Idk where else to put this because I'm at wit's end with this job, I genuinely can't take it anymore.
I live in northeast texas, for reference, at the only 24hour Walgreens in town, the other two closing at 10pm. I've been here four years. In that time, I've been:
— Called an "it" behind my back by an ESM to another shift lead, was consistently taken off the schedule by her despite being a highly competent and charismatic worker, only for HR to turn a blind eye and have her promoted to GM at a separate store. No one was penalized, and I was consistently blown off by HR. This lasted for two years.
— Scheduled against my availability on holidays despite the fact that we had sign-up sheets, and threatened with termination if I didn't work those days even though they knew I would have no car and had already been working 8 days straight
— screwed out of my $16 an hour promotion because the following ESM who replaced Bigot ESM decided not to communicate with my shift leads, and rated me as 2s all down the assessment list. He had apparently told another manager (his sister in law btw, tell me how THAT isn't messed up) that he had "issues" with me despite the fact we'd met maybe 5 times and worked a single shift together, which went smoothly and without a hitch.
— CONSISTENTLY dehumanized by customers, despite how hard I try, despite how nice I am, despite the effort I put forth to make sure customers feel heard, only to NEVER receive that same level of empathy.
Today was one of my many breaking points with this job after getting screamed at for apparently "ruining" a set of cards (they were slightly curved from the heat and rotators in the fuji film printer). I've been crying my entire break. I've used ALL of my paychecks the last three months for rent, to an apartment in whats affectionately referred to as "concrete jungle", while our water has been out for three days (all the days I was scheduled to work). Nothing is hiring. I couldn't even get a job at McDonald's. Everywhere is "hiring" but when I apply, suddenly the positions are all unavailable... I have no car, no college degree, I can't even afford to go to mortuary school, which was my dream. I don't know what to do anymore. All I want is to be worth something to society, but it feels like society just doesn't want me.
If I quit, my partner and I are homeless. But if I stay, I don't know how much longer I'll be alive.
If anyone, ANYONE at all has advice beyond "just transfer" or "just quit" or "lawyer up" please, I'm begging, tell me. I can't take this anymore.
