No longer allowed to work overtime?
Firstly, I’ve read that on these posts the higher ups at Frito read these posts. if so then go F yourselves. Now that-that is out of the way I was told today that I can no longer work overtime and have to keep my hours at 40 a week and no more. About 2 weeks ago I was told I can only work 45. The first week I ended up hitting 46 the second week I did 48. I was put on routes and the time was out of my control. Do you honestly expect me to work 48 hours and say I only worked 45?! This week I guess they got annoyed with me and said now I can only do 40. They claim that business is slow and there is not enough work. They have been making my schedule incredibly light, literally giving me one thing to do a day, one store reset a day, one rack to build a day etc. I’m not going to go to work for 3 or 4 hours and then go home. That isn’t me and I was hired for full time and was specifically told in my interview I can work overtime hours and that all seems to be a sham now. I do not milk hours, after I complete whatever single meaningless task they give me for each day I either go back to stores that I know need attention and repair and replace racks, or I straighten up stuff at the warehouse, or I meet up with drivers and help them on routes. Basically anything to get me to hit 8 or 9 hours a day as I really need those full time hours as well as the overtime. They apparently think that I’m milking the clock or something because I feel like I’m being penalized here and I don’t understand it. I’ve told them to check the gps tracker on my van, look at the cam footage, I’m always working. What’s worrying me is I’ve only been here for about 3 months and they are already pulling this nonsense with me, what happens when I’m here for 3 years? Up until this point I’ve enjoyed the job but this has made me a bit sour and honestly to just not really care anymore. Has anybody else experienced this? If they really want to play these games I’ll do 10 hour days Mon thru Thursday and take off Friday and give myself a 3 day weekend. How come you didn’t finish your tasks on Friday…well I was at 40 hours already sorry. just ridiculous, lastly not to mention all of the dudes that show up at 330am and stand around and chat for 4 hours, yet I’m being singled out. bullshit. I will give it a month or 2 and then I’ll look for another job I suppose. I don’t play these games
