I don't know what to say I screwed up at work, I've been working long hours 12 hour shifts they are only paying me for 8 hours

And I missed something. I hate my job so much, I can't afford to quit and I feel trapped. I've been crying all morning. I haven't been able to find anything that pays a livable wage here and I've been trying but it's hard when you are working so many hours. I can't afford to live if I quit and I don't know what else to do this job is killing me emotionally and physically. Bar none the worst job I've ever had

Everyone cocks up now and again. That’s why they put erasers on the end of pencils. Seriously though, it sounds like they don’t have any respect for you or what you’re doing. Do you have a trade Union?

@Mrjingleswilly no I wish I did. They'd can us immediately if we ever tried. Corporate America

@SW-User That sucks. So you’re stuck with managers being a pain in the arse?

SW-User

@Mrjingleswilly I'm stuck with being taken advantage of and overworked with a reduced salary. My only option would be to sue them or file a formal complaint but I don't think it would really make a difference

@SW-User Canada is a much more worker friendly country. I can't believe what some Americans say about their employers.
