By far the worst place I have ever worked... (I am currently trying to find a better place to work.) Our air conditioning and heating for the building have not worked properly the entire time I have been employed there, which is going on four years. During the winter it's freezing and during the summer it's hot. (Our dress code doesn't make allowances for this kind of stuff, but thank god for our store manager, who said until they fix it she gives us permission to ignore it within reason.)
In addition to this our stores don't have adequate pay-roll budget to keep at least two people there at all times, which wouldn't be a problem except for the fact that due to recent budget cuts that puts whoever opens the store working for seven hours straight without a break, because they are the only ones there. This is the case for every store in our district. Then they come up with this new rule that managers have to work at least six days a week, which means working relatively short shifts and essentially wasting gasoline on some days for shifts that wouldn't even be worth the drive. I knew when I got hired that we are given some paid vacation time off, but there training programs don't really work very well, right now we have been trying to train our newest assistant for over a month, so no one can use their vacation time until she gets it. These working conditions are ridiculous! They have to start treating us better, otherwise who's going to want to work there?
