Exclamation How can my job suck so goddamn much? Who has a more stressful job here?

I'm constantly fucking angry and I think I'm losing my mind.

The problem is that we have like 3 phones on busy friday and saturday nights, a handful of people working, and a shitload of angry customers throughout the entire fucking day. This is the reality of domino's behind the scenes, it's the worst of all the food franchises to work for because we handle both deliveries and carryout.

On busy nights your deliveries will take an hour and a half to two hours. Yes, it's true! The "You got 30 minutes" promo is responsible for 95% of our stress. With all the angry women and teenagers calling me, I feel like the world's biggest deadbeat dad.

My manager is a shithead idiot liar who only wants to screw people over whether you work for him or not. His boss is even fucking worse: a loudmouth, spineless coward who asks everyone under him to do the impossible then gets pissed off if they can't.

I only have three co-workers who are tolerable, the rest I either could not give a fuck about or outright hate.

How many more months should I give before I quit, so it doesn't look too bad to future employers? I know nobody expects you to stay at a job for many years in this generation, but what's the acceptable minimum amount of time to spend at one place? Especially a shitty part-time place?

They do not pay me enough for this shit. Even if they did pay more, I'd opt for less pay if it meant less stress.

Working in food service is arguably the biggest mistake anyone can make as a job option. Honestly, what the fuck were you thinking?

I have worked with food before -- although not serving customers directly, thankfully -- and I will never do so again unless I am absolutely forced by economic necessity.

If you're constantly angry and not getting paid enough why the hell would you stay there?

Seriously, the world is filled with decent jobs, there's absolutely no reason to stay in a place you don't like.

I'm going to college full-time and I need to build up some funds in my savings account. I've been looking for a job at many places but I never had the right hours or experience. (Either: "Aw man, you can't work full-time/weekdays? I can't hire you" or "You don't have enough experience.") One manager told me that all the people who worked there had NO higher education but a bunch of jobs listed, and I was the opposite so I couldn't be hired.

I'm not about to blow money on trivial shit with the paychecks from this job. All of it's going towards improvement like good clothes (business clothes, heh), finding a new job, better furniture, and books.

Before I leave, I need to make sure I can immediately go to the other job because I don't want to be unemployed while looking.

Like M^2 said, there are plenty of other jobs out there. Why people are satisfied with minimum wage/shitty environment jobs is beyond me.

I guess where you end up is determined by the amount of effort you're willing to put in.

I'm a full time college student with two jobs. One is career based, the other at Pizza Hut (why the fuck did you go to Dominos?). The "not having enough hours/experience" excuse is bullshit. You do have enough hours, you're just not willing to give up your free time. And I think A LOT of places would prefer college students over High School drop outs. Shows you have determination/drive, and at least the bare minimum of brains.

Something I pass on to all my friends younger siblings, etc, is that jobs that are not career based are not worth the fucking stress and commitment you put in. You don't like it, leave immediately. You have nothing to lose and far more to gain.
