sorry just Venting
anyone else feel like there job is to be the _____ at work? i mean my bosses forget to do ____ and tell me ____, and when ____ hits the fan the blames is always laid directly upon me. so i am the reason the customer is unhappy.. yet my customers tell me they wouldnt buy from us if i werent here and swear by me.. time and time again, the blame is laid upon me.. and after a while it just sucks life right out of me, makes me over stressed and just hate everything.. im also ____ing ____ed of about or lunch situation, if i really wanted to i could screw my boss over bad.. he doesnt let us take breaks for lunch or even 15 minute, why we dont complain is he buys his lunch.. but since im always the _____ i dont get to eat my lunch till 3 to 4 or sometimes even 5 hours after i get it.. so anything that i eat that has grease in it, its already become solid.. everyone else here isnt disturbed until they are done.. im ____ing fed up, and really feel like i need to go ____ing hostile here..
SORRY VENTING, i cant vent on anyone else. cause im not a douche, i do my job and i keep my mouth shut..

Its Cali State law I thought if you work an 8-hour shift you are BY law to take a 10min. break every 2-hrs and take a lunch before 5-hours.
That sucks....I have had jobs like that!.....My current job Sucks-A$$!!!

^ very true California labor laws.
But also that trick that your boss is doing by "buying you lunch" Is actually a trick many corporate companies use to increases work performance and time efficiency
What they do is they say they "buy you lunch" But in turn you will still be at your work station, "waiting" for your lunch. Which in turn if the boss didnt pay for your lunch and you left, he would lose the whole "hour" of lunch they are required to give. So instead the guy increases efficiency by getting u a 4 dollar lunch, and having it brought to you, so that in reality, you don't eat till you complete what you are doing at the current moment. And also while you are eating it probly only will take 15 mins max to consume your lunch. So your boss is getting more work out of your for probly less than what he pays for you an hour.
Unless that guy is willing to buy you lunch and pay you for the hour also. that wuold be a plus.
But ____ that, if i had a choice i would tell him or ask him when lunch time comes around to goto a place where u can only eat it there Or if you have the guts i guess you could just pull his card im sure your an asset to your company.
Good Luck!
Sorry if its a little rambled, im still hung over from last night and its 6 pm ! Woo hoo time to get off!!!

I've worked at the same dealership for going on 3 years. For the first 2 I was in sales. My customers loved me, I always had a CSI (customer satisfaction index) score of at LEAST a 98 the whole time. The hours and inconsistant pay were really stressing me out so when I heard of an opening in the accounting office I jumped all over it. Well, one of the girls that had been here for 8 years transfered to a different dealership (same family) because the office manager is a coocoo bird, then the girl I replaced had been here for 10 and quit for the same reason, THEN another girl that had been here for 4 years quit... same reason... and last week we lost another girl that had been here for 8 years... I have been talked down to, treated like an idiot, I've had papers just tossed at me and I've been ready to walk quite a few time. I actually had to call for help and I got it. A lady from our home office came in and retrained her on how to do things and spent time with each of us so we know what's going on... and an amazing thing happened! The office manager stopped getting stressed out, she knows what she's doing and for the first time in YEARS everyone is getting along. I know that you said that your boss is also the owner. You also said that you have been there for 3 years. Think about all of that. Your boss is probably really stressed out, has a ton weighing on his shoulders. Can you even imagine how hard it must be to own a business? I can't. He's probably just freaking out. Maybe his costs are exceeding his profits. Maybe he needs to hire a few more people because he's understaffed but he's affraid that if he does he's going to screw up the balance he's got financially. If the man has been cool for the past three years and is all the sudden a big bouquet of Summer's Eve, maybe he's having a hard time. I wouldn't just quit my job because someone is freaking out. I always say that its better to go with the devil you know than the devil you don't.
oh, and for the record... I haven't taken a lunch break in the 3 months that I've been back in accounting. And yes. Sometimes I get fed.

I'd be P.O'd. I had a boss once that was a total jerk. My at time in-laws sent tickets for everyone to fly to GA to visit for Christmas. I told him that I had surprise tickets and I had to leave. He told me that if I went that I wouldn't have a job when I came back. I told him that I was going and he yelled at me and told me "This is the life you've chosen for yoursel." HORSE PUCKY! I went. and you know what? When I got back, I still had a job... and in about 3 months I got promoted...
Hope you feel better so you can enjoy your weekend!
