i been having a few issues at work with my supervisor, its a long story lol
when i first started i used to stay start to finish, this was doing like 16 hours of work a day. the supervisor though never seemed to acknowledge it or care about you, was disrespectful and took it for granted. its hard physical labour too, probably illegal at super fast speeds, heavy parcels and understaffed so you was doing 3 jobs in 1 in those 16 hours a day. working all day through into night time then next morning and not even getting paid night rates. and when they paid you they missed nearly all of your overtime off and didnt pay you right then when you confront them about the massive £800 "adjustement" deductions on your pay they make silly excuse saying its not them and you probably went up a tax band when they dont even pay you enough to go up a tax band, then play stupid about it and assume your stupid too (i bet you can guess my employer is by that as they notoriously told their couriers to pretend to be stupid when questioned by customers)
anyway i cracked one time after a entire week of 16 hours and being on the hard physical trailer alone at the end of a fast speed conveyor belt tossing millions of parcels a second that came at me from the belt with no time to stop or rest in the 16 hours, i tried to go home then i got shouted at in my face and abused and called pathetic for wanting to go home to have a bit of sleep! lol
so that was that, i stopped overtime and swore to always go after my 8 hours, which they didnt like, so i wrote a letter to withdraw my 48 hour opt out and mentioned their poor attitude and disrespect, which i think got them done a bit and forced to make changes and allow people to go after 8 hours. they lost most of their origional team anyway at that time and had to recruit from scratch again.
they recruited more and i stayed on, no one did over 8 hours after that, things seemed fine but i always felt the supervisor hated me for the letter i wrote. he constantly skipped me for promotion and promoted new staff above me. im clearly not advancing in this company.
i have excelled though, i carried the company and do most of the work myself, i do impressive things, crazy things that really show off the results of my previous years of constant fitness and martial arts training, i clearly showed im above anyone at physical labour especially pound for pound given im likely a small weak looking guy if they were to judge but yet pull of extraordinary things physically and do things no one else can. easily worth 10 workers at once. i never get the respect for that or recognition and get treated as if im nothing and a *** worker. my process leads notice this now especially as i was here way before them and know more, they recognise this bad treatment of me now.
we got enough good workers now and a fully staffed out shift again. and now i guess my supervisor probably thinks he no longer needs me, so he keeps pulling stuff like changing my hours to try force me to quit, push my start time as late as possible, make it impossible to complete my contractual times even and then blame me for it and claim im breaking the contract by not doing my times. he dragged me in a 2 hour written interview accusing me of all sorts but it was dominated by him whining about me going after my 8 hours when he instead wants me to stay as long as possible, like i originally did. i think he thinks if he gets rid of me that he can then go back to forcing everyone else to do crazy start to finish overtime and no one will say anything.
anyway i reported him, his boss seemed ok and said he will force him to apologise for his language and attitude, but yet claimed my accusations of him trying to get rid of me or make me quit and saying its bullying was "just my opinion" but will make some internal changes, i have yet to receive a apology and yet to see any changes. he adjourned the meeting as soon as i tried pointing out nepotism in the depot as clearly he is likely part of that nepotism problem too and is clearly protecting this guy and his weird girlfriend who is another big issue that came along in there somewhere too that i didnt mention lol (told you it would be long if im missing out that massive issue too)
anyway, the supervisor today has again changed my times forward to try mess with me again, so my start times are now 4pm despite being a day shift and i will be working all through the night and into next morning on my basic 8 hours if my shift can make that up from my start time. i told him i cant work past 11.30 as i have sleep problems and cant sleep past 7am, he said he doesnt care and i have to prove i get up at 7am, but still wont care... claimed also to have picked me totally at random for the 4pm start and put everyones name in a hat for the time change, but everyone knew it would be me picked for it, hes clearly targeting me all the time.
its annoying because im a really good worker, i can do things no one else can, throwing both hand rapid speed thousands of parcels a second while still filling the trailer top to bottom, while you get another trailer slower with 2 people on and they still leave massive gaps. its kinda annoying as im clearly excelling at work beyond anyone can dream of, and yet im getting punished, while people who do less and are slow and dont do as well as me are getting rewarded and praised all the time. drives me mad. but with everything i wrote its very clear the supervisor does it on purpose and hates me. anywhere else would have valued me and probably promoted me 4 times over with what i can do and how well i do it. this place hates me and treats me like trash and yet without me nothing gets done around there. i should probably leave, but i kinda want to fight for my job and change it, maybe get rid of the supervisor and see the end of him. its him that must go, not me.
