Merry McXmas

By myjobsucks - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, I found out that I'm working on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. I'm spending my favourite time of the year working for $8.70 an hour. At McDonald's. FML

At least you can point and laugh at the losers who are eating Christmas dinner or ringing in the new year at Mickey D's. Yeah, you can act superior since you are not there of your own free will.

Actually, thats better than what I make an hour. I make 7.25, I'm a assistant manager basically, and I HAVE to work holidays or else I'll get written up or fired. Thats how it works at the shack.

These are the minimum wages for Australians, meaning OP that you are younger than 17, therefore you are a casual employee. Under 16 years of age $5.71 At 16 years of age $7.34 At 17 years of age $8.96 At 18 years of age $10.59 At 19 years of age $12.80 At 20 years of age $15.15 let me tell you this, as a casual employee on public holidays you get double-time-and-a-half, so actually, instead of bitching about only getting $8.70/hour you are in fact getting paid $21.75/hour on those 4 days, do your research.

Quit. You can't put up with shit like that, not to mention the terrible wage... I get over double that on a standard day in retail and even more on public holidays - and I'm 17! ... Thank **** I live in Australia.
