I (17) just got my first job and it seems way more stressful than it should be. I work at Raising Canes, the fast food restaurant, and so far it has been the weirdest environment.

different managers follow different rules. Im told different ways to clean things everyday and then told the way i was doing it is wrong. The next week ill see a manager do it the exact same way i WAS doing it.

I was trained on cooking toast for 5 minutes then sent into our busiest time. my manager acts awkward like IM the weird one for asking questions. she stares at me like i gave 3 heads and just goes “uhh…”

new people are hired every week it seems and someone is also fired every week. i have not seen a lot of my coworkers i liked return in a while. My favorite manager was just fired Too, and im worried my other manager is about to be fired too.

they have also mentioned cameras and microphones being around the building so they can “hear everything”. This is so stressful i cant stand it. I come home and cry every night. Im a closer. Im 17 years old and close every single weekend. I cant really see my friends. I was there 6-1 AM yesterday, 4PM-11PM the day before, 4PM-2AM (came in early, was scheduled 7PM-2 AM). I just work all night. Its every weekend almost. My hours and days are inconsistent too. I work tuesdays and thursdays randomly. I only have 15 hours next week. Then 22.5 after that. also why are they hiring a billion people??? Theres a new orientation with 6 people every two weeks. Were already overlabored nearly every single shift. I get sent home early all the time. my check this week is 159 (I get paid weekly). I feel like we shouldnt hire this much?

is being an adult really this bad??? Is it me or my job? I feel like its not normal to come home wondering if you’ll be fired next just bc you didnt charge for an extra sauce on accident. i like my coworkers but i hate hate hate my job. It would be so much easier if the work environment didnt feel so stressful and tense. i hate that they can “hear everything” we say all the time. I just wanna make some money to move out :/
