No complaints about the last 16 years with this company execpt that the owners decided it was time to retire and put me our of a job.
If they would have lasted anothr 3 years I would have went with them.

i work in the receiving department of a big box home improvement retailer. in receiving, we get a set schedule, which pisses off the rest of the store. so they use my department as a dumping ground, which i and my 3 coworkers get to clean up 5 days a week.

we are also monitored on camera, and if two or more are in the receiving office at one time for more than a minute, we can expect a phone call from upper management asking if we need something to do, because they can find something for us...

(removed for job security)

but at least i can look forward to a 2.5% pay increase every year.

My job is with the Government and the politics piss me off more and more each year. The wastefull spending, the "good ol boy" system of promotions and contract awards etc. I do make good money though and I only need to make it 5 more years and I can leave with my meager pension and go do something else - non government.
