I’ve posted here about my job b/4. Thought Id’ do it again.
-I’m 21. Since I was 16 I’ve worked at a restaurant franchise. The local branch of 10 is owned and operated by my father. At the beginning of this summer I recently asked for and received a transfer to another location. I’ve worked there during the summer and I have to say, that while I enjoy and like most of the staff very much (unlike the last store, which is why I left). I still feel the double standard pinching me. My general manager said recently, I work for Ivan. Although out of earshot I got the gist of the message. It is the GMs’ job to make sure I’m happy. I can’t stand that.
Recently a former colleague and friend, a kind middle aged woman, has been promoted to the position of shift supervisor. This ranks as one level over the general staff and one below that of a general/assistant manager
Previously, when I had arrived late, which was a rare occurrence, nothing would happen. Now She has written me up for it TWICE!!. Another write up, I’m told, and I’ll be terminated.
While this doesn’t bother me; I’m somewhat unaccustomed to this form of discipline. I’m actually afraid; and perhaps in paranoia; I’m beginning to believe that all of my supervisors pretend to be nice to me in order to not ruffle the feathers of my somewhat authoritarian father.
After 5 years, a long and illustrious carrear; I’m beggining to consider leaving completely. My reputation has been scarred and I wonder if I really don’t understand what it is to do a good job at work. After all, I’ve been supervised with minimal supervison given my special place within the restraunt.
These are things I’ll need to have an actuall life after college. I’m considering going to law school after this and how the heck am I supposed to monitor my preformance is no one at work is giving me a completely honest review. I’m beggining to question the entire experiance, all five years of it. I’m beggining to wonder if it was all for nothing if I havn’t learned anything.

Melbourne, Aug 11 (ANI): Parents are fuming over a new People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) campaign targeting McDonalds.
Parents say that the animal rights group’s ‘McCruelty Campaign’ is unfairly targeting their kids at restaurants across America with ‘Unhappy Meals’ featuring a knife-wielding Ronald McDonald and bloody rubber chickens
According to Fox News, parents say that they don’t want their kids
exposed to any throat-slitting chickens or pictures of slaughtered poultry. I don’t want my son to be around something like this. This is not fair for a child, News.com.au quoted Stephaine Gipson as saying.
Michelle Natale said: I think it’s unhappy that they target children.
However, PETA activists claim that children are jaded enough by television and video games to handle the carnographic images, and intend to continue their campaign pressuring McDonald’s to use more humane means of killing chickens. I think children and adults deserve to be told the truth - and that’s that behind Ronald McDonald’s smile is cruelty to animals, PETA spokeswoman Lindsay Rajt said.
Rajt said most parents are usually troubled by what PETA calls McDonald’s cruel treatment of chickens, and said that kids who naturally empathise with animals enjoy PETA’s presence outside the Golden Arches. Kids are usually very excited to see the free T-shirts and they like our person in the chicken costume, Rajt said.
A spokesman for McDonald defended the franchise, insisting it supports the use of a stunning technique that numbs its chickens before they are slaughtered. McDonald’s works with leading independent animal welfare experts and makes decisions based upon science to promote continuous improvement in animal welfare as part of our broader sustainable supply chain initiatives, said Bob Langert, McDonald’s vice president of corporate social responsibility.
