In case you are wondering, if I swore then the title would be swear words!
At the risk of causing myself more trouble I am going to talk a bit about my job! I had pretty much stopped complaining about it ever since they found my site but this needs to be said and if they don’t know my feelings already then they would have soon enough!
See I work in a shop setting and we all have our little jobs to do. Over the course of my time there I have learned to do more than most of my colleagues there but that is not the point. See I am a firm believer in the whole “if you have a job to do than do it” school of thinking. My place of employment pays someone to come in and clean a few times a week. Just the front offices and the break room. We take care of the shop ourselves as far as cleaning goes.
Last week the “cleaning” lady decided that she didn’t want to do the restrooms or the break room anymore because they were too dirty. Cry me a river, a dirty bathroom in a shop full of guys, what a surprise. Anyway, the powers that be decided that she doesn’t have to clean them anymore, instead they have made a schedule up for us to do it. Some of us do it more than others and some don’t have to do it at all, but I digress.
One thing I don’t understand is why they are still paying her the same amount of money to do less work, the work that we are now required to do. As if we aren’t busy enough we have to take time away from production to clean the bathrooms and the break room!
Really, I don’t mind cleaning so much it’s just that it is her job, she is paid to do it. Plus the machine I work on is running constantly and has to be tended to at all times which means I have to get someone to come over and cover me when it is my turn to clean the room. Oh and get this stupid idea, if we are not able to be there on our day, WE have to make sure that our cleaning is covered by someone else, see now they are just getting lazy all over the place there!
I better stop now before I say something I regret, maybe something funny later!
