What to do about my job?

[cabanafrau]

The Op lost his family in a tragic fire, some people are never able to recover from such things so to me this is a success. I imagine the entire holiday season is brutal for this person so I understand being more easily upset. Just my opinion but it seems a pile on when he is struggling is a bit rough. Done is done.

That's absolutely traumatic. Unfortunately not everyone is aware of this, at least I wasn't.

My comments were not any way an attempt to pile on, rather to offer a possible explanation for the current situation which OP seemed to be confused by. If in fact the outburst has resulted in OP's hours being cut it's better to understand in order to decide how to address the situation, because the bottom line is OP needs to get the situation sorted out.

What is to be done? Maybe be softer

Its good he hears some truth since he has no parents to tell him but sometimes a carrot instead of a stick is more helpful

I am very sorry to hear about the personal loss(es). Since I didn't read or hear about them via other postings, I just proceeded with my input(s).

All that anyone here can answer was covered pretty early on in the thread - OP needs to ask his manager about why his hours were cut and why he's not been given cashier hours. Outside of that, I don't know that there's any other advice that we can give, aside looking for another job.

most of us don't follow or look up the post history of individuals here. I had no idea about the OP losing his family. And it's probably been really hard for the OP to deal with that.

However, my advice/feedback still stands. If the whole dealing with his/her family tragedy is affecting his/her work performance, that would be something that the OP could choose to share w/his/her supervisor at work...and maybe that supervisor would give him/her a pass that one time. If that was impacting the OP's state of mind when the yogurt blow up happened, then the time to address it with one's supervisor would have been shortly after it occurred.

At this point, too much time has passed and that opportunity is gone.

Meanwhile, the OP could also hedge his/her bets and also start applying to additional jobs at other places of employment. Get some additional interview practice and all that, and who knows...something better might just come along.
