Workplace experience

[Maddee]

I couldn't even get hired by the military, during a buildup, after being told I excelled in the tests at the recruiters.  Matrix

I think it's great you landed that job Maddee, it came at a time when it really helped.

I'm still there.  Despite being sabotaged much if the time by the supervisors making assignments,  I earned a new position.  More responsibilities ut the same pay.  And they changed my hire date, taking away four months of seniority, which is big at a place with this turnover.  Potential landlords are turning me down because I'm not working there long enough.  No # at amazon for anyone to explain when I started.

My car is old.  Just missed hitting my second deer.  If the car goes so does my transition.  No time most days. 

 

I'm off today.  My cat is sick.  Watching vid about jewish french resistance in WW2

Maddie, i know several folks who work at Amazon.  I know it can be a difficult place to work.  Hopefully in the itv will unionize so that better protections are put in place.  

I've done way too much deer "hunting" with cars over the years.  The last one i hit actually didn't do any damage to the car!  At other times i haven't been so lucky.  There is a deer crossing sign on the farm warning others but folks still hit them.  We have way too many in this area and too few hunters anymore.

 

Hugs,

I don't follow news.  Heard something like if amazon workers unionize, theyll just shut the facility down and build a new one down the road.  Our building pays less than most of the other ones.  Morale is low, supervisors quit weekly without notice, and everyone thats lleft is run at 200% everyday

 

There's alot of hunters this way.  Bow season starts Sept, guns in Nov.  Rest of the year is car season .

 

The last deer was HUGE and just missed me. 

 

Would like a shorter commute to work.  You'd think someone else would hire a hard worker with perfect attendance, but that has not been my experience in this life.  It's why I usually worked for myself.

 

WW2 was hell.  Watching about it makes me glad for my day

@Maddee you are an amazing and resilient young woman and I have faith in you. Your attitude is inspiring. You get an obstacle you dust yourself off and give it right back. Good for you.
