The attitude around hard work here is fucking weird.
Worked outside lawn and garden at Lowe’s this year. During the spring it’s the shittiest job in the store, even working on an asphalt crew wasn’t as hard. Worked my ass off, got the respect of my coworkers when the lazy young guys were reviled. Within 2 months they fired the lazy day guy, gave me his full time slot and sweet schedule. The day I quit the gm was waiting on me to get with him concerning a raise. Same gm started where I was 8-years previous. The assistant managers were clocking $90K and every one of them started at the bottom. My agm had only been there 6-years.
Every shit job has been like that for me. At the very least I got lateral promotions into jobs I’d rather be doing. Also there’s what I call the Hawkeye Pierce Theory of Work. Make yourself irreplaceable and you get loads of slack when you fuck up or fuck off.
