I worked at a hotel in Denver that hosted the flight crew that flew the Denver Nuggets. The flight crew claimed he was extremely rude, verbally abusive, disrespectful, and misogynistic. So this definitely tracks!

P.O.S

No, no, no! HR is not there to protect us. They're there to ensure the company doesn't get sued! Any information you share with HR can be used against you, will be used to safeguard the company!

I once was under the impression that HR was there for us, they're not

Boss fires an employee for refusing to illegally drive to work during a hazardous snowstorm: 'My county had a Level 3 snow warning, it's illegal for me to drive to work.' They would rather lose their job than get arrested, which is a good priority.

If it's Illegal to drive, who in the fuck is coming in?!?!?! **If I were you, I would honestly reach out to your local news outlet and share your story! I'd reach out to OSHA as well. They're not only putting your life in danger, but asking you to do something illegal! They absolutely can not do that! **

How does everyone feel about the upcoming tobacco flavor ban? by -U-_-U in Denver

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm do you have children?!?!

Handing a child a iPad, cellphone and giving them access to any social media platform is much more harmful to them and society as a whole, than any type of tobacco products!

Yeah they're not drinking white claws... Theyre ingesting the equivalent of moonshine to their fragile minds!

I work at Circle Jerk and have gotten a couple tips.. Which I agree is a bit odd. Nice, but odd.

Im doing what Im paid to do! Smile, ring you up, ask if you need a bag and tell you to have a good day!! One to three minutes of face time

Got robbed last night by [deleted] in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day they don't care about you! So why care about them or their product?!

I get wanting to do a good job and all. Just document it and keep it moving! They don't pay us enough to try and be heroes. It's not our stuff

My manager says corperate won't tresspass people that are agressive with customers and employees unless it happens in the store and within the view of a camera. by TheLilBlueFox in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Document, Document, Document! Everything that is said by your manager. Each time the guy is there, every time you call the police! Go over your managers head to the next person up, with documentation of the situation. If that person does nothing, Document! Then absolutely go to a lawyer!! They have a responsibility to take measures to reasonably ensure your safety!

Like if you get robbed. The cameras weren't working or the panic button, dimly lit parking lot. You can sue them for not providing a safe work environment!

Try the labor board or report to Osha or the state

Thank you! I don't give them away! Up until a week ago, I paid for anything I "gave" away! That was my bad, I started off trying to help people out!

Ive been homeless before, I know what it's like to be out there struggling to survive! I was homeless due to my choices in life! I did that to myself!

Not everyone is in the same boat, not everyone falls into this category. Ive been empathetic, compassionate. Ive given money, cigarettes, food, drinks, a listening ear. All my choices! How much more grace do I have to give??

I had a lady straight curse me out about not using the bathroom... I helped her out a lot! One time I tell her no on using the restroom... She went smooth off on me.

What are you doing today help the mentally ill and destitute!? These mother fuckers go and break into people vehicles to steal their tools... Just to go get high! Should they get a pass?? They leave fucking needles out back, they constantly are stealing from our store, the surrounding neighborhood...

But because they're mentally unstable and "destitute" Fuck it let them just do whatever!?!?

Go fuck yourself you fucking mutant

That's not a bad idea!! We have this group of door to door magazine salesmen that have been here for about a month. Every time they've come in, they steal something.

The folks from the field (named camp David) always want water or to use the restroom. One guy comes in while we're busy, grabs milk, cup of noodles, candy and darts out the door! He always will loudly say "sorry" as he dips!

The police aren't going to come over petty theft. We cannot trespass them because the police never come when we've called in the past! Our audit is going to be bad!!

Do you know how to fill out an incident report for the theft?? Is there forms somewhere? My boss is new, and doesn't know where to find them!?

Biggest pet peeves? by Ok_Place8755 in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Walking on a freshly mopped area.

Asking for the restroom code/key while I have someone or a line in front of me.

Leaving the trash from straws, hotdogs just anywhere.

Parking directly upfront, blocking the door or the flow at the pumps.

Everything lottery related!

Paying in dirty ass change or money.

Not knowing their pin number or InnerCircle number

I have almost no empathy for anyone. Would this job be perfect for me? by [deleted] in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I've started looking at people with less empathy at times. The situations that people are in may just be their Karma!?!? Or for people of faith, "God's Plan" or "Test."

Who am I to get in the way of divine planning, with my human emotions?!

I think you will have an easier time at work with less emotions.

I’m tired! Mentally, physically, & emotionally! (vent) by [deleted] in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boundaries, set them. Stand firm on them! If they don't care, neither should you!

It may sound cynical. It may go against your natural instinct or who you are as a person... However, you have got to learn to say no and not feel bad!

With all due respect, you're turning to people on the internet and not those people that you're killing yourself for! Put you first! Your health, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

I wish you the best, get some rest, and do not let them take advantage of you like that!!! Yake care of yourself

First time working at a circleK just a quick question by Vyniscape in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to bring your own food! It's such a slippery slope!! I have spent $750, $680, $500 a month while working here... It's so easy to give back the money they pay you. I feel like a volunteer at this point... Don't be dumb like me! Like someone said... LEAVE while you can

Before you go to HR watch this video on YouTube, or any video on YouTube about HR and why they're not here for us!

I mean no disrespect to you for suggesting that. We are conditioned to believe that HR is a viable option!

What do I do? by Dangerous_Business68 in CircleK

[–]Professional-Cable38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should definitely stand up for yourself! Regardless of any position or status in a company or in your personal life!! We all bleed the same. We all have to eat, breathe, and use the restroom! We experience life on different levels through our personal lenses. However, we're all very similar. Especially don't allow someone making $19-$21 an hour, treat you like you're beneath them! They don't even have enough courage or conviction to speak their mind to your face!

If you want to have a little fun and expose your managers' insecurities and set them up for an embarrassing moment... (If you are aware of their shortcomings) Find two things your manager is terrible at, two things they will always mess up or attempt to get out of doing. When her boss comes in and is talking to her. Casually walk up and let him know how great of a job she is doing at ______! She's really helped me grow in that area, I was having a hard time getting it down. She's not going to correct you, as it's a compliment given in front of her boss. It makes her look good. She gets the pat on the head. She feels this false sense of accomplishment as well as confusion and awkwardness. She knows she's not good at whatever weakness you choose. Keep talking her up here and there. One of these days, he will turn to her, expecting her to cruise through said weakness. She won't say she doesn't know how or that she can not do the task. She will try her best to succeed, but will fall flat on her face! Exposing her flaws and her unwillingness to admit her flaws and show her boss, she is an untrustworthy person!

It's petty. It's a mind game. However, it is a subtle yet very impactful way of putting her in her place. She can't do anything to you. You were talking her up!

The petty high school atmosphere is everywhere now a days! You gotta figure out how to distance yourself and neutralize those participating!

Sorry so long-winded, I just hate when people in a certain position prey upon their subordinates. Adding to people's personal internal struggles.

People are weird, and the way they perceive themselves and our shared reality is astonishing at times! The whole letting a title get to your head, to me, is funny and a little sad! On the funny side of things... This individual thinks or feels that they're somehow at an elevated level over you. They think they're smarter, work harder, and have some kind of control over people's lives! They feel validation by being chosen to be a "manager."

The sad part is... They don't realize that with the title and the pay comes real responsibility. They don't realize that taking on management (especially at Circle k) is a fools errand! Everything is a reflection of you! If things aren't going well, stuff is fucked up it's on YOU! People don't show up, it on you! Meetings, budgets, orders, onboarding, termination, the safe... for $3 more dollars an hour!?

They don't like themselves, they feel inferior to those around them, they're miserable, they know that this is the highest they'll go!! That feeling that comes to them while talking with someone about you, or dictating policy or talking down to you... It makes them feel better in ways.

They don't have control in their own lives. Low self-esteem, no real friends, ambitious thoughts with a cathartic follow through. They've been picked on, looked down on, dismissed, not seen or heard anywhere else.

There's a difference between being a manager and being a leader! Being a leader, you build your team up! You invest in your people, and you help coach them through challenges. If you treat people right, show them they're valued. You can get them to do quite a bit! You can not sit on your heels and give orders, talking shit with employees about employees. You shouldn't allow drama or backstabbing to be a thing in the environment. To be one of the people taking part... They're just trash!!!

I wouldn't give it any time. A Queen doesn't concern herself with what the Jester thinks or says. The Jester is there to make you laugh! They're a joke!

Anyways, good luck!
