My job is in limbo

Well my job went to BS again, why? I'll explain, it's a bit long-winded. So, yes, I have a job, but I don't have work
to do, if that makes sense.

So, what I was doing was working in a warehouse, which wasn't permanent and being leased out to us to unload and deliver bread into vans/trucks. What my job was meet the delivery driver four times per week to unload bread for the other drivers to distribute to the stores around the county I live in (and in the neighboring counties). While this has been happening, a new location for a bakery and loading dock was being built about 43 miles (70 km), northwest of where I was working. Well, the lease for the old building expired, and all the workers now work up at the new location. What was supposed to happen, is what my unloading job switch to merchandising, which would be going to the stores where our brand of bread was delivered and count the bread, make sure it's faced properly and send the info to my boss. However, this is where things get tricky, see, he was supposed to have a system where I merchandise five times a week, and share one of the vehicles with another merchandiser.

This hasn't happened, I've been out of work for six days, ever since they relocated to the new warehouse. To make it worse, if I want to get more hours, consistently, I would have to travel 86 miles per day, to just two hours' work, only to spend an hour each way to drive. My care has 134,000 miles on, to drive 1600 miles a month on the freeway would add far more wear and tear, causing me to replace the engine, transmission, etc. To sum this all up, my job, which I thought would improve once I got it back, hasn't improved at all. I was never given the merchandising hours as I was promised by my boss, I shouldn't have to travel one hour to work each day to only do p>

Screw that company, and screw them for not promising me more hours merchandising. I've been so stressed and anxious that I broke down in tears a couple of days ago. I've half a mind to drive up to the warehouse, flip them off with both middle fingers as I drive by for all to see. I've asked in person, as well as texted my boss as a reminder to give definitive information and facts about my future at this company.

Um, I'd love to, but I'd have to move out of state, there's no Amazon location for me to work here >.> Sorry :unsure:
 
There soon will be. Amazon is buying places everywhere! They're trying to expand their Prime coverage. But if you really want a better job, get another degree! (Did you go to college?)
 
Yes, I did, but it was a huge mistake, 6000 dollars in debt and no longer able to afford tuition. I have to have my debt paid off, hence why I need a job. All I have is a high school education. I need a job sooner than later.
 
Keep searching in your area, most of the time stores like Stop & Shop/ShopRite/Wal-Mart/Target are looking for employees. They pay surprisingly well. Try for a job and see if you get accepted. You may start off as the-guy-who-brings-stuff-from-the-back-and-puts-it-on-the-shelf but you may get promoted to cashier. You get reduced prices on items in the store (like Switch games) so give it a shot!

    Speaking of meatballs, what's the deal with meatball sandwich? How can people eat those? It's ROUND. Trying to bite those in a sandwich is a challenge. It's easier to eat a burger stacked with toppings. :ninja:
