... But is learning how to speak their language and fast really worth a crummy minumum wage job (That I only took to savce moolah for recording and tour and getting the hell outta there!!!!) I don't care if I lose it now. In fact... Unlike the other jobs I've had I am just gonna give my week's notice. I mean... It's hard enough when a co-worker can't understand you but when an entire store stares at you blankly and barrages you with a language you can't decipher that's sort of... I dunno...
Am I wrong to feel this way? I believe everyone has good in them. But the unsanitary conditions. The food prep. The money counting and drawers thing... And most of all the language barrier has just got me frazzled. And I'm supposed to work every day of the week and not get overtime!!! And the schedule is made every three or so days!
Am I over reacting or is this a legitiment concern here? I sort of want to tell the food health board on them... But part of me wants to help them out. But they almost seem like they don't even want to attempt to listen. :-\
Even the 4 managers and big manager.
And with how badly run the store is and me being the only english speaking person there it's almost like I've become the human pinata' *Excuse the comparison...* with the irate customers because the managers will pretend not to understand what they are saying when they're mad and turn on me! I don't think I deserve this? I know I've been raised to take the blame... That's actually kind of a cool lyric? Heh... :-)
Am I in the wrong here or are these legitiment concerns? I could get in trouble with the health board among other things. Please give me your opinions people. :-\
