Bad managers
I am an employee at Publix Supermarket and I use to love my job. I transferred to store number 260, and that was the biggest mistake of my life. Every since the first day I started working at this store my life has been a living hell. I've had alot of jobs, and I liked them all. Now that I have been working at this store it has opened my eyes to how nasty people can be when given a little authority. The managers at this store must have been trained by other ignorant people. These people don't know the meaning of respect. They allow the employees to disrespect each other and allow the customers to disrespect the employees. There are very few of us who work at this store that still remain humble and respectable to each other and the customers, which is very hard when everyday your patience is being tried. Now it's time to give examples: one of my co-workers went into the kitchen to get something that the customer had asked for, obviously he felt like she was taking too long so he took it upon himself to walk behind the counter and into the kitchen to get her. He then said "Get your ass out here now, and slice my meat", the managers did nothing he still shops at this store. We also had a lady who was upset b/c we didn't have the meat she wanted. I slice-showed-and offered her a piece of a item that was similar to what she asked for. She agreed to take it, but when she saw the price which was only a few cents difference from the price of the meat she previously asked for she got angry and went on to say "All black people are good for nothing". I told the store manager b/c the deli manager wasn't there, he grabbed the meat off the counter and went to the front door as the lady was walking out and gave her the meat for free. In other words these managers reward the customers when they disrespect us. At one point i was trying to get into another department and i was told that they didn't need help in any other departments they had too much help, then all of a sudden you see new people being hired what is that about? I can on and on but why when it makes me angry to have to even have bring it this far, but if this is what it takes to justify the situations that takes place at this store then so be it.
