So I've been working in this Shopping Mall fast food called Teriyaki Experience, food is pretty nice and actually healthy which is a plus for a fast food but anyway !

So ! when I was hired there was no permanent managed, only some guy who came from New-Brunswick for a month to act as a temporary manager, he left two weeks ago thus leaving us without a manager, though some guy from Toronto came at our place to check on us and stuff and he took the manager duty during his time here, he also had to look for a real manager and he found one.. who sucks so much.

He's called Moses (lol) and he's from the Dominican Republic, now that wouldn't be a problem but his French and his English are both really crappy, I barely can understand what he says when he speaks to me in French, even worse in English. He also has a lot of trouble understanding both languages.. and you know what he likes to do the most? Take orders, and you know what happens when someone who doesn't speak the language well take orders? People who get shrimps when they asked for a glass of water (seriously, it happened).

That's only one problem though, he's supposed to take care of foods and stuff to make sure we have enough of anything to go through the day and the next one without having to rush too much. Obviously he can't do it, yesterday when I came to work I went to the grill and noticed that our vegetables were freaking PURPLE, carrots, green cabbage and broccoli aren't supposed to be purple and smell like vinegar. So like I told him that without vegetables that we wouldn't be able to cook 60% of the meals since they needed them and we had no reserve ones (well we did, but they were rotten too). So Moses bright as he is decided that instead of closing the restaurant because we can't be open when we can't serve 60% of the meals asked me to use the other vegetable mix (That is Bok Choy and Green Pepper). 2 problems with this, the mix doesn't taste the same and thus customers notices and 2 we have like 6x less of that second vegetable mix so we went through it in record time and were left with NO vegetables for a few hours until the girls working in the back made some (they worked like crazy that day I tell ya). So anyway, after that we wondered why the hell our vegetables were rotten, so we checked the fridge and noticed that the temperature inside it was 64°, 64! And you know what we keep in that fridge? Raw chicken, yes, raw chicken spending the day at 64°, now that's literally what we call a recipe for disaster. Moses never noticed though, of if he did never thought of calling a repairman and goddamn, close the damn restaurant until it's fixed.

So anyway, Moses sucks as a manager and we're trying our bestest to get him out of the way but it's kinda hard since the higher ups don't want to fire him since they have no replacement. Well they think we don't but every single employee working there can do the job much much better than that guy even if we lack the qualifications, none of us can think of getting promoted though, because of those damn qualifications we don't have (and none of us worked at that place more than a month so..)

I have a 50% discount on all meals at this place.. needless to say I'm never gonna use it. I feel bad for giving that food to the customers and would totally tell them to go elsewhere if I wasn't in dire need of money, still think of quitting if we don't get a real manager soon.

tl;dr version : New manager where I work, he ****ing sucks, rotten food everywhere, raw chicken in warm fridge, makes me feel real bad.

Yeah, but he charged them for it.

So basically they paid 4 bucks for shrimps they didn't want.

7 pitiful rotten shrimps.

Oh we tried alright, but it's like he doesn't listen to us, he stares with empty eyes really like he's turning his brain off whenever we talk to him about this stuff.

Ah also, one of the higher-ups called him a few days ago and obviously he told them that everything was going well !

His English is better than his French and the Higher-Ups are all English speakers so I guess it's easier for them than for me. I'm getting good at understanding spoken English but I still have a trouble with strong accents.

Well the restaurant would probably close until the problems are fixed, could take a while, depending on the time it takes I could or could not manage to pay my rents.

I think I'll look for another job during my spare time and if I find anything better I'll quit this one.

Internet helps with written English sure, but accents not so much, I don't watch a lot of videos and stuff, accents from non-English speaking countries are pretty rare in video games too.

Hmm.. usually when we close the restaurant we have to wait until we're really done to leave, even if it's past our shift hours. I'm thinking of just leaving him to do whatever will be left once my shift ends (5:30), could really ends in disaster though.

Yes, no?

Might want to look for another job before you completely screw over this current one. If he messes up too bad then you'll be out of work.

Well he can't mess up that bad, by the time my shift ends everything should be done, if it's not the case the stuff that'll be left is like the dishes and cleaning that huge ass vegetables container. He probably can still mess up so much doing this that the whole mall will explode but I think I'll take my chances.

Hey today wasn't that bad ! He picked up a fight with one of the customers but I still managed to leave the place before the end of my shift.

Okay, it's because I conviced him to close the restaurant 1h early so I could have to time to do everything and get outta there asap but still !

Hahahahaha the Health Inspector came visit us today near the end of my shift, if I wasn't tired as **** I would've stayed just to watch the disaster.

I was supposed to work tomorrow but since she ordered my boss to trash pretty much everything I think I won't.

Depends on the place... There is this fast food place near my house called Wrapper Jack's (healthy wraps, food bowls and such) and I think it's run by this dude and his daughters. They have a tip option on their Interac as well as a tip cup. I tip pretty often there because I can tell there are about 3 people working there and they serve good food with friendly service. I don't think it's too uncommon for small establishments, even if they are part of a chain.
