Anthony you got 5 more years until you can retire so hang in there until then. Don’t let anyone take away your livelihood. Just vent to us, then pick yourself up, go back in that job and not let them break you. Yesss take note of everything since ole dude want to be petty 😀
Usually the closer to retirement the more picky they get, they want you to quit, DON'T you will mess up your pension, benefits, keep a goin'...man up with a smile, it will drive them crazy!!!
True! I went a lifetime at different jobs with hardly a sick day and no vacation time...they ALWAYS pick on the dependable people. I'm talking working over 45 years...still going. Retirement got pushed from 55 to what? 67...like what's next...lowering us into a grave and saying ok... here's your retirement.....the excuse was people are living longer.. BS us over 55 earned retirement...kept this country going....so tragic.
@@PCHGWHS Yes so true been on my job 24 years..it's tough trying to hang on.You go in early stay late do extra things and feel like you still not doing enough.Hate they raised retirement to 67 that's awful.
This is work- a working relationship doesn't require winning someone over. This happens on every job- there's always a princess. Yes, a man can be princess too.
Be cautious about what you say. You are most likely being watched by coworkers or management and they are aware you are getting monetized and could leave when it's best for you. We ALL make mistakes, as we are humans. Keep the faith and move when it is best for you to do so. Hang in there......
You responded well. I'm a manager at a corporation and trust me, when the nitpicking starts there are definitely underlying changes and they go for the so called easy targets first rather than their bootlickers. I'm proud you stood your ground. Your lifestyle is setting you up nicely and I'm so inspired by your channel. Thanks for sharing.
😡 I got written up years and years ago I used to work at a country club, and to make a long story short it turns out that the manager wanted his nephew to have my job so he couldn’t wait to nitpick and get me out of there. Then I find out a couple years after I left the job the manager got fired for stealing-Big time Karma👍🏽
Happened to me at a job when the recession hit in 2008, cowker wanted her friend to have my job and it happened, once ur a target, there's nothing u can do or say, just prepare and move on...
Anthony , now that you know that they have something against you ( cause this was so petty) please consider staying in your vehicle a little longer . Always be ahead of the game. You have more freedom now in your vehicle which gives you more opportunity to make a job decision if they keep getting on your nerves. Always be a step ahead of them . Good job writing everything down .
I use to work at a printing place. I use to run a small press. I also use to work in the camera and stripping department and make plates. That was over 35 years ago. Now I deliver mail but I did meet the love of my life at the printing place. He was a pressmen’s helper. He passes away two years ago. Hang in there. One great thing is you have a great life style and you are not bound to a job because you don’t have a million bills to pay. This video brought back some great memories Anthony.
Condolences on your loss. It's amazing how many ex-press operators here, lol. I'm probably older than most of y'all, I'm from the antique ABDick-360 days. (If ya know, ya know.) I actually have nothing to say to you, except that I am in agreement 💯 I did want to direct my remarks to the video creator... Like most people, including myself, we don't like to take advice, especially from an old man. But I'm going to try to rephrase what others have said. Take the advice of a very old man: it's almost a guarantee that you are on the way out of the door. The nitpicking and the fake closed door meeting is just a formality and paper trail for when you are fired and try to apply for Workers Comp, or something. The person that you are supposed to be assisting has decided that they do not want to work with you. You couldn't kiss enough butt even if you wanted to. You are history and just don't know it. No one is going to change their minds. It's worst than office politics because you have not been there long enough to form strong alliances, regardless of what anybody is saying RN. When corporate or whoever, gives the green light to fire you, trust me, nobody will come to your defense. Leave ASAP on your own terms, don't allow them to back you into a corner and have to try to fight your way out. You will lose. But make your own decisions. Good luck, Friend.
Some people are so petty. People bring personal problems on the job and take out their aggression on people that have nothing to do with their situations. It's not you with the problem.
The idea of being a grown man wanting to be won over by a coworker is so strange. We don’t have to like each other, Let’s do what we have to do for our shift and go on our way.
Hey Anthony, you handled that "coaching level" with respect but that winning him over crap was too much! I am so glad that you straighten him out about that. "Old skool" kicked in ..LOL!!!
The conversation about trying to win over the Operator was the Supervisor's biggest mistake. I wonder if the Supervisor had stuck to the errors Anthony made, the conversation would have felt different. I work in HR and would never advise a supervisor to act that way or have that type of "let's keep this between us" talk with an employee. The company should be grateful to have someone on staff who ONLY makes 3 errors and kept his cool in an uncomfortable situation.
I have 10 years left to work. I get to retire at 57 and then I’ll have a state retirement of about $1800 a month. I know that I won’t be able to live in a home on that so I plan on living in my van when I retire. Your videos have been invaluable to me. Thank you so much!
I just retired at 64 and I am SO glad to be out of the rat race! I have lived in my van for almost 10 years and I love the freedom and not having to put up with landlords, idiots and utility companies.
@@Frugal_fitchic the best thing I ever did was to buy myself a small house, when the interest rates were historically low during the pandemic. While renters are dealing with increased costs of rent, my mortgage is more than affordable, and does not increase. I can afford my lifestyle even better, and I was not in a financial crunch before.
@@soulchild2003 my house is 1,128 square feet. Here's some advice for you. If I had to do it again, I would now with the wisdom I have now gained , not just focus the square footage but look at it in conjunction of the layout of the house, to see if all is a good fit for you. Turns out, I could have gone smaller. If I knew that I would have looked at houses 900 to 1000 sq.feet. I have one too many bedrooms, and one room directly behind my kitchen, that, is underutilized. I have always enjoyed looking at pics online, of houses, whether buying or not, and still do. I have noticed that houses that are smaller than my small house, have great layouts, and no wasted space by having rooms and areas, I don't need, or will be underutilized Yet they have layouts that make them feel spacious. Am pretty sure though I am going to use that extra bedroom, to run a business out of, and that will make it a business expense I can deduct from my taxes. You can turn your home into an asset. Of course I could get a roommate , can easily rent for $700 a month. Currently, I like just the way things are. Finding a roommate, would be a long term project of a minimum of 6 months to possibly longer, to make sure, have chosen the right fit, so neither one of us are mismatched, making both of us very miserable. I need to look at not only the ability to pay rent, but also personality characteristics , that are compatible with mine. What I like now about my house, is that I have a lot of options , if I choose from , if I care to use them. My modest home has jumped up, to a + $50,000 more in value. I live up to my screen name, have no debt, other than my mortgage, and my net worth has increased, which before I got more financially literate, had no idea what the significance of a net worth is meant. My credit score is excellent. There's no way, I could rent an apartment , in my area, not even a studio, for under $600 a month. So, I appreciate my tiny mortgage which I got when interest rates were historically lower , at 2.95 % . You may want to consider with 10 years left to work, to buying a small house now. Take a look around at least. I have never lived in a van, but rented a room, before getting my house. I can assure you, living in a van or renting a room comes with disadvantages. Too each their own, but you have no kitchen in a van. Anthony makes it work exceptionally well, but most people are not like Anthony. However, you will spend more money on food, because you will have no freezer or pantry space to take advantage of food prices when they go on sale. I bought a brand new freezer, from Amazon, last year, with points from my reward cards. Total costs was under $30 . My regular frozen items needed for meals go in my refrigerator freezer. Things I have bought on sale for in my freezer, which I do shop, first, before adding something to my grocery list, I already have in my freezer. In a van, you are subject to intolerable weather conditions, which lead you to spend additional money for hotel rooms when it's just too hot or the temps have dropped to freezing temperatures.. I could not live without a bathroom, where I can bathe and shower, and use the toilet. Van dwellers are depending on gym memberships. Another added expense. Recently , we have had severe thunderstorms, roll through our area. I would not want to be out in a van in that. When you buy your home, it's an asset, it grows in value, there are tax breaks , your credit score rises, your net worth increases, all things you don't get with buying a van, not to mention, you must really be careful , safety wise, where you park. If you are not ready to settle down in one place, but roam around the country, then it definitely can work, and will save you money in hotel rooms, as you go place to place, exploring around the country. Otherwise gas is $5 a gallon, another added expense, because van dwellers often have to move their vehicles , trying to find places they can safely park, and are allowed to do so. You can't leave your van parked on any street indefinitely, you will be noticed and arouse suspicion , which will bring a patrol car of two officers to your vehicle, or you may wind up with a ticket of some sort, you have to pay. Society and law will classify you as transient and homeless, with no fixed permanent address. Basic things like mail delivery , will not be yours. You will have to rent a box somewhere, for your mail to go. I would rather buy a lot or a small acreage , somewhere I would be happy to live in retirement, and make sure there's no restrictions as to what I put on my property. Also, make sure if you want utilities that the power lines are in place. Beware of your options for water. If you are okay with being off grid completely or partially, then it's great. Do your research for all the different types of affordable types of homes, you can choose to live in. Each come with pros and cons, choose the one that has the most pros, and would definitely work for your needs and preferences.
We are SOOO much alike, I DO NOT KISS ASS PERIOD!!! If I have to find another job, so be it!!! Hate to say this but it sounds like this is the beginning of the end... Also, I wanted to remind you that this lifestyle doesn't mean you have to go without, you just have to have a big enough space to have those things and that is up to interpretation, everyone has a different idea of what the right size is. I.E. you can stream live TV via HULU or whatever on any device that has internet, etc...
It's all so petty. The mistakes he listed are all minor -- happen to everyone once in awhile. I think the operator has a grudge and the supervisor knows it. Supervisor likes you and is trying to find ways to make it work. But kissing ass is not one of those ways. And the pieces of paper are stupid, too. Glad you've got choices!
Good for you…take no BS from anyone when you know you are right. That’s the start of a slippery slope..you are 1,000% correct. You are a professional who knows their job and is more than competent. Is management trying to replace you because you make more money for your position and want to hire someone with less pay? This is a tactic that upper management tends to play. I know I was in the corporate world for many years and I have seen this first hand. Document everything so you have proof of your mistakes, conversations with management and so forth. Be aware and be careful. Take care and be safe my friend.😷
Always keep a work log, it sounds like they are after something more than your lack of work quality. I worked in the union for years before I retired.👍🏾
Hold your head high! Sorry they are messing with you! I worked over 30 years in offices typing away..no major issues at all...later on I worked at Wal-Mart for 6 years..unbelievable! I was a great employee but most managers loved to crack the whip on me..apparently they hated that I was so good..some employees told me I needed thicker skin that I wore my heart on my sleeve because I cared too much! It was crazy..just crazy what I went through. I would drive home crying my eyes out because I never got appreciation from management..customers loved me but bosses were sickening..very exhausting trying to please people that don't want you to be happy...
F a 9 to 5 im thankful I ain't at work my work is my channel 🙌 channels can make 10x more then a regular job easy I never had good experience when I did work I got fired for no reason many other issues with jobs won't get into it but it was completely insane what I dealt with extremely insane if only you knew
Good job Anthony ! Stand your ground . Employers act like people must kiss the ground they walk in to keep a darn job ! Child please ! An employee should be valued for their skills and experience not to who butt they kiss. The older a person gets the least BS you will take . Try that with the newbies but no grown folks 😒 I really think it was something personal against you . People are petty 🙄
Hi Pocholo. The operator is upset because the supervisor took the roll tender away from him that he has been working with for over 10 yrs. He's taking it out on me. My supervisor told me that the first day that he and I worked together.
@@FOASQUAD Hey , well a real professional should not have any issues working with anyone . He need to get over it . Just watch yourself Bro because you can tell he is a very petty person. Keep noting everything and I hope this works out for you .
Isn’t it funny how just them implementing “coaching” vs “warning” brings out a feeling in us? You’ve been in your job for a long time and used skills to get you thru those years and “new & improved” management styles get implemented and sometimes they flop and ppl storm out and quit sometimes they motivate us to pay attention, but either way I think, as employees, we feel that stirring inside that we need to rethink our life choices (living in car vs apartment, financial goals) and causes us to overthink...that’s the worst thing we can do is overthink but I’m with you on this one! Be proud that you’ve been in your industry this long bc obviously you are doing something right! They could’ve saved some minutes by not calling you in office, they could’ve just said “hey reminder: pay attention, details matter” takes 2 seconds. 💥 ridiculous management styles and unnecessary coaching. You run a successful RUclips channel, you’re obviously self motivated and you run a business so in my opinion, you are their asset.
I was a operator and your right the operator is suppose to maintain the Forming Machine. It also was my job to load the roll and start the Machine. I never would have wrote the on my paperwork.
By the way Anthony, I was in the printing business for 25 years. I was a buyer (the client doing the press checks), but I know the environment you speak of. Good job standing your ground.
Well done. Your response was great. Once the nitpicking begins that’s not a great sign. Who is the “they” that wanted to give you a warning? I’m not trying to fear-monger. Aside from experiencing it before, I’ve worked in employment law for several years (working with attorneys that represent employers against employee lawsuits, so I do know of the internal machinations. CYA.
Anthony you said it's already hard for them to find employees, why are they being so petty? This made no sense because people waste more than 32 minutes a day on most jobs. I agree, it's a good thing this happened before you moved back into an apartment. It's good to be financially free so if and when something goes down, you can bounce and not worry. Good you took responsibility, but if they keep this up, it will be their loss. Nobody is lining up to take those jobs, they will be looking forever to replace you.
Totally understand your frustration! You took responsibility for your errors, and they still want you to "win over" someone ....wtf!? I know thats just not right!! No asskissing over here!! I'm dealing with the same bullshit at my place of work...that's exactly what it is, "Work!" I'm here to make my money. They talking about we like "family"....nope,not me honey. Because I don't conform,gossip, laugh along with the chatter, kiss ass...I stand out as the odd ball out. It's all good, I always get the last laugh. Thank you for sharing your story.these are the times, everyone going through something in the workplace.
Same here, except I now hear myself being labeled as a drug user- all because I do not fall in line with everyone else into the high school cliques. I'm pretty strong minded- and very self assured (not to be confused with conceit or vanity-its nothing to do with that) and confident in my abilities so I don't need any wing men in order to feel comfortable or accepted, because I don't need or care to be "accepted". The way I look at it is its THEIR loss truly, because I am hilarious and practically wrapped in teflon... that in and of itself is so aggravating to the ppl i work with and I guess that the type of person I am is so atypical that they had no idea what to call me so that's how I got this 'label'. Either that or they just wrote down all the options i.e 'the weirdo', 'the workplace ho', 'the class clown', 'the work mom', 'the druggie', etc on individual post it notes- threw them all in a hat and literally drew one out at random. Idk what else could've supported that claim because I'm definitely not a drug user. Thankfully, I could not care less. I try to have fun with it and say off the wall shit to them or do something I think is funny when I know I'm being watched. It works like a charm. Like someone else said, we're here for a pay check-not for being the most popular or see who can make the most friends. I left that shit in high school in 1998. Don't plan on revisiting either! Keep your eye on the prize Anthony-you'll be unstoppable! Best of luck, you're definitely not alone!
You handled that really well! I’ve been meaning to tell you that I really liked your video where you talked about what you needed from us in order for your channel to be successful. You mentioned you wanted to get to 1000 views, and what a big deal it meant if we “liked” the video, etc. I now like all of your videos as I watch them! I didn’t realize that was a big deal! Also I check to see how many views you get, and sometimes I’ll go back and watch a video a second or third time just to give you some extra views! 😉 So maybe do another status update at the end of February, so we can know how to better support you on the channel! I enjoy your videos every day!
Always DOUBLE check your work. This is why they REALLY offered you another shift the other day, Also, they wanted to give you a warning vs. a coaching to start that walk out the door. Do not let them win. I would have made him write on the coaching document the total loss of time. Regardless of age everyone in the same position should be performing with the same expectations. Age discrimination is for real. Document so that if you need to contact the EOE or CHRO.
Velvet your are so right! Ageism is real in the workplace today! I’m 59 years old and a manager in a large healthcare corporation . The director & leadership blame managers for everything that goes wrong. We are scapegoats for every damn thing! They sit their overpaid lazy a$$es working “remotely “ while we are out in the medical facilities exposed to Covid and make dumb dysfunctional decisions! Had the nerve to meet with me because the employee survey results score was not high. Most of the toxic employees who did it are gone, I was on medical leave for 3 months and the director was in charge during that time. Her lazy a$$ barely came to check on the office & staff while I was out. When I returned the employees told me it was chaotic in the office and their co-workers were doing whatever they wanted. How the hell am I the blame ??! They fired over 2,000 employees last year for not getting vaccinated, a lot of turnover since Covid started across the organization & country due to resignations, short staffed and employees burned out as a result, people lost their family members to Covid, toxicity among some of the staff ect I worked for this organization for 20 years! I started taking virtual real estate courses at a college at night. Just finished the final last week & scheduled the state real estate exam. I have been interviewing the past month for another job , possible offer soon for two jobs at different organizations! This director and AVP thinks that just because of my age I am stuck and have to kiss the a$$ to keep this job. I currently have a highly stressful job, most of the managers have left because it got worse after the onset of the pandemic! Know your worth ! If necessary start looking for another job, let them hire these young people who barely want to come to work, call out, quit because they live with their mama, are always on their cell phones and unproductive ect I can’t wait to give my resignation to get dried up lazy a$$! The next manager they hirer will be younger and they will be lucky if they stay one year there! None of the younger supervisors stay, they transfer to promotional positions. So Anthony if I was you, I would start looking for another job , don’t waste time keeping notes. The operator sounds petty & they have proof of your mistakes it’s not as though it’s something that can’t be verified. They are building up a case to terminate you, take my word I have been a manager for over 20 years. Don’t give them the satisfaction, find another job and resign in peace! 🙏🏾❤️
I was once in the same situation, I could see it coming after my first "verbal warning" which my manager put in writing and asked me to sign the form she completed. I refused to sign it because there were errors in her accounts of my mistakes. She said no problem, but it's still going into your HR file. After that, she created false accusations about my work and purposely changed my reports to make them questionable and more corrective meetings with her followed. I decided I didn't want a meeting with her and HR department. I refused to work with a toxic manager, so I went on a two-week vacation and then went in early on the day I was to return to work and slipped my resignation letter under my manager's office door and left the building. I had a phone interview with another company during my vacation, and started a new job two weeks later, which also paid more, so yeah. I refused to take her abuse. I left a toxic environment for sure!
Yes. See that . I'm happy for you...when one door closes another one opens.They think they're hurting you but really doing you a favor.They keep the workers that do bare minimal and kick the ones that go out there way in the butt... Pathetic!!!
Hey Anthony, we all are human and we all make mistakes, remember you have five years to go, hang in there. Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend. Please just watch your back and you don't need to win no one over for a job.
@@FOASQUAD Hello Anthony 👋 ☺ 👋 I'm a new subby. I, so very much enjoy your videos! You can RETIRE anytime. Run your numbers. Check with the local social security office to see what your options are and how much you will receive NOW...and at your actual retirement age. Keeping in mind, you can still work after you retire...full or part-time with monetary restrictions. ...Also at age 62???, You can move into a nice Senior living facility with subsidized apartments. You Do have OPTIONS! 🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋🦋🌹🌹🦋🌹
"Win him over " Amen to you Anothy I am with you 100%, I have always felt like you, if you got to 💋A$$, or brown 👃someone on a job, you don't need it, I am 59 years of age, old school as well, You will be surprised of how many people stoop to this level, sad and a shame, nothing but a disgrace
Let me give a little advice. REALITY: It is much much harder to hire a competent worker than most people think. "Competent" does not mean that you are perfect or don't make any mistakes. A person who shows up on time, understands the work, and can get along with people is not easy to find. Most people do not understand this until they rise to a position where they have to hire their own people. They start out thinking that everybody is incompetent and everybody is replaceable. They very soon realize that they would be lucky to have a crew that will just show up everyday and just do basic work! *But secondly.* EVERYBODY who is successful learns to do things that are not their job description. We all have put in extra hours that we didn't get paid for. We all have jumped in at a pinch and helped with something that was not in our official job description. If you want to get ahead at any company, you DO IT. Not just to get in with one guy, but to be noticed by many people who work there. You need to go BEYOND what they have assigned you on paper. On the lower levels of employment people argue about "that's not my job." On the higher levels of employment people see these moments as "opportunities" to get noticed and put good will in their bank.
Hahaha. You guys are in kindergarten and you have to tell your classmate something good about himself so he can like himself lol. Always do you because no matter how much you try to please them if they are looking to fire you all the pleasing in the world won't stop them from firing you.
Anthony said, I am WILL NOT KISS THAT AZZ!!! You goooooooooooooo!!!! Do whatever you gotta do that fits your life. He probably did it because you didn't work those days that ask you to work last week...probably didn't have a dayum thing to do with the mishaps...especially since he went to check to see how long the press was down for those 3xs and it was only down 32 minutes for 3xs. I really don't think you have to worried about that job because I really think that the supervisor really likes you as a person...I don't think it will get to him firing you.
Hey Anthony!! You said a mouth full with your job situation. It's not fair for a supervisor to bring up your faults without counseling 1st before the final evaluation. I had the opposite happen a few years ago and I was highly upset. I'm glad you are in a great position to walk away when needed.
When I was working for Sears and they were getting messy I learned to write down very single encounter messy conversations and anything they were being shady Anthony I wanted to tell you on that last vlog about you want to get an apartment and hearing about Russia and the things going on with banks and now your job shit I wanted to tell you THINK REAL HARD IS THIS THE RIGHT TIME TO COMMIT TO AN APARTMENT WHEN SO MUCH IS A LITTLE UNSTABLE RIGHT right now you have less expenses and much more freedom if some shit hit the fans you would be in a decent place to make moves…Anthony are you a fire 🔥 sign ARIES ♈️ LEO ♌️ OR SAGITTARIUS ♐️?
Hello Anthony , I agree with you , "what is win someone over", the guy should do his job description and you do what's in your job description, which both of you should have instructions what they are.
Good for you Anthony!!! I was just getting ready to say start documenting everything, every conversation with the supervisor and that operator!!!! You're way ahead of me!!!! Something doesn't smell right!!!!
✨🥰✨Hey Anthony. I understand your initial reaction because we are all only human. I worked for a government agency before I retired & so you damn near had to kill somebody to get written up. It was also a union position & so I had that level of protection. Keep your head up & all will be well. Hugs and much love.✨🥰✨
I don't blame you! I feel the SAME WAY! I hate ppl who kiss up. I've been on my job 28 yrs & kissing up doesn't Always help keep your job or position...and I wouldn't do it if it did. So glad that I've never participated with that 🙌🏽
Hey Anthony at least you were honest to admit and yes every one do make mistakes. Don't let anyone get you upset.Anyway I ❤️❤️❤️❤️watching your videos .Stay safe and I will see you in your next video,,❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏 Thank's for Sharing
Anthony, you’re right about keeping a log of everything. Cover your own backside every step of the way. Keep your head up and keep it pushing. Always double check to make sure you’re loading the correct order on the press. I would even check one last time before actually starting to run the press. I’m praying for you to reach your desired goals as quickly as possible so you don’t have to punch a time clock ever again if you choose not to do so. Love and God’s blessing to you always.
I understand exactly how you feel . I was going to work until December but when the pandemic hit I just didn’t go back to work and I never felt better. I only had to be 60 years old or have 25 years. My birthday was coming in October so I was going to work until December but things changed and I was tired of work anyway. The pandemic was a blessing for me because I Retired 😁
No matter where you work trouble will come as along as you are working with others. Find work that you can do that is remote or get training and certification for another profession and get out of there. Be ready and prepare for your exit long before they can plot against you. Dont move back into another apartment. There are part time jobs out there that pay '$25hr you can work part time look at manufacturing jobs too for temporary employment during your training/learning something new process.
I worked as a Project Manager in the petrochemical construction and IT industries for many years. I just retired a few years ago, and I don't miss the stress one little bit. I met and worked with some very nice people over the years, but I worked with some people who would tell lies and try to make others look bad so that they could cover up their own mistakes or to advance their career. Some of these people were at my level, and others were much higher. Keeping a daily log and maintaining an email trail saved me several times. I had individuals who tried to blame me for their bad decisions and fortunately I had all of those decisions in writing. As soon as I was made aware of the situation I just pulled out the documentation and the problem went away. The facts spoke for themselves. If I made a mistake, I simply admitted it and that was the end of it. I worked for the same company for 28 years, so I guess that they were OK with my work. I never had a problem with doing what was needed to get the job done, no matter how boring it was, but sometimes the office politics were brutal. There were times that I hated to go to work due to the problems that my supervisor was creating. Every day was like chewing gum with a toothache. I hung in there and over time the supervisor was let go and the situation improved. Hang in there and don't take work too seriously. Do the best that you can and the days will pass quickly enough.
Totally agree. Take notes and keep a file in your car. You may never need them but boy will they save your ass if you do. And being so close to retirement for you they are really barking up the wrong tree. They should be kissing your axxx and not nit picking you.
Also every single worker makes mistakes including the managers. Who “coaches” them? When is the last time they called you in to say you did good that day? How many days did you do good? Hundreds? Don’t let them take away your joy.
You are such a REAL and Humble man! We all make mistakes no matter how long we've been doing a job... Doctors make mistakes all the time over people's lives... At least our mistakes aren't life threatening, and we can correct them... you corrected yours in 30 minutes... I think the guy who is complaining needs to look at things from another perspective! And he probably makes more mistakes than you, so he has to micro-management you to cover his flaws... deflection is their greatest tool
Wow!! Life is way too short to be winning someone over. Smh... definitely keep documenting everything and maybe audio record if there is another meeting...
Good luck Anthony. Just started watching your channel. Stand your ground. Love your determination. He lost 32 minutes in the office on the BS so just continue to do your best. You are Awesome 👍
I had to work 5 years with a lady who cost the company sooo much money. We worked shifts alone 2 days a week and she stole and plain just did not do her work. Every time I wrote her up I was told to "make it work". The head boss finally got around to watching the security feeds and she was finally fired after putting me through 5 years of hell. I figure the company deserved all the money she cost them. @ years later, desparate for help, they hired her back along with a girlfriend of hers. She robbed them blind.
Very interesting, It's good you have your notebook and just stay on top of your game especially when you have someone who want to use their seniority and have probably used it in the pass to get rid of workers. When you have a manager who is put in a position to go up against this type character he probably know this man will go above the manger to get what he want. No, I would not kiss his butt, just to do a job you're qualified to do. This person most be a miserable Soul.
Hey Anthony 👋🏾 Hru...I like supervisors who don't mind helping out the crew when they're behind but those lazy ones who don't want to do jacksh*t gets under my skin so bad🤬🤬
Anthony you were absolutely right about what you said to the supervisor.. also keeping your on records of mistakes etc. is critical at this point.. Just know they are looking for reason to let go at any means necessary. Thank goodness if anything happen it won't affect you tremendously but still just knowing is reason enough to be Thankful you are able to bounce back if need be. You may have to look around just in case. Hopefully it won't lead to that but you got it Anthony. 🙏🏾❤️🤗
I like your very candid rambling...l do it myself often. You provide a wealth of information and there are so many of us out here that are glad to hear you describe our exact emotions.💗
Anthony this is my favorite vlog I dont know how many times I've watched it I just love it you crack me up about that job ....now you can rest and do what you want💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾❤❤❤❤
A job I had years ago did me super dirty !! Went on for years and I was ready to quit !! But people on the job told me not to quit because I wouldn't get certain benefits that was due me . They said I wasn't keeping up with the work . Long story short, not only did I keep up with the work , I got a big bonus for putting out far more work then was expected of me ! About a month later or so , they fired me for not putting out enough work ! HUH ?????? Anyway they wanted me to sign papers saying I quit , but I wouldn't! Trying to shorten this , lol . I collected disability, blaming them for bad nerves , anxiety, etc. Had to try 3 times before I got the disability and lots of goodies from the job. Stay encouraged Anthony, you will do well from now on . Life is full of mistakes ! 😀
Anthony document everything. Come to your car and write everything down. Your actions and theirs. Write down everytime he stops production. Two can play that game..You are a man.
Greetings Anthony These like happenings occur When GOD IS USING YOU Be aware of the goings on of who is around and what is happening.. around you God is in control He is using you to help and encourage your brothers and sisters I pray for Strength Safety Courage For you and your family Amen
Anthony, I know how you feel. I worked in the Federal government for almost 31 years. I know that for some people, working in a certain place can be a career but, for me, it was a job. A means to an end. When they offered a buyout, I jumped at the chance and took the offer. I had enough time and the age. I discussed it with my husband (we always discuss decisions that will affect both of our lives) and he told me to do what I felt was best for me. He was still working. I did not love my job but I knew I had to have one so I stuck with it but when the opportunity presented itself, I left. That was 12 years ago and I do not regret it.
First:LOVE YOU ANTHONY 💜💕♥️ Next: PRAYING divine protection and direction for you. Also knowledge and understanding so you will make wise decisions. 3. So impressed by your thoughtfulness, wisdom, clarity and calmness. 4. How long does warning stay in file? 6 months, a year? Know this so you have an idea of what is stacking up on you. 5. Research the EAP, "Employee Assistance Program" and have it as an ace to KEEP you employed until 62. If you have to use it more than once...PLAN!
It really sounds like the operator is on the neurodivergent spectrum. A d has to function within certain rules and ways things are done. It's unfortunate that its impacting you. Funny things is the coaching session cost the company more time than your 32min of down time. It's a good idea to keep your notebook. Especially since one of the times your didn't recall. Ideally if an issue arises it should be coached within a week otherwise it didn't happen. I had a manager bring up something that happened 6 months prior during a write. I told him I have no idea what you're talking about. Clearly it's been bothering you for 6 months but you're just not bring it up. I can't speak to it or make a change since I don't remember it. I reminded him he had plenty of opportunities to discuss it with me, but 6 months later was a no go. HR didn't let him get away with that one. And the fact he told me he didn't like me during a write up. You are right it's not your job to help him with his job. What if you were to get injured then they could say that wasn't your job.
Amthony I love watching your videos. I never mind it if you're ever long winded. you're amazing and sharing your life with us just shows others that no matter what happens in your life keep moving forward.
Win him over? Wow...as a retired nurse, I remember all the times having to go above and beyond to keep my unit running smoothly, not for the supervisors or upper echelon, but for my patients...so many people do the bare minimum and being the one in charge I was expected to pick up the slack by my supervisors....Jesus didnt expect us to crawl on our bellies to get along with people, stand your ground, stand on your principles, they may not speak it, but u will earn their respect....
New to your channel. Document, document, document! It pays off. You are a Wiseman. I am really enjoying how you are living life fully! A free man which is wonderful.
Hang in there my friend! This too shall pass. Don't let them knock you off your goals. They gonna test ya! But as someone here said, you just come on over here and rant as much as you want. We will be here to listen and console if needed. You are a person with good intentions and that is ALL that matters.
Praying for you to have grace and favor. You have a wonderful attitude and are owning up to any minor mistakes but that operator seems to have an issue. I’m praying the truth comes out about the operator’s agenda. If God be for you, who could be against you- no one and nothing will prevail against you!
Anthony, it's not you--everyone makes mistakes. Today's world is merciless and extremely competitive. There is no more loyalty or appreciation on jobs. It's a different world. God bless and strengthen you to hang in there. Better days are coming!
These crap companies try to get rid of the older people just before retirement so they don’t pay their retirement !!!! I worked for Friendlys restaurant , was with the same store 18 yrs , and 4 with another store . Worked my ass off every day . You wouldn’t believe what I lived through . They got rid of my friend Sandy , 28 yrs with the company . They harassed me and her . Didn’t want to pay our medical ins . . The new people didn’t get . I got this abuse making $2.13 a hr. plus tips . I made good money and and supported my 2 boys on my own . But went home with constant stress !
@@jeanmariemissale5663 These are red flags Jean and you gotta be ready to protect yourself against the evil in this world. It ain't just the shooters doing damage to people, there's a lotta bad people (narcissistic personality disorders) out and about too, even in the workplace!!! We all gotta look around these days for the markers these people displaying, revealing about themselves and do what we can to protect ourselves from their arrogance and bullying.
Yep Anthony, my mom used to tell me all the time...just count it all JOY 😊, this too shall pass... trouble don't last always! Yep so therefore I don't let anything or anyone get me upset and especially stay upset, don't give this situation that much energy. 🥂 Cheers
I know I’m late but I totally agree with you Anthony! Sounds like they are just picking on you but you are very smart and a good person so it will all work for your good in the end and back fire on them one way or the other! God bless and keep you! I wish I could be as carefree as you and save all my money but I got kids 🤣😫🙏🏽
I have less than 5 years to age 62 and I am working towards owning a promaster van that me and my cat could live out of and escape civilization. While it's being paid off and built I plan on making it my ticket to camping and hiking on my days off. After 62 it would let me travel and be in nature all year round and only sometimes would I work jobs like campground host to supplement social security. After 62 life in a vehicle in beautiful places without financial fears would be so much better than being trapped in poverty forced to keep working until I dropped. I still plan on apartment living for most of my time left but I may have to live in the van one year before retiring just to pay everything off. I find it incredibly inspiring that you would find a way to bake cookies in your car, and then do it. That one video has sold me on the benefits of putting a small camping propane stove/oven combo in a van. I don't think even your smile could sell me on living in a space as small as a minivan but if you can pull off being happy in one then me living in a van is looking a lot better.
👍⭐️Good for speaking up for yourself. Yes, you do your job as best as you can. It is not a requirement for you to also do someone else’s job so they will like you! 🙄😠 That’s absurd! You’re grown & very smart & have been working a long time so I’m sure you know how to manage the manager, the job & coworkers. Wishing you the absolute best. 🙏💝
I feel the coaching for the mistakes was more of a reason to try to get you to appease to the supivisor I agree I'd be dammed if I'm bowing down to anyone just to please them I think companies forget were human and make mistakes at times love light and blessings 🥰
I just recently came across your grits in the car video from a week or so ago. I’ve been binge watching like everybody else. I really enjoy your content and how down to earth, grateful, and positive you remain despite your circumstance. I’ve also noticed that your subscriber count is rising at an insane rate, lol ! Hard work always pays off. Keep up the good work, Anthony. Much respect from Sunny SoCal.
Oh boy what a video. I like your keeping it real. I like all your comments about being called into office. It sure reminded me of my last years in nursing so frustrating and so stressful. I started at 57 swearing I would retire at 62. I will never forget telling my coworker that I dont care if I have to eat bologna sandwiches every day I am retiring early. And I did. It wont be long Anthony you will retire too. What was so bad in nursing was situation after situation compromised my patient care and the safety and welfare of my patients which I could not take. I went home crying so many nites. I love you Anthony, your heart is pure and you are smart enough to care for yourself.
Thanks for your comment, I’m going thru something now at my job. I left a specialty pharmacy job .. the pharmacy owns a large health care insurance so I took a job with the health insurance side as an appeals analyst .. talk about a nightmare … my sup told me yesterday -Friday - I have to work Sat, Sun and Mon to clear the cases on my worklist. It’s a holiday weekend I’m new, I’m supposed to be in a ramp up period until Jul 1, I’m not supposed to be dumped with a ton of cases, and no one is available to help me.. we’re supposed to have a mentor but there’s no one
Anthony you got 5 more years until you can retire so hang in there until then. Don’t let anyone take away your livelihood. Just vent to us, then pick yourself up, go back in that job and not let them break you. Yesss take note of everything since ole dude want to be petty 😀
thanks Kemi
Great advice
👍💯
Anthony "you are my hero and have e carisma my man hanging in there blessings buddy 🙆
Usually the closer to retirement the more picky they get, they want you to quit, DON'T you will mess up your pension, benefits, keep a goin'...man up with a smile, it will drive them crazy!!!
Yet they never call the lazy ones, or the trouble makers to the office, them are signs it’s time for you to move on.
True! I went a lifetime at different jobs with hardly a sick day and no vacation time...they ALWAYS pick on the dependable people. I'm talking working over 45 years...still going. Retirement got pushed from 55 to what? 67...like what's next...lowering us into a grave and saying ok... here's your retirement.....the excuse was people are living longer.. BS us over 55 earned retirement...kept this country going....so tragic.
So true
@@PCHGWHS you’re so right. I’m sorry you’re dealing with the backlash from these greedy ppl.
@@PCHGWHS Yes so true been on my job 24 years..it's tough trying to hang on.You go in early stay late do extra things and feel like you still not doing enough.Hate they raised retirement to 67 that's awful.
If you can stay do so. But…your feeling peace everyday is important. This will probably blow over. Best wishes and peace.
I don’t blame you! Kissing arse is not in the job description! He’s tripping!
..."I'm not that guy." Drop the mike Anthony!😆
This is work- a working relationship doesn't require winning someone over. This happens on every job- there's always a princess. Yes, a man can be princess too.
Horrible attitude,
men act like princesses all the time👀 boys just mock them
Exactly you are paid to do a job not be someone friend
I worked when I was at work but when my job was over I was ready to go home 🏡
Listen Mr. ANTHONY document everything you do. These people are treacherous.
Be cautious about what you say. You are most likely being watched by coworkers or management and they are aware you are getting monetized and could leave when it's best for you. We ALL make mistakes, as we are humans. Keep the faith and move when it is best for you to do so. Hang in there......
You responded well. I'm a manager at a corporation and trust me, when the nitpicking starts there are definitely underlying changes and they go for the so called easy targets first rather than their bootlickers. I'm proud you stood your ground. Your lifestyle is setting you up nicely and I'm so inspired by your channel. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting feedback. Thanks for commenting.
Sounds like the supervisor kind of knew it was BS but what coddling his operator a little. I doubt he would actually get in trouble...
😡 I got written up years and years ago I used to work at a country club, and to make a long story short it turns out that the manager wanted his nephew to have my job so he couldn’t wait to nitpick and get me out of there. Then I find out a couple years after I left the job the manager got fired for stealing-Big time Karma👍🏽
Serves him right
Happened to me at a job when the recession hit in 2008, cowker wanted her friend to have my job and it happened, once ur a target, there's nothing u can do or say, just prepare and move on...
@@elmobolan4274 yup👍🏽
Anthony , now that you know that they have something against you ( cause this was so petty) please consider staying in your vehicle a little longer .
Always be ahead of the game. You have more freedom now in your vehicle which gives you more opportunity to make a job decision if they keep getting on your nerves.
Always be a step ahead of them .
Good job writing everything down .
I use to work at a printing place. I use to run a small press. I also use to work in the camera and stripping department and make plates. That was over 35 years ago. Now I deliver mail but I did meet the love of my life at the printing place. He was a pressmen’s helper. He passes away two years ago. Hang in there. One great thing is you have a great life style and you are not bound to a job because you don’t have a million bills to pay.
This video brought back some great memories Anthony.
I’m very sorry for your loss I hope you are doing well🙏🏾
Condolences on your loss.
It's amazing how many ex-press operators here, lol. I'm probably older than most of y'all, I'm from the antique ABDick-360 days. (If ya know, ya know.)
I actually have nothing to say to you, except that I am in agreement 💯
I did want to direct my remarks to the video creator...
Like most people, including myself, we don't like to take advice, especially from an old man. But I'm going to try to rephrase what others have said.
Take the advice of a very old man: it's almost a guarantee that you are on the way out of the door. The nitpicking and the fake closed door meeting is just a formality and paper trail for when you are fired and try to apply for Workers Comp, or something.
The person that you are supposed to be assisting has decided that they do not want to work with you. You couldn't kiss enough butt even if you wanted to.
You are history and just don't know it. No one is going to change their minds.
It's worst than office politics because you have not been there long enough to form strong alliances, regardless of what anybody is saying RN.
When corporate or whoever, gives the green light to fire you, trust me, nobody will come to your defense.
Leave ASAP on your own terms, don't allow them to back you into a corner and have to try to fight your way out. You will lose.
But make your own decisions. Good luck, Friend.
Some people are so petty. People bring personal problems on the job and take out their aggression on people that have nothing to do with their situations. It's not you with the problem.
Majority people who bring there problems are the ones in leadership,😒 don't bring your problems to work is for everybody. Not just us. The workers.
The idea of being a grown man wanting to be won over by a coworker is so strange. We don’t have to like each other, Let’s do what we have to do for our shift and go on our way.
Ego.
Hey Anthony, you handled that "coaching level" with respect but that winning him over crap was too much! I am so glad that you straighten him out about that. "Old skool" kicked in ..LOL!!!
The conversation about trying to win over the Operator was the Supervisor's biggest mistake. I wonder if the Supervisor had stuck to the errors Anthony made, the conversation would have felt different. I work in HR and would never advise a supervisor to act that way or have that type of "let's keep this between us" talk with an employee. The company should be grateful to have someone on staff who ONLY makes 3 errors and kept his cool in an uncomfortable situation.
@@nikkienikkie4310 I agree!
I have 10 years left to work. I get to retire at 57 and then I’ll have a state retirement of about $1800 a month. I know that I won’t be able to live in a home on that so I plan on living in my van when I retire. Your videos have been invaluable to me. Thank you so much!
I just retired at 64 and I am SO glad to be out of the rat race! I have lived in my van for almost 10 years and I love the freedom and not having to put up with landlords, idiots and utility companies.
@@mistermusic140 that’s awesome! I’m glad you’ve been able to make van life work for you. I’m a little nervous about trying to stay cool in a van.
@@Frugal_fitchic the best thing I ever did was to buy myself a small house, when the interest rates were historically low during the pandemic. While renters are dealing with increased costs of rent, my mortgage is more than affordable, and does not increase. I can afford my lifestyle even better, and I was not in a financial crunch before.
@@soulchild2003 my house is 1,128 square feet. Here's some advice for you. If I had to do it again, I would now with the wisdom I have now gained , not just focus the square footage but look at it in conjunction of the layout of the house, to see if all is a good fit for you. Turns out, I could have gone smaller. If I knew that I would have looked at houses 900 to 1000 sq.feet. I have one too many bedrooms, and one room directly behind my kitchen, that, is underutilized. I have always enjoyed looking at pics online, of houses, whether buying or not, and still do. I have noticed that houses that are smaller than my small house, have great layouts, and no wasted space by having rooms and areas, I don't need, or will be underutilized Yet they have layouts that make them feel spacious. Am pretty sure though I am going to use that extra bedroom, to run a business out of, and that will make it a business expense I can deduct from my taxes. You can turn your home into an asset. Of course I could get a roommate , can easily rent for $700 a month. Currently, I like just the way things are. Finding a roommate, would be a long term project of a minimum of 6 months to possibly longer, to make sure, have chosen the right fit, so neither one of us are mismatched, making both of us very miserable. I need to look at not only the ability to pay rent, but also personality characteristics , that are compatible with mine. What I like now about my house, is that I have a lot of options , if I choose from , if I care to use them. My modest home has jumped up, to a + $50,000
more in value. I live up to my screen name, have no debt, other than my mortgage, and my net worth has increased, which before I got more financially literate, had no idea what the significance of a net worth is meant. My credit score is excellent. There's no way, I could rent an apartment , in my area, not even a studio, for under $600 a month. So, I appreciate my tiny mortgage which I got when interest rates were historically lower , at 2.95 % . You may want to consider with 10 years left to work, to buying a small house now. Take a look around at least. I have never lived in a van, but rented a room, before getting my house. I can assure you, living in a van or renting a room comes with disadvantages. Too each their own, but you have no kitchen in a van. Anthony makes it work exceptionally well, but most people are not like Anthony. However, you will spend more money on food, because you will have no freezer or pantry space to take advantage of food prices when they go on sale. I bought a brand new freezer, from Amazon, last year, with points from my reward cards. Total costs was under $30 . My regular frozen items needed for meals go in my refrigerator freezer. Things I have bought on sale for in my freezer, which I do shop, first, before adding something to my grocery list, I already have in my freezer. In a van, you are subject to intolerable weather conditions, which lead you to spend additional money for hotel rooms when it's just too hot or the temps have dropped to freezing temperatures.. I could not live without a bathroom, where I can bathe and shower, and use the toilet. Van dwellers are depending on gym memberships. Another added expense. Recently , we have had severe thunderstorms, roll through our area. I would not want to be out in a van in that. When you buy your home, it's an asset, it grows in value, there are tax breaks , your credit score rises, your net worth increases, all things you don't get with buying a van, not to mention, you must really be careful , safety wise, where you park. If you are not ready to settle down in one place, but roam around the country, then it definitely can work, and will save you money in hotel rooms, as you go place to place, exploring around the country. Otherwise gas is $5 a gallon, another added expense, because van dwellers often have to move their vehicles , trying to find places they can safely park, and are allowed to do so. You can't leave your van parked on any street indefinitely, you will be noticed and arouse suspicion , which will bring a patrol car of two officers to your vehicle, or you may wind up with a ticket of some sort, you have to pay. Society and law will classify you as transient and homeless, with no fixed permanent address. Basic things like mail delivery , will not be yours. You will have to rent a box somewhere, for your mail to go. I would rather buy a lot or a small acreage , somewhere I would be happy to live in retirement, and make sure there's no restrictions as to what I put on my property. Also, make sure if you want utilities that the power lines are in place. Beware of your options for water. If you are okay with being off grid completely or partially, then it's great. Do your research for all the different types of affordable types of homes, you can choose to live in. Each come with pros and cons, choose the one that has the most pros, and would definitely work for your needs and preferences.
@@soulchild2003 think I replied but in case I didn't, it's 1,128 square feet.
We are SOOO much alike, I DO NOT KISS ASS PERIOD!!! If I have to find another job, so be it!!! Hate to say this but it sounds like this is the beginning of the end... Also, I wanted to remind you that this lifestyle doesn't mean you have to go without, you just have to have a big enough space to have those things and that is up to interpretation, everyone has a different idea of what the right size is. I.E. you can stream live TV via HULU or whatever on any device that has internet, etc...
Yup yup. I also think RUclips Premium has a live TV component.
@@TheDawnofVanlife That is right!
Sometimes Anthony, we just need to vent for a few minutes to uncloud our thoughts, then we settle down. You handled that well.
It's all so petty. The mistakes he listed are all minor -- happen to everyone once in awhile. I think the operator has a grudge and the supervisor knows it. Supervisor likes you and is trying to find ways to make it work. But kissing ass is not one of those ways. And the pieces of paper are stupid, too. Glad you've got choices!
Good for you…take no BS from anyone when you know you are right. That’s the start of a slippery slope..you are 1,000% correct. You are a professional who knows their job and is more than competent. Is management trying to replace you because you make more money for your position and want to hire someone with less pay? This is a tactic that upper management tends to play. I know I was in the corporate world for many years and I have seen this first hand. Document everything so you have proof of your mistakes, conversations with management and so forth. Be aware and be careful. Take care and be safe my friend.😷
Always keep a work log, it sounds like they are after something more than your lack of work quality. I worked in the union for years before I retired.👍🏾
I think so too, I retired as a Union Rep
Hold your head high! Sorry they are messing with you! I worked over 30 years in offices typing away..no major issues at all...later on I worked at Wal-Mart for 6 years..unbelievable! I was a great employee but most managers loved to crack the whip on me..apparently they hated that I was so good..some employees told me I needed thicker skin that I wore my heart on my sleeve because I cared too much! It was crazy..just crazy what I went through. I would drive home crying my eyes out because I never got appreciation from management..customers loved me but bosses were sickening..very exhausting trying to please people that don't want you to be happy...
F a 9 to 5 im thankful I ain't at work my work is my channel 🙌 channels can make 10x more then a regular job easy I never had good experience when I did work I got fired for no reason many other issues with jobs won't get into it but it was completely insane what I dealt with extremely insane if only you knew
Never outshine the master. . 48laws of Power.
Good job Anthony !
Stand your ground .
Employers act like people must kiss the ground they walk in to keep a darn job !
Child please !
An employee should be valued for their skills and experience not to who butt they kiss.
The older a person gets the least BS you will take .
Try that with the newbies but no grown folks 😒
I really think it was something personal against you .
People are petty 🙄
Hi Pocholo. The operator is upset because the supervisor took the roll tender away from him that he has been working with for over 10 yrs. He's taking it out on me. My supervisor told me that the first day that he and I worked together.
@@FOASQUAD Hey , well a real professional should not have any issues working with anyone . He need to get over it . Just watch yourself Bro because you can tell he is a very petty person. Keep noting everything and I hope this works out for you .
W2w
I love how honest you are about life, keep being real.
Anthony i really hope your channel continues to grow so you can have all the freedom you desire!
Isn’t it funny how just them implementing “coaching” vs “warning” brings out a feeling in us? You’ve been in your job for a long time and used skills to get you thru those years and “new & improved” management styles get implemented and sometimes they flop and ppl storm out and quit sometimes they motivate us to pay attention, but either way I think, as employees, we feel that stirring inside that we need to rethink our life choices (living in car vs apartment, financial goals) and causes us to overthink...that’s the worst thing we can do is overthink but I’m with you on this one!
Be proud that you’ve been in your industry this long bc obviously you are doing something right! They could’ve saved some minutes by not calling you in office, they could’ve just said “hey reminder: pay attention, details matter” takes 2 seconds. 💥 ridiculous management styles and unnecessary coaching.
You run a successful RUclips channel, you’re obviously self motivated and you run a business so in my opinion, you are their asset.
I was a operator and your right the operator is suppose to maintain the Forming Machine. It also was my job to load the roll and start the Machine. I never would have wrote the on my paperwork.
By the way Anthony, I was in the printing business for 25 years. I was a buyer (the client doing the press checks), but I know the environment you speak of. Good job standing your ground.
Well done. Your response was great. Once the nitpicking begins that’s not a great sign. Who is the “they” that wanted to give you a warning? I’m not trying to fear-monger. Aside from experiencing it before, I’ve worked in employment law for several years (working with attorneys that represent employers against employee lawsuits, so I do know of the internal machinations. CYA.
Anthony you said it's already hard for them to find employees, why are they being so petty? This made no sense because people waste more than 32 minutes a day on most jobs. I agree, it's a good thing this happened before you moved back into an apartment. It's good to be financially free so if and when something goes down, you can bounce and not worry. Good you took responsibility, but if they keep this up, it will be their loss. Nobody is lining up to take those jobs, they will be looking forever to replace you.
Totally understand your frustration! You took responsibility for your errors, and they still want you to "win over" someone ....wtf!? I know thats just not right!! No asskissing over here!!
I'm dealing with the same bullshit at my place of work...that's exactly what it is, "Work!" I'm here to make my money.
They talking about we like "family"....nope,not me honey.
Because I don't conform,gossip, laugh along with the chatter, kiss ass...I stand out as the odd ball out. It's all good, I always get the last laugh. Thank you for sharing your story.these are the times, everyone going through something in the workplace.
Same here, except I now hear myself being labeled as a drug user- all because I do not fall in line with everyone else into the high school cliques. I'm pretty strong minded- and very self assured (not to be confused with conceit or vanity-its nothing to do with that) and confident in my abilities so I don't need any wing men in order to feel comfortable or accepted, because I don't need or care to be "accepted". The way I look at it is its THEIR loss truly, because I am hilarious and practically wrapped in teflon... that in and of itself is so aggravating to the ppl i work with and I guess that the type of person I am is so atypical that they had no idea what to call me so that's how I got this 'label'. Either that or they just wrote down all the options i.e 'the weirdo', 'the workplace ho', 'the class clown', 'the work mom', 'the druggie', etc on individual post it notes- threw them all in a hat and literally drew one out at random. Idk what else could've supported that claim because I'm definitely not a drug user. Thankfully, I could not care less. I try to have fun with it and say off the wall shit to them or do something I think is funny when I know I'm being watched. It works like a charm. Like someone else said, we're here for a pay check-not for being the most popular or see who can make the most friends. I left that shit in high school in 1998. Don't plan on revisiting either!
Keep your eye on the prize Anthony-you'll be unstoppable! Best of luck, you're definitely not alone!
You handled that really well! I’ve been meaning to tell you that I really liked your video where you talked about what you needed from us in order for your channel to be successful. You mentioned you wanted to get to 1000 views, and what a big deal it meant if we “liked” the video, etc. I now like all of your videos as I watch them! I didn’t realize that was a big deal! Also I check to see how many views you get, and sometimes I’ll go back and watch a video a second or third time just to give you some extra views! 😉 So maybe do another status update at the end of February, so we can know how to better support you on the channel! I enjoy your videos every day!
Keep a record of everything that you do and what the supervisor said
“Win him over.” Ha! The door swings both ways. What about winning me over?
I feel your pain. The same thing happens to me seems like every 2 months. Head up and eyes on the prize
Hey Clint....yep....just focusing on saving money. I will be a move sometime this year.
Always DOUBLE check your work. This is why they REALLY offered you another shift the other day, Also, they wanted to give you a warning vs. a coaching to start that walk out the door. Do not let them win. I would have made him write on the coaching document the total loss of time. Regardless of age everyone in the same position should be performing with the same expectations. Age discrimination is for real. Document so that if you need to contact the EOE or CHRO.
Velvet your are so right! Ageism is real in the workplace today! I’m 59 years old and a manager in a large healthcare corporation . The director & leadership blame managers for everything that goes wrong. We are scapegoats for every damn thing! They sit their overpaid lazy a$$es working “remotely “ while we are out in the medical facilities exposed to Covid and make dumb dysfunctional decisions! Had the nerve to meet with me because the employee survey results score was not high. Most of the toxic employees who did it are gone, I was on medical leave for 3 months and the director was in charge during that time. Her lazy a$$ barely came to check on the office & staff while I was out. When I returned the employees told me it was chaotic in the office and their co-workers were doing whatever they wanted. How the hell am I the blame ??! They fired over 2,000 employees last year for not getting vaccinated, a lot of turnover since Covid started across the organization & country due to resignations, short staffed and employees burned out as a result, people lost their family members to Covid, toxicity among some of the staff ect
I worked for this organization for 20 years! I started taking virtual real estate courses at a college at night. Just finished the final last week & scheduled the state real estate exam. I have been interviewing the past month for another job , possible offer soon for two jobs at different organizations! This director and AVP thinks that just because of my age I am stuck and have to kiss the a$$ to keep this job. I currently have a highly stressful job, most of the managers have left because it got worse after the onset of the pandemic! Know your worth ! If necessary start looking for another job, let them hire these young people who barely want to come to work, call out, quit because they live with their mama, are always on their cell phones and unproductive ect I can’t wait to give my resignation to get dried up lazy a$$! The next manager they hirer will be younger and they will be lucky if they stay one year there! None of the younger supervisors stay, they transfer to promotional positions. So Anthony if I was you, I would start looking for another job , don’t waste time keeping notes. The operator sounds petty & they have proof of your mistakes it’s not as though it’s something that can’t be verified. They are building up a case to terminate you, take my word I have been a manager for over 20 years. Don’t give them the satisfaction, find another job and resign in peace! 🙏🏾❤️
I was once in the same situation, I could see it coming after my first "verbal warning" which my manager put in writing and asked me to sign the form she completed. I refused to sign it because there were errors in her accounts of my mistakes. She said no problem, but it's still going into your HR file. After that, she created false accusations about my work and purposely changed my reports to make them questionable and more corrective meetings with her followed. I decided I didn't want a meeting with her and HR department. I refused to work with a toxic manager, so I went on a two-week vacation and then went in early on the day I was to return to work and slipped my resignation letter under my manager's office door and left the building. I had a phone interview with another company during my vacation, and started a new job two weeks later, which also paid more, so yeah. I refused to take her abuse. I left a toxic environment for sure!
Yes. See that . I'm happy for you...when one door closes another one opens.They think they're hurting you but really doing you a favor.They keep the workers that do bare minimal and kick the ones that go out there way in the butt... Pathetic!!!
Yes, I understand why you want to keep your options open. Maybe you should purchase a van that comes with the sink, cabinets, etc, already installed.
Hey Anthony, we all are human and we all make mistakes, remember you have five years to go, hang in there. Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend. Please just watch your back and you don't need to win no one over for a job.
hey Nedra....always something lol. I am eagerly awaiting til I can make a move. It's coming soon.
@@FOASQUAD Hello Anthony 👋 ☺ 👋
I'm a new subby. I, so very much enjoy your videos!
You can RETIRE anytime.
Run your numbers. Check with the local social security office to see what your options are and how much you will receive NOW...and at your actual retirement age.
Keeping in mind, you can still work after you retire...full or part-time with monetary restrictions.
...Also at age 62???, You can move into a nice Senior living facility with subsidized apartments.
You Do have OPTIONS!
🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋🦋🌹🌹🦋🌹
"Win him over " Amen to you Anothy I am with you 100%, I have always felt like you, if you got to 💋A$$, or brown 👃someone on a job, you don't need it, I am 59 years of age, old school as well, You will be surprised of how many people stoop to this level, sad and a shame, nothing but a disgrace
Proverbs 22:7 The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Don’t be a servant, direct your own path! 💪🏾
Let me give a little advice.
REALITY: It is much much harder to hire a competent worker than most people think. "Competent" does not mean that you are perfect or don't make any mistakes. A person who shows up on time, understands the work, and can get along with people is not easy to find. Most people do not understand this until they rise to a position where they have to hire their own people. They start out thinking that everybody is incompetent and everybody is replaceable. They very soon realize that they would be lucky to have a crew that will just show up everyday and just do basic work!
*But secondly.* EVERYBODY who is successful learns to do things that are not their job description. We all have put in extra hours that we didn't get paid for. We all have jumped in at a pinch and helped with something that was not in our official job description. If you want to get ahead at any company, you DO IT. Not just to get in with one guy, but to be noticed by many people who work there. You need to go BEYOND what they have assigned you on paper.
On the lower levels of employment people argue about "that's not my job." On the higher levels of employment people see these moments as "opportunities" to get noticed and put good will in their bank.
Truth! Another favorite is, "that's above my pay grade".
Hahaha. You guys are in kindergarten and you have to tell your classmate something good about himself so he can like himself lol. Always do you because no matter how much you try to please them if they are looking to fire you all the pleasing in the world won't stop them from firing you.
Anthony said, I am WILL NOT KISS THAT AZZ!!! You goooooooooooooo!!!! Do whatever you gotta do that fits your life. He probably did it because you didn't work those days that ask you to work last week...probably didn't have a dayum thing to do with the mishaps...especially since he went to check to see how long the press was down for those 3xs and it was only down 32 minutes for 3xs. I really don't think you have to worried about that job because I really think that the supervisor really likes you as a person...I don't think it will get to him firing you.
Hey Anthony!! You said a mouth full with your job situation. It's not fair for a supervisor to bring up your faults without counseling 1st before the final evaluation. I had the opposite happen a few years ago and I was highly upset. I'm glad you are in a great position to walk away when needed.
When I was working for Sears and they were getting messy I learned to write down very single encounter messy conversations and anything they were being shady Anthony I wanted to tell you on that last vlog about you want to get an apartment and hearing about Russia and the things going on with banks and now your job shit I wanted to tell you THINK REAL HARD IS THIS THE RIGHT TIME TO COMMIT TO AN APARTMENT WHEN SO MUCH IS A LITTLE UNSTABLE RIGHT right now you have less expenses and much more freedom if some shit hit the fans you would be in a decent place to make moves…Anthony are you a fire 🔥 sign ARIES ♈️ LEO ♌️ OR SAGITTARIUS ♐️?
I enjoy your work-related stories!!👍🏾💪🏾Stay focused!😎
Hard work don’t bother me. It them dam petty, lazy ass co-workers Lol
Hello Anthony , I agree with you , "what is win someone over", the guy should do his job description and you do what's in your job description, which both of you should have instructions what they are.
Good for you Anthony!!! I was just getting ready to say start documenting everything, every conversation with the supervisor and that operator!!!! You're way ahead of me!!!! Something doesn't smell right!!!!
Pay attention and trust nobody
Anthony, you are so right! I'm glad you're weighing your options.
✨🥰✨Hey Anthony. I understand your initial reaction because we are all only human. I worked for a government agency before I retired & so you damn near had to kill somebody to get written up. It was also a union position & so I had that level of protection. Keep your head up & all will be well. Hugs and much love.✨🥰✨
I don't blame you! I feel the SAME WAY! I hate ppl who kiss up. I've been on my job 28 yrs & kissing up doesn't Always help keep your job or position...and I wouldn't do it if it did. So glad that I've never participated with that 🙌🏽
Hey Anthony at least you were honest to admit and yes every one do make mistakes. Don't let anyone get you upset.Anyway I ❤️❤️❤️❤️watching your videos .Stay safe and I will see you in your next video,,❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏 Thank's for Sharing
Anthony, you’re right about keeping a log of everything. Cover your own backside every step of the way. Keep your head up and keep it pushing. Always double check to make sure you’re loading the correct order on the press. I would even check one last time before actually starting to run the press. I’m praying for you to reach your desired goals as quickly as possible so you don’t have to punch a time clock ever again if you choose not to do so. Love and God’s blessing to you always.
Anthony I am so glad that I'm retired I don't have to deal with that b*******
Me too.
I understand exactly how you feel . I was going to work until December but when the pandemic hit I just didn’t go back to work and I never felt better. I only had to be 60 years old or have 25 years. My birthday was coming in October so I was going to work until December but things changed and I was tired of work anyway. The pandemic was a blessing for me because I Retired 😁
No matter where you work trouble will come as along as you are working with others. Find work that you can do that is remote or get training and certification for another profession and get out of there. Be ready and prepare for your exit long before they can plot against you. Dont move back into another apartment. There are part time jobs out there that pay '$25hr you can work part time look at manufacturing jobs too for temporary employment during your training/learning something new process.
I worked as a Project Manager in the petrochemical construction and IT industries for many years. I just retired a few years ago, and I don't miss the stress one little bit. I met and worked with some very nice people over the years, but I worked with some people who would tell lies and try to make others look bad so that they could cover up their own mistakes or to advance their career. Some of these people were at my level, and others were much higher. Keeping a daily log and maintaining an email trail saved me several times. I had individuals who tried to blame me for their bad decisions and fortunately I had all of those decisions in writing. As soon as I was made aware of the situation I just pulled out the documentation and the problem went away. The facts spoke for themselves. If I made a mistake, I simply admitted it and that was the end of it. I worked for the same company for 28 years, so I guess that they were OK with my work. I never had a problem with doing what was needed to get the job done, no matter how boring it was, but sometimes the office politics were brutal. There were times that I hated to go to work due to the problems that my supervisor was creating. Every day was like chewing gum with a toothache. I hung in there and over time the supervisor was let go and the situation improved. Hang in there and don't take work too seriously. Do the best that you can and the days will pass quickly enough.
Totally agree. Take notes and keep a file in your car. You may never need them but boy will they save your ass if you do. And being so close to retirement for you they are really barking up the wrong tree. They should be kissing your axxx and not nit picking you.
Also every single worker makes mistakes including the managers. Who “coaches” them? When is the last time they called you in to say you did good that day? How many days did you do good? Hundreds? Don’t let them take away your joy.
You are such a REAL and Humble man! We all make mistakes no matter how long we've been doing a job... Doctors make mistakes all the time over people's lives... At least our mistakes aren't life threatening, and we can correct them... you corrected yours in 30 minutes... I think the guy who is complaining needs to look at things from another perspective! And he probably makes more mistakes than you, so he has to micro-management you to cover his flaws... deflection is their greatest tool
Wow!! Life is way too short to be winning someone over. Smh... definitely keep documenting everything and maybe audio record if there is another meeting...
Good luck Anthony. Just started watching your channel. Stand your ground. Love your determination. He lost 32 minutes in the office on the BS so just continue to do your best. You are Awesome 👍
Good for you Anthony!! You handled that very well 👏 👌 👍 💯🤗
You’re still Great Anthony!
I had to work 5 years with a lady who cost the company sooo much money. We worked shifts alone 2 days a week and she stole and plain just did not do her work. Every time I wrote her up I was told to "make it work". The head boss finally got around to watching the security feeds and she was finally fired after putting me through 5 years of hell. I figure the company deserved all the money she cost them. @ years later, desparate for help, they hired her back along with a girlfriend of hers. She robbed them blind.
Geez
😫🤦🏾♀️🤣🤣😆😆🤣🤣
Very interesting, It's good you have your notebook and just stay on top of your game especially when you have someone who want to use their seniority and have probably used it in the pass to get rid of workers. When you have a manager who is put in a position to go up against this type character he probably know this man will go above the manger to get what he want. No, I would not kiss his butt, just to do a job you're qualified to do. This person most be a miserable Soul.
I understand all that you are saying. I'm so happy for you. Blessings to you King. Keep doing what you're doing. It is well with my soul and yours
Hey Anthony 👋🏾 Hru...I like supervisors who don't mind helping out the crew when they're behind but those lazy ones who don't want to do jacksh*t gets under my skin so bad🤬🤬
Anthony you were absolutely right about what you said to the supervisor.. also keeping your on records of mistakes etc. is critical at this point.. Just know they are looking for reason to let go at any means necessary. Thank goodness if anything happen it won't affect you tremendously but still just knowing is reason enough to be
Thankful you are able to bounce back if need be. You may have to look around just in case. Hopefully it won't lead to that but you got it Anthony. 🙏🏾❤️🤗
I like your very candid rambling...l do it myself often. You provide a wealth of information and there are so many of us out here that are glad to hear you describe our exact emotions.💗
Anthony this is my favorite vlog I dont know how many times I've watched it I just love it you crack me up about that job ....now you can rest and do what you want💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾❤❤❤❤
A job I had years ago did me super dirty !!
Went on for years and I was ready to quit !!
But people on the job told me not to quit because I wouldn't get certain benefits that was due me .
They said I wasn't keeping up with the work .
Long story short, not only did I keep up with the work , I got a big bonus for putting out far more work then was expected of me !
About a month later or so , they fired me for not putting out enough work ! HUH ??????
Anyway they wanted me to sign papers saying I quit , but I wouldn't!
Trying to shorten this , lol .
I collected disability, blaming them for bad nerves , anxiety, etc.
Had to try 3 times before I got the disability and lots of goodies from the job.
Stay encouraged Anthony, you will do well from now on .
Life is full of mistakes !
😀
Anthony document everything. Come to your car and write everything down. Your actions and theirs. Write down everytime he stops production. Two can play that game..You are a man.
“I’m not THAT guy…” love your answer! 👍🏻
Greetings Anthony
These like happenings occur
When GOD IS USING YOU
Be aware of the goings on of who is around and what is happening.. around you
God is in control
He is using you to help and encourage your brothers and sisters
I pray for
Strength
Safety
Courage
For you and your family
Amen
GOD BLESS you
Have a positive day
Anthony, I know how you feel. I worked in the Federal government for almost 31 years. I know that for some people, working in a certain place can be a career but, for me, it was a job. A means to an end. When they offered a buyout, I jumped at the chance and took the offer. I had enough time and the age. I discussed it with my husband (we always discuss decisions that will affect both of our lives) and he told me to do what I felt was best for me. He was still working. I did not love my job but I knew I had to have one so I stuck with it but when the opportunity presented itself, I left. That was 12 years ago and I do not regret it.
Hang in there Anthony!People like this only remember your mistakes,not the good things you do.
This is exactly why that after COVID that a lot of people did not return to these slave factories and started their own businesses.
Good stay firm don’t let them push you around
First:LOVE YOU ANTHONY 💜💕♥️
Next: PRAYING divine protection and direction for you. Also knowledge and understanding so you will make wise decisions.
3. So impressed by your thoughtfulness, wisdom, clarity and calmness.
4. How long does warning stay in file? 6 months, a year? Know this so you have an idea of what is stacking up on you.
5. Research the EAP, "Employee Assistance Program" and have it as an ace to KEEP you employed until 62. If you have to use it more than once...PLAN!
It really sounds like the operator is on the neurodivergent spectrum. A d has to function within certain rules and ways things are done. It's unfortunate that its impacting you. Funny things is the coaching session cost the company more time than your 32min of down time. It's a good idea to keep your notebook. Especially since one of the times your didn't recall. Ideally if an issue arises it should be coached within a week otherwise it didn't happen. I had a manager bring up something that happened 6 months prior during a write. I told him I have no idea what you're talking about. Clearly it's been bothering you for 6 months but you're just not bring it up. I can't speak to it or make a change since I don't remember it. I reminded him he had plenty of opportunities to discuss it with me, but 6 months later was a no go. HR didn't let him get away with that one. And the fact he told me he didn't like me during a write up.
You are right it's not your job to help him with his job. What if you were to get injured then they could say that wasn't your job.
Anthony I bet that job you left didn’t realize how good they had it! Look at how that closed door has now opened new doors for you! Go Anthony!!!!!
Amthony I love watching your videos. I never mind it if you're ever long winded. you're amazing and sharing your life with us just shows others that no matter what happens in your life keep moving forward.
Anthony I admire where you are coming from. Love your honesty and old school morals
Win him over? Wow...as a retired nurse, I remember all the times having to go above and beyond to keep my unit running smoothly, not for the supervisors or upper echelon, but for my patients...so many people do the bare minimum and being the one in charge I was expected to pick up the slack by my supervisors....Jesus didnt expect us to crawl on our bellies to get along with people, stand your ground, stand on your principles, they may not speak it, but u will earn their respect....
New to your channel. Document, document, document! It pays off. You are a Wiseman. I am really enjoying how you are living life fully! A free man which is wonderful.
Hang in there my friend! This too shall pass. Don't let them knock you off your goals. They gonna test ya!
But as someone here said, you just come on over here and rant as much as you want. We will be here to listen and console if needed. You are a person with good intentions and that is ALL that matters.
Praying for you to have grace and favor. You have a wonderful attitude and are owning up to any minor mistakes but that operator seems to have an issue. I’m praying the truth comes out about the operator’s agenda. If God be for you, who could be against you- no one and nothing will prevail against you!
Anthony, it's not you--everyone makes mistakes. Today's world is merciless and extremely competitive. There is no more loyalty or appreciation on jobs. It's a different world. God bless and strengthen you to hang in there. Better days are coming!
They fixin' to get rid of you Anthony, be ready for it.
These crap companies try to get rid of the older people just before retirement so they don’t pay their retirement !!!! I worked for Friendlys restaurant , was with the same store 18 yrs , and 4 with another store . Worked my ass off every day . You wouldn’t believe what I lived through . They got rid of my friend Sandy , 28 yrs with the company . They harassed me and her . Didn’t want to pay our medical ins . . The new people didn’t get . I got this abuse making $2.13 a hr. plus tips . I made good money and and supported my 2 boys on my own . But went home with constant stress !
@@jeanmariemissale5663 These are red flags Jean and you gotta be ready to protect yourself against the evil in this world. It ain't just the shooters doing damage to people, there's a lotta bad people (narcissistic personality disorders) out and about too, even in the workplace!!! We all gotta look around these days for the markers these people displaying, revealing about themselves and do what we can to protect ourselves from their arrogance and bullying.
Yep Anthony, my mom used to tell me all the time...just count it all JOY 😊, this too shall pass... trouble don't last always! Yep so therefore I don't let anything or anyone get me upset and especially stay upset, don't give this situation that much energy. 🥂 Cheers
Look at you now! God is so good!
I know I’m late but I totally agree with you Anthony! Sounds like they are just picking on you but you are very smart and a good person so it will all work for your good in the end and back fire on them one way or the other! God bless and keep you! I wish I could be as carefree as you and save all my money but I got kids 🤣😫🙏🏽
I have less than 5 years to age 62 and I am working towards owning a promaster van that me and my cat could live out of and escape civilization. While it's being paid off and built I plan on making it my ticket to camping and hiking on my days off. After 62 it would let me travel and be in nature all year round and only sometimes would I work jobs like campground host to supplement social security. After 62 life in a vehicle in beautiful places without financial fears would be so much better than being trapped in poverty forced to keep working until I dropped. I still plan on apartment living for most of my time left but I may have to live in the van one year before retiring just to pay everything off.
I find it incredibly inspiring that you would find a way to bake cookies in your car, and then do it. That one video has sold me on the benefits of putting a small camping propane stove/oven combo in a van. I don't think even your smile could sell me on living in a space as small as a minivan but if you can pull off being happy in one then me living in a van is looking a lot better.
Awesome reply Anthony!👏🏽👏🏽
I love seeing the look on "their" face when you don't Fall In Line like they expect you to😏 You better ask somebody😎
You are growing so well Anthony. You can soon live off of your RUclips earnings.
Back a year later Anthony still a savage in this 😂😂
👍⭐️Good for speaking up for yourself. Yes, you do your job as best as you can. It is not a requirement for you to also do someone else’s job so they will like you! 🙄😠 That’s absurd! You’re grown & very smart & have been working a long time so I’m sure you know how to manage the manager, the job & coworkers. Wishing you the absolute best. 🙏💝
I feel the coaching for the mistakes was more of a reason to try to get you to appease to the supivisor I agree I'd be dammed if I'm bowing down to anyone just to please them I think companies forget were human and make mistakes at times love light and blessings 🥰
I just recently came across your grits in the car video from a week or so ago. I’ve been binge watching like everybody else. I really enjoy your content and how down to earth, grateful, and positive you remain despite your circumstance. I’ve also noticed that your subscriber count is rising at an insane rate, lol ! Hard work always pays off. Keep up the good work, Anthony. Much respect from Sunny SoCal.
Me too! 😆🤣😆🤣💯❤️❤️❤️🥰
Oh boy what a video. I like your keeping it real. I like all your comments about being called into office. It sure reminded me of my last years in nursing so frustrating and so stressful. I started at 57 swearing I would retire at 62. I will never forget telling my coworker that I dont care if I have to eat bologna sandwiches every day I am retiring early. And I did. It wont be long Anthony you will retire too. What was so bad in nursing was situation after situation compromised my patient care and the safety and welfare of my patients which I could not take. I went home crying so many nites. I love you Anthony, your heart is pure and you are smart enough to care for yourself.
Thanks for your comment, I’m going thru something now at my job. I left a specialty pharmacy job .. the pharmacy owns a large health care insurance so I took a job with the health insurance side as an appeals analyst .. talk about a nightmare … my sup told me yesterday -Friday - I have to work Sat, Sun and Mon to clear the cases on my worklist. It’s a holiday weekend
I’m new, I’m supposed to be in a ramp up period until Jul 1, I’m not supposed to be dumped with a ton of cases, and no one is available to help me.. we’re supposed to have a mentor but there’s no one
You should have reported your facility.
