#like even with 50% the cheapest thing on the menu is still 5.50 before tax. I could take my ass to McDonald's and spend 3.47

found out today that the new restaurant I just started working for doesn't give us free shift meals and I'm genuinely thinking about quitting over it

#like it's so fucking insulting. 'oh but you still get 50% off!!' we're the only reason you can even sell any of this shit!! #the LEAST you could fucking do is let us have some. fucks sake #and like if ur trying to keep costs down?? other places ik will only let you get chicken or beef and I feel like that's a fair compromise!! #oh what's even better is that I'm there from 9 to 4 and I can't leave so if I want to eat lunch I HAVE TO give them my money #same deal with night shift unless I'm fine with eating dinner at fucking 10:30 #grumble grumble #idk it's just like if you're not gonna give me a free meal you should at least let me leave to get food I can actually afford. you know??? #like even with 50% the cheapest thing on the menu is still 5.50 before tax. I could take my ass to McDonald's and spend 3.47 #AND get points toward my next meal!! bitch! UGH like what in the world #I'm sure their thinking is we should consider ourselves lucky they're paying us 7.25 instead of 2.13 or whatever it is. fuck off
