Why do people go that route? Why do people kiss butt on the job? Or at least, why do people kiss but on low wage jobs? Workplace politics are
I've worked in retail the past several years & still have had the same job
2.5 years. The last part is VERY important. Anyway...last week I was called into the manager's office for the 1st time and had a "discussion" about my "attitude". Add to that...he was concerned I was not a "team player".
In terms of kissing brown...I've had "customers" (less than human beings) who have no problem screaming at the top of their lungs how much of an a**hole I
am if I don't/won't assume the position. This is the 1st time anything the managers have said anything at all to me...with never having been written up about anything. Rarely ever call off sick...except if I am death's door.
At the other one...the "team" player remark come from another employee in another department who refuses to look for anyone else to help move whatever
it might be. I get busy & tell her...I'm not a "team" player. Maybe I
should've asked her if she wanted to install shower rails on my arse to help her have an even better method to help herself.
disgusting. All honest employees deserve equal respect. I even saw a
dude give a shoulder massage in his suckery. They promoted him quickly.
I ended up applying for/getting an overnight position stocking the shelves...which means no dealing with jerks...sorry customers or needing to bend over to make other employees look good. People think this is a bad move for me...but at least it keeps me out of prison by not hurting someone who deserves it. I can go into work...do my job with my music playing & go home. F*** everyone else & their feelings of getting in the way of the employees/managers not making big enough of a bonus to take care of their mistresses.
