Loving my new job...

Thu Oct 7, 2010 2:46:43 AM #135598 Perm Link

I'm loving my new job as a meat clerk at the local Real Canadian Superstore. I really can't dislike or hate it, as it's perfect IMHO:

I work from 7 to 12 noon 5 days a week, and have my afternoons and evenings off to do what I like. Not to mention I get paid $12.40/hr when I work Sundays (I've done 2 straight Sundays, so I'm bound to have a nice check!), and $11.40/hr the rest of the week. Getting paid to take my coffee break is a nice change back as well - I hated when I lost paid breaks back at McDonald's - I cannot say how many hours I lost each week to my breaks, but it was a lot! Plus the guaranteed hours cause of the union doesn't hurt either! Plus, I only have to please 4 people there, and not 9 or 10 like I had to at McDonald's! You would think I would have spotted any negative aspects of the job by now, but I have not.

Just thought I would let you all know how it's going so far!

I fold for team 52482. Do you fold@home?

How much are union dues?

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

$25 Initiation fee the first two paychecks and every check $19.50 + .17/hour worked. Pretty decent IMHO. I prefer the protection of a union to not being in one like I was at McDonald's.

So how much are you actually making per hour?
