I do NOT care about my job

Don't you guys just get furious with the insane inflation rate and your salary is as much as 10 years ago?

That's how I feel about my job. I am 28 and get paid just as much as when I was 18 years old (close to minimum wage) and when I mention this to my employer they don't do anything with it.

So basically I stopped giving a fuck. I work as a salesperson in a store with a 0-hour contract and everytime they even put a tiny bit of pressure on me or want me to study about the brands and shit outside work in my freetime I just REFUSE.

It is just stupidity to me that even on a 0-hour contract they try to put you under pressure and make you obey to their shit. I am going on holiday for 6 weeks and this was not allowed under their rules and regulations and they tried to make me feel bad because the other colleagues want to go on holiday too and they have a limited amount of people and it is difficult to hire new people blabla. I am going anyway, don't need their approval for how I live my life.

I mean, pay more and get employees easier. But no way they will ever do that and now it's my problem?

Doesn't this stuff make you guys angry too? It's eating me alive haha.
The only thing that keeps me sane is that I am fucking good at the job and that the customers are great people. But still, it is not enough for me to stay there in the long run. They can fire me anytime and I wouldn't sleep a second less. Probably sleep better lol

Hope you guys like my rant and otherwise I hope you relate

 

Yea thanks for your replies. I'm glad you relate a bit to it.

I just hate getting fucked over by the system of society and I am planning on designing my escape but it takes time. I can use my skills much better somewhere else working for myself probably.

 

Thanks for the reply. I agree to bring more gratitude into my life, but if I am going to be satisfied with just 'breathing' then I will always stay at a certain spot in my life and never reach my goals. I gotta have a bit of anger inside of me to reach what I want, but you are 100% right that I need to be a bit more grateful right now and be more happy whilst reaching my goals.

I know man, I get paid $11 an hour and they keep messaging me every week if I can come to work because they don't have enough people. I am studying full-time, so I can't even come and then you sort of sense that they dislike you because you keep saying 'no' to their random job calls.

Yes I am going to start looking for a different job or I might just go into freelancing. The whole world is sort of down on people because of this reason and because there's 14 year old kids on tiktok making a hundred grand a month or 18 year old girls on onlyfans making millions... and people are wondering why they do their shitty ass job.

Loved reading your reply man it is a very interesting way to look at it. It is common sense ofcourse but it is something to easily forget. I have done my job always in a good way. Maybe not the best as I could have done my jobs, but my ex bosses and co-workers are still friends with me and I still sometimes have a coffee with them because they liked me.

It's the same with my current job, but this job pays way less than my previous jobs and I am less motivated to do my best when I sort of know they will not pay me more for my hard work and I already have good references. I am doing my job properly, but I am not going to spend any time in my freetime to read into things about my part time job as I am studying something else.

 

Thanks for your reply pal. Topic is a bit old though, I already quit the job and I do now work for double the hourly rate.
