The restaurant thermostat read 50-51 degrees today.
The heater is either broken or has never worked in the first place. Co-workers said last year around Winter the heater didn't work either.
The front door doesn't close at all and the wind blows straight into the store all the way into the kitchen. YAY windchill!
The stupid fan is circulating the cold air around due to the thermostat only having a fan feature for on or auto, and for some reason AUTO and ON both do the same thing without stopping. No OFF function.
Manager/bosses won't fix it or even care to.
We wear sweatshirts/beanies/etc. at work all day, and today I felt like I needed a winter coat and gloves. My hands hurt especially when I had to run into the walk in fridge or freezer both at under 40 and -10 respectively for a second to grab something.
Standing next to something that we use to cook that generated heat made little difference. Eating/drinking something hot you can only do so many times a day.
Gah, what kind of cruel and unusual punishment is this. 9 or 11 hours of this crap a day, even when I never asked for this kind of schedule.
I know we're the "red headed step child" store when it comes to the amount of workers, amount of resources, and attention due to the bad area and slow business, but c'mon. Who is even going to want to come in and eat in a place that is 51 degrees, considering its just about as cold OUTSIDE!
Oh screw it, I only have one day left at this retarded place where nobody thinks for themselves, cleans up after themselves, or stands up for themselves.
And it doesn't get nearly as cold around here as it does in many other places in the world in Winter, so some people might think I'm bitching, but this is still bad a business practice and even my cheapo parents who won't turn on the heat keep the house at a steady 65 degrees.
Oh yeah, and while I'm at it, some bastard kid came in the other day- used a water cup for soda right in front of me and another worker("Water only." "It's water, brown water." (pepsi), stole money out of our tip jar when we weren't looking, left a mess with the food he did buy, and sweared at me for looking in his direction when I saw him staring into the tip jar(after he stole the money, but I didn't know it was stolen yet).
On the plus side, one co-worker thought he was James Brown and said these lyrics while spinning and dancing today:
"OWWWWW! I feel good, dunna nunna na, I feel good, I can't sing, can't sing, bump bump bump, OWWWW!" http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
That, sorta makes up for all that other crap.
