I quit my job.

[Empiren]

So today I quit my job.
(worked at dominos as a driver)
The manager was telling us how he told customers that we were "lazy" or didn't "hurry/drive fast enough" if their order was late.(30+minutes).

I asked him if he told this to people in the past, or if he was talking about this as a sort of threat to me. He said he told people in the past.

Then I asked if he did it to my specific delivery, or to just anybody without even checking the driver. He said he didn't look.
--------------
So I put in my two weeks, he "accepted" it and said don't come back to work.


Now I'm a good employee, I'm probably the only one who can be relied upon. I do my job, do more than my share of assigned duties every night, and I'm nice to everyone.
This is a summary of the other employees:

Manager(Pothead)
Manager(has family and is young enough to be at another job)
Manager(kid who's in HS, senior, will be gone by summer).
Driver(Pothead, older male who has made more than a couple wrong decisions in life.)
Driver(has family and transferring over to other job)
Driver(normal).
------------------

Best part: He's telling my friend to come into work to work for him tomorrow opening-shift. She asked him why didn't you just have (me) work the two weeks? Why does she have to come into work early just because (the manager) wanted to be a dick?

And everyone is calling the store asking why I got fired.(as I was super fucking nice).
---------------------------------------------
I'm glad I got out of there since I need a new job(a career), and the potheads there caused me way too much stress.

Anyway, that was my day and I felt I should "blog" about it to relieve some stress.



So that was just about it, I put in my two weeks, got out, and here I am.


Note: I have nothing against smoking pot, being a pothead is completely different from smoking in a recreational manner. It would be similar to people who drink and alcoholics.


-This is Empire btw.

This is a good story.

Jk, who gives a fuck anyways.

Good work, Dominos is a shit place to work, even in Australia. Most of the district managers are fuckwits as well.

It just doesn't pay enough. I intend to go into the "IT" field soon with my cisco certifications.

As for the district manager(owner) being a fuckwit, yes, he is of course some idiot with "daddy's money" who doesn't really care what he makes on the place as long as it is a profit.

I heard some guy is moving in on australia to make domino's better, he had some success in south america i think.

Is this going to be shared all over the internet so people quit their jobs at dominos and then dominoes become bankrupt or some shit?

Illerminati, OP has his own pizza shop and wants world pizza domination.

I have no desire to become a pizza shop owner. There is a million other former domino's employees that probably have a better story as well.

[Smaug]

Good for you, I guess.

[Euphemistic]

I wouldn't wanna work at Dominos in the first place. That place sucks.

This one time, I saw a fat & tall senior kid smoking weed at the back of In-N-Out.

You worked at Domino's and that's all you got? My buddies Dominoes has the managers threatening him because they sold heroin, be grateful.

:/

I would just quit if that happened. Managers dealing heroine is way too much for any job no matter the pay/benifits.
---------------------------------------------


I only quit because outside of a shitload of other stuff, working a job thats dependent on tips and your manager does something intentionally to make you not get a tip, that is essentially stealing from me just to spite me.
-------------------

The manager then tried to cover up his tracks saying he never said that, even though the other manager was right next to him when he said it and I even directly asked him what he meant in front of the other manager and he even repeated himself for me.


Domino's is generally a shit place to work, I only stayed there because of friends. When most of them left, there was just less reasons for me to stay.

At least the customers want you.

Yup, customers fucking loved me.

[Empiren]

Also for all those who don't know:

Tip. your. driver.


Several reasons:

1. They depend on tips. Usually most pizza drivers make less than minimum on the road and make less per mile than it cost them.
2. Any order that is late is usually not the drivers fault, as they just deliver.(much like your ups guy isn't actually responsible for your delivery being late)
+ If you call and complain, domino's will give you a refund/new pizza if your complaint is valid.(well most will).
3. Be decent. A two dollar tip isn't going to break you. If you can't afford 2-3 dollars tip, don't order. No driver is going to care if you say "have a nice day" and you stiff him. In fact, that is almost more of an insult because you are fake in wishing well to their face.


4. This is kind of important, they know where you live. Not in a hostile threatening way, but really, if some psycho got super mad because his life was in shambles and you were the last straw, he has your address and access to where you live.
(You wouldn't stiff a waiter and then tell them where you live would you?)

[SMILLY]

[Aborted]
