You say in your gay thread you don't have a thing against gays and in this thread you say you stand around and make gay jokes... You, my friend, are the joke.

Calling him a joke is being too nice.

Unfortunately, my hourly rate is down to less than minimum wage.
I need some advice....... | Well you can send City Driver a pm....

Rep Power: 2490 | Re: i want to file a grievance this is ridiculous On a serious note (if there is such a thing  )
I was granted time to add up my hours and compare with OR/paycheck, and also 2 minutes to walk to time clock to punchout.
It seems a supervisor was shorting my pay (this is just one example of how).
I would work until for ex: 5pm. But we work in a large hub. I would punch on the clock at 5:02 or 5:03 because of time it took to drop off equipment and walk to clock which was located on the opposite side of the buiding and center office. The supervisor always took out those 2-3 minutes out of my punch. Obviously I was irate and felt cheated as I was not stealing time to begin with, it was time worked IMO. |
