What Should I Do If I'm In This Position At Work Again? Rk Again?

[abbeylee90]

I was facing a set back with my cleaning on my shift and the toilet floors hadn't been moped and obviously I don't work weekends so won't be done all weekend and my colleuge said just go as they won't pay me so dont do them any  favour's but I cleaned anyway. What do I do next time? Also deputy manager has all of a sudden decided all of a sudden it my job to clean his office. He's part of the reason I want to get out he's a pig.

Look - properly - for another job. You're obviously not enjoying the work and you're obviously not considered a valuable employee. Why stay? (Especially for 10 hours a week, it's not the job of a lifetime.)

[abbeylee90]

Exactly but there's not many full time jobs I can find need guaranteed hours. 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, after all these years of pretty rubbish jobs, you seem to think there is an ideal job out there for you - and I think that's not going to happen! You've 'needed' guaranteed hours for a while, but don't seem to have found anything over all these months (years?).

Regarding the deputy manager check your contract of employment.

[scorpiojo]

What setback, and why didn't you mop the floors?

[scorpiojo]

Abbey, one minute you don't want to leave, and the next you "want to get out"??

[calmck]

You showed initiative and cleaned the toilets. Good. The toilets are presumably part of your work. There might not be another set back so dont worry about it. Clean the areas you are meant to.  Does your contract specify what areas you are employed to clean? If his office is included then it is your resposibility. 

[abbeylee90]

Never how am I suppose to move out otherwise? Scorp things can change. Things happened. I'll check but haven't cleaned since I been there. 

[MarleneSB1955]

As someone said below, check your contract/job description and make sure you know and do what's required. Manage your time so you can complete everything. Just think, I'm getting paid to do x, y, and z. It's your responsibility to make sure x, y and z are done. You can always look for another job but in some cases, it's easier to just get better at the one you have. And you will find 'pigs' in most workplaces, just don't give them any opportunity to be one.

Abbey, what do you mean 'how am I supposed to move out otherwise?'  It's obvious that you'll never move out while your employment choices, attitudes etc stay the same. And the longer you're away from full-time work (anywhere), the harder it might be for you to cope with. 

[abbeylee90]

It has to be full time to move out. I was away from part time a while before part time again. The pig who I believe told my boss to say there has been an overtime ban.

[newmodarmy]

Abbey. You were offered another job, full time, and turned it down. I think you enjoy the free time sekco gives you and 10 hours a week is maybe all you can cope with. You also get the satisfaction of being able to moan about it and get lots of attention from us, knowing that it doesn't upset you enough to leave or even challenge your manager. Eg you seem to disbelieve the overtime ban but won't challenge it.

By the way I'm sure you told us at least 6 months ago he was a pig and that you'd been told to clean his office. If your role involves cleaning its up to your employer not you to decide what should be cleaned. If you want to question it go to their boss and ask.

[abbeylee90]

He didn't tell me he told my colleague working along aside me to tell. Yes I enjoy free time but need more money. I was persuaded by most to turn it down. 

[newmodarmy]

You complained in January about having to clean the deputy managers office. I'm sure it came up last year too.

 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, I don't think you were 'persuaded by most' to turn down the full-time job - I think you went with what you wanted to hear! You've needed 'more money' for at least two years, but have not really done much to make that a real possibility - you've listed many jobs/tasks you don't want to do,  and you are keen to work only Mon-Friday (preferably with daytime hours). I know that sounds quite harsh, but you will have to face facts.

[abbeylee90]

I don't mean by people just on here mean I know in general. Aslong as it  not a 0 hour contract because I was told id get full time in McDonald's but turned out 0 hours. 

[DDIL]

I don't think you could cope with full time! Jumping from 10 hours to 40? You barely manage 10 hours some weeks. 
Look for 20-30 hours.

I think you need to be realistic and unfortunately no one in your life is telling you that.

[scorpiojo]

//The pig who I believe told my boss to say there has been an overtime ban.//

Are you blaming him for your hours being cut? 

[newmodarmy]

Abbey's grasp of how businesses are run and how to deal with issues through the proper channels is rather lacking.
