The "I Hate My Job" Thread

[G08]

Well another day, another punch to the groin.

Client on home confinement, charges pending are Aggravated Criminal Sexual Assault (Rape) and Child Porn. I have over 4 documented incidents where violated his home confinement. The police dept asked for a warrant for this dude due to an Agg Battery and Mob Action offense (victim was able to tell police this was one of the assailants). Dude comes to court, Asst State's Atty doesn't even attempt to get the Judge to sign the warrant, that is typed and ready to roll!! Judge doesn't ask how the asshole is doing on home confinement!!!!!!! The mother fucking criminal walks out of the courtroom, FREE.

Not only has he been accused of the Agg Batt/Mob Action shit, he was arrested in another county for Possession of Stolen Motor Vehicle and Resisting Arrest. WTF more does the State need?????

Needless to say I have ramped up my efforts to get the fuck out of this job. I don't even get pissed anymore, I expect the worst to happen. come to my county if you want to commit some crimes and get away with them.

I'm terrified to ask where you live, Otis...

[Otis Day]

Well, without being exact, you never know what Judge or State's Attorney may get on here (they would know who I was after reading my rant though), I live in west central IL.

Today's WTF moment - guy misses his second court hearing in a row. He has been given notice, so there should be no excuse for his absence. No warrant sought and they will just send him another notice. It is like come to court when you effing feel like it.

[mmmc_35]

It's like that everywhere I know of. My county is very similar. We maybe a tick below Otis crazy county but it's similar.

Funny you should hashtag that wab. Went in there for the first time in years last Friday night. It has been thru some change of ownership, multiple times in the past 20 yrs. It got to be one place to avoid. It hasn't change thru all the owners.

Well, well, well, guess who showed up in court today? The dumb fucker from above. Guess what? The Asst State's Atty actually had the warrant.

As I am telling the court reporter why this little fucker needs to be locked up for a long time, the judge looks at me and says, " Wow, you sure have an attitude about this guy." Somebody needs to.

The kid's atty and the State's Atty have conversation in the hallway. They come in and the pussy ASA quashes the warrant

He agrees to release him back on home detention, which he has violated numerous times (including being arrested twice while on it and away from the home) to his 85 yr old great grandmother who has dementia and the court knows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I walked back into the probation office, told the secretary I was sick and would not return today and probably not tomorrow either. Our judicial system is fucking worthless. The fucking judge knew this kid had violated the home detention order previously, by committing 3 felonies, and he has no problem going along with the agreement. WEak ass mofo

well shame on you ... you obviously do not have the concerns required to assist this troubled youth [/sarcasm]

this mirrors a case near me ... 16 year old, suspected gang ties, busted running a mobile meth lab, given home detention and 2 weeks later is a suspect in the murder of a member of a different gang (I'll try to find the article to link to ... it was in my local paper, not the Post)

with all this noise about cracking down on drugs, I would have thought the mobile meth lab involvement would have gotten him serious time ... the fact the vehicle was registered to a different person (who they are still looking for) played a role I guess whether it should have or not

[mmmc_35]

I had two of the best weeks at my job in years Otis. My buddies and I took two home burglars and a murderer off the street. The murderer ended up in one of the craziest stories ever. I can't talk about it but it's insane.

I know Otis the system can frustrate, I see that more the not. However occasionally we win.

I am starting to hate my job as well. Just being a retail manager sucks balls. Have a manager that is obviously on drugs that nothing happens to him. Now I have to cover his shifts so he can get into a program which means working Sundays until his return. Been 2 months now. Pisses me off.

yeah sometimes the guy who makes the best effort on the job gets to carry the biggest load - been there, done that

when you apply for a promotion is the time to bring up your history of being a team player - a fair employer should give due consideration to your carrying the extra burden of working Sundays, being away from family, etc, for the benefit of the company and your fellow employee - it is an extra sacrifice that should factor in to your value as an employee

other side of the coin is if you bitch a lot about it that works against you

I think if a guy is working for a fair employer he better think twice about changing jobs.

I keep majority of my complaints to myself. There are some I feel the need to bring up to upper management though. I'm currently the only manager on staff that has not called out sick in over 3 years. Most managers can't go a month without calling out. As far as raises go I got $.50 lol. Hard to be the reliable one at that raise IMO.

[wab]

I know it was just a part time gig so I could buy beer and tacos, but jesus I hated retail. I absolutely did not have the temperament or personality for it.

I mean, you just saw me fold that goddamn shirt...at least make an attempt to fold it back up and not toss it back down in a heap.

Oh... it's 8:59 and you see me closing the gate, but you'd like to return those 5 bags of clothes because you maxed out your credit card like an idiot but still need to buy books for the semester and want to do it RIGHT NOW.

I hated it.

[UOK]

I have been lucky enough never to have worked in retail, but I did more than my fair share of shitty temp jobs.

Call centers, mostly.

shittiest part-time job I had was manufacturing fiberglass motorcycle fairings - wore sweaty white disposable coveralls that you had to seal with duck tape around the neck, sleeves and legs for doing fiberglass finish work - hand tools all run off compressed air - routers, sanders, polishers - fiberglass dust airborne all over the shop, inside your coveralls, clothes, eyes ears bellybutton every place on your body - plastic goggles & paper dust masks for moral support - three guys ran the glass chopper spray gun in a closed room with sweaty respirators - everybody wanted to work the spray room it paid the most resin vapors all day got you dizzy and killed sense of smell if you did it a lot.

End of shift washed your hands clean in acetone, go home itched like crazy - couldn't take a hot shower it opened up your pores, that really cranked up the itch so I used to take a long cold shower with a six pack right after work.

Fiberglass dust wore off your body gradual over couple days but the worst was couldn't afford AC so hot weather I'd be sweating so any body movement whatsoever the moisture of the sweat works the fiberglass particles around on your skin especially where the skin rubs back and forth like your sweaty armpits, crotch, crack of your ass even after a cold beer shower which really only helped while you were in it - ass itch city all over again as you dried off.

22 years old never let myself have a single thought about sex that whole miserable summer no sex no way forget about it - my no sex ass itch cold beer shower summer job in 1973 free love and hot chicks coming up like wildflowers.

my piles bleed for you guys

[bearsfaninaz]

Got demoted today. So might have a drink for first time in 20+ years

Yeah, the AIDS outbreak ultimately dampened some fun times for everyone...

[Otis Day]

Well, shit is hitting the fan. I locked a kid (he is on home confinement and was picked up in Missouri with his drugged up dad, who had to be given a shot of Narcon to get him out of his heroin OD) up last week for being out of state without permission and admitting to smoking cannabis while away from home. The Asst SA was attempting to tell me that I could not lock him up since he was with a parent. I boiled over and told him "Fuck you.!!" Basically told him this kid is a shit bag (has a rape and 3 other felonies pending) and if he wasn't going to do a fucking thing I was. I then told him if he didn't like, FUCK IT!" I told him to not come to me for recommendations on these criminals anymore and he could do whatever the fuck he wanted. Walked away and slammed my door on the fucker. This all took place in front of my supervisor, who supported my outburst.

When this kid got to Court, the plan was to release him again!! But at least this time it would have been on a GPS monitor/ankle braceet. Thank goodness no family members showed for him.

[mmmc_35]

Well he will get picked up soon. I bet within a week he cuts it of, or stops charging it.

[Boris13c]

my life working in a real life Dilbert environment :

manager assembles a group of us to go over a "new and exciting project" (which we always mentally translate to "great - here we go again") ... says he chose us because we have shown how well we can work together ... says he will e-mail us the overall project portfolio, with separate e-mails for specific items of priority ... says he'll be gone for a couple of weeks so that should give us time to have all our assessments done so we can begin ordering things when he gets back

he doesn't send the files to us until like 8:30 at night, which of course we don't see until the next day (after he has left on his trip)

the files are CAC badge and password protected

none of us were given the password he assigned

[mmmc_35]

Gov work boris? We have our IT guys do that at every update. New program/software done on Friday as they leave for vacation. Everyone's fucked.

Don't tie one on to tight.
Sucks though, big party cut?

No pay cut, but severely hurts my chances to move up to get my own store at some point. The shining light is every employee doesn't understand the demotion and that makes me feel like they agree that it was a bs demotion. Also I didn't have that drink.

[Boris13c]

Gov work boris?

yes

ever since CAC badge verification has been implemented, most things have gone pretty smooth ... the problem is the option to add a password with the CAC verification is still there, and those that choose to do that are just very stupid about it

[leomaz]

It’s a tough job with a great view

[mmmc_35]

I have been very busy at my work training for a new position. I like the job but in to the 3rd month of training of 4 months is getting long. As a trainee you do more, and end up doing a lot of paper work on your own time.

So devoting extra time during training has made the wife do less at home. Weird combo but it's becoming a fucking grind. It has made me post less on here which isn't bad because the Bears are a black hole of heart break .

[Otis Day]

Me to the Judge and the State's Attorney.

[Rusty Trombagent]

good news for anyone here who:
-hates their job
-hates working with ugly dudes

[Otis Day]

My supervisor has started to get on my ass entirely too much. I don't even get in my office, don't even get my fucking coat and hat off before she is meeting me at the secretary's desk. she is starting to tell me what the hell I need to do when I have not even got comfortable yet. Maybe she is sensing my hate for the job and how my performance is suffering. She needs to realize she is not helping.

And this working the week after Christmas sucks!!!! I have had this week off for at least the past 12 years. My co-worker (with more seniority) changed up on me this year and took this week.
