Fresh cut employee
Hi I just started fresh cut about 3 months ago now, it’s fun cool just staying in the back making fruit bowls and such but lately it’s been sucky.
when I got hired it was me and two other dudes I told them I can work anytime so my schedule is usually 5am-1:30 everyday and the other dude says he could start anytime too but the third one can’t work weekends only can work one day in the morning and every shift he can’t come in till 10:30.
But long story short the dude who said can work anytime quit not long ago they told me after the summer is over I could go to the Doug department but they asked if I wanted to be permanent back there I said yes but lately I’ve started to regret it.
So we do have a lead she’s nice but she can only work three days out the week so I cover her days over and work one day with her but after I got a month and a half training they started leaving me back there packaging doing the best I can to do the fruit list with the with the limited training I got.
But now they started cutting hours so now my schedule is 5am-12 , ever since that one dude quit I’ve been working by myself till the dude who can’t come in till 10:30 gets there I can’t finish the list I feel like I’m too slow to keep up my lead says you have to finish it no matter what but I’ve been trying my best.
My produce manger just tells me just do what you can but the store director gives my lead pretty much shit abt how her team can’t get it done he came in one day while I was with the lead and scolded her abt it she told him abt the hours cut and that she’s work by herself when she’s scheduled( bc they know just her she can finish the list). she tells me that’s what she gets told every time we don’t finish the list I feel bad that I cant finish the list.
But it’s hard coming in the morning doing the Vision Pro and setting up the room, cutting wedges and quarters of water melon on display while being by-myself feels like I get nothing done the wall is mostly empty they got in a new girl that’s been in the Safeway company for 13 years or so she’s sweet she tells me not too stress too abt it. She works partime she usually come in at 7 but she doesn’t know too much abt the department she use to do the vegetable a lot , not really the fruit so ive been training her best I can.
Which makes me feel a little better but I feel like i get looks from the hire ups from not getting stuff done enough in time before I leave for the day it’s just been stressing me out I just got told by my produce manger we getting a new guy that’s been in the military that ig the store director told my manger that “this dude seems like he can get things done” idk if that indicated that I don’t get stuff done?
I don’t know every since he said that it’s been weighing on my mind if I’m getting replaced? my produce manager said he’s gonna get training somewhere else before he gets put in fresh cut department , I don’t know what to think of the situation I like the job works out in my personal life with the morning scheduling.
At this point I feel like I should get another job but I don’t want too:(
