I Have a Job

I am permanent part time, I earn $2 above minimum wage. I am a cleaner at a supermarket, shit pay and today I had to clean it all by myself. It was surprisingly fun, i had to use the gas (not fuel) powered buffer. first time using it and my god it was loud but i had some ear plugs, which helped a little bit. I feel proud of myself, I never thought I would use it, i always thought it was a scary piece of machinery.

Keep up the good work! The best way to increase your pay is to do what they ask you and more. The best way to have a successful career is to be able to do anything they ask you and then you get to name your price.

Btw.. gas ( probably propane ) is a fuel. Figured it wouldn't have been gasoline in the floor machine.

yeah propane, I just wanted to clear that up, as im sure there are many north americans reading this. I didn't want to confuse anyone by thinking its the same stuff that they put in cars.

So are you on night crew(porter) or one of the day staffers. Get some head phones/ Some music to listen to. So you don't have to hear the loud musix over head.

I clean mornings, while there are staff packing shelves etc. I usually only clean the toilets, staff rooms and mop the floors and there's another person using the machinery. Just I did it yesterday coz they were sick. and the supermarket have their own radio station and they have played the same songs for two months straight now.
