Contract Management

Archive for January, 2010

I am handle animals at my job. I have not been provided training on these animals at all (diets. temperament, possible diseases, etc.) They just gave me a shirt and said “let’s get started.” My questions and concerns go unanswered by management and I, in turn, cannot answer my customers’ questions. There are at least 48 cameras in the store; 2 of which are in a very small room, and 2 more in the "break room". I didn’t sign any contract to be under total surveillance. More times than not, my supervisors arrive 40 minutes late…leaving me out in the elements until they decide to show. I get minimum wage and my co-workers have a quick turnaround (fired, re-hire, replaced, walk-out, etc.). I show up early and work hard with little information or cooperation from management or staff. I am reluctant to take breaks because I am uncomfortable sitting down or eating while being watched (cameras). Do I have valid complain in any of this?

I know that the economy is still shifty. I don’t think reflects well on me to leave a job after only 3 months. And I need animal handling experience to go along with my degree. On the other hand, I am not learning anything and I may be one of 2 people that are more than mildly concerned with the animals’ welfare… (I think they quit yesterday).

Thanks for your responses ahead of time. Have a wonderful holiday.

Follow the trend…..quit………forget the 3 months on your next resume…….just a blip in your career goals………or you can start looking and a job that fits you……

Patriotism:

I have a desire to save the USA from Total Ruin by corrupt and incompetent Bureaucrats and Politicians.

Would all of you who read this vote for a mature, College educated Accountant with 30+ Years of Managing Finance and Human resource departments of corporations in Arkansas and Oklahoma. A Divorced man after 29+ Years of marriage to the same woman. His wife took up with a drug dealer and committed adultery for several years with his knowledge because He was working a full time job as Director of Administrative Services for Not-for-Profit Corporations who successfully provided services to disabled individuals through Federal and State contracts and Grants, along with Insurance and Private Direct Payment from the Client.

I doubt that being an accountant would sway my vote as the president can not spend one thin dime. the president can only advise the congress and accept or reject the spending bill they send him.
