People who bitch and whine about minor changes to work, constantly quote "it's not in my contract" or "it's not my job" , then, later on, have the nerve to complain when they have made no progress up the chain. (not directing at anyone in particular, although above comments did make me think about this)

You know what!? be happy that you have income coming in, shut the fuck up and do your job. If you don't like it, leave, there are plenty of people who there who will do the work.
I have had a few like this come through my work lately, give me grief over something trivial. I'd rather recommend a pay rise for someone who is happy to help.

Good for you, would you like an award? Perhaps a hippy shirt that says "I am an economic & environmental god"

Yeah, I know how ya feel mate, someone vandalised my house when it was being built. Hopefully that sodomising with a wire brush happens soon.

And actually I'd whinge because there is no need whatsoever to be open until 5.30. After 4pm we have one phone call at most. With 5 of us sitting there playing spider solitaire. Waste of time. It's like working Saturdays. I've never worked a Saturday where we've made enough profit to pay my wages for the day. I don't see the point?
Because there is value that is not measurable in dollars by being open for some customers on a weekend?

Same as being open a little later.

Its been a long time since I was in retail but it astounds me how poor service is getting these days. I know people arnt on 150k like their mining friends are, but at least have the decency to approach the job with a little respect.

PS your employeer is a stupid fuck for not having a clause in their to allow changes in work times. They probably do, but as so many do, they see only what they want to see.

Totally agree with this.
Seen a lot of my friends recently complaining about the smallest of things like starting 30 minutes earlier or 30 minutes later.

When I tell them that I work a minimum of 8 hours each day at work, spend 2 hours travelling to and from work and then most nights do an extra couple of hours of reading or planning from home on my own time they tend to shut up.
Often take work home on the weekends (as much as it pisses off the misses) to make sure that the majority of my work is completed and issued prior to agreed/due dates.

My contract states no overtime pay is allowable, yet I don't piss up the wall complaining that I'm being robbed blind.
Sometimes you just need to get the job done otherwise if you don't like it, dust up the CV and start shopping around.

P.S, I'm not taking a stab at you RamWRC, just venting

So true. Seriously bad. As you said, they aren't on $150k like their mates. Well they can get an education/work ethic and work towards those goals.

But people seem to think they are entitled to everything without actually earning a damn thing.

You are either lazy or stupid if you are stuck in a job you don't like. There are options, and if all you come up with is excuses as to why you are stuck where you are, well reality check - it is you that is holding yourself back, take responsibility for yourself, it is no one elses fault.

What ever you are doing, if you have a miserable attitude, you'll have a miserable life.

I was on 31k as a manager in a retail chain. Would have to work extra hours, come in early, leave late, go to events outside of work time on my own pocket, get treated like shit by people all day.

I still smiled, and worked my ass off. I was one of the top salesman in the state despite being in the smallest store. Would piss in 1/2 every week on the extra warranty sales.

I didnt like it though, so I did something about it.

Why should you care? You get paid either way so quit fucking whinging about it & either quit or shut up. Go tell you're boss you aren't doing the extra time & I'm sure he will tell you where to stick it.

I work 10-11 hours most days & the majority of either Saturday or Sunday. Hear me complaining?

You Telling us right here for no reason the amount of hours you do Saturday or Sunday. Any real reason to tell everyone here? My Care factor on how much you work = 0. I'd take that as a complaint to be honest..

Anyway yes. If you are really sick of it, Quit the bitching & do something about it. Nut up & quit.

Find something else as there is plenty of opportunities available for those not lazy to find it.. Plain & Simple

He's not going to quit that'll mean taking affirmative action.

Just pointing out his hours aren't as bad as he is making them out to be. I'm not complaining, I love my work.
