Wal-Mart Hate? Or How Target is far worse.

General
So, I've had a really really fucking bad day today. Like the worst, I hate fucking doing this cause this is such an atypical "Furry" thing to do is to write a whole journal bitching about things, but hey I have the right to ramble and rant about something that has pissed me off so much to the point were I almost decked someone in the face.
SO...Wal-Mart hate...it's deserved, it really is I worked for that company for almost 5 years, got fired for bullshit reasons and I overall hated working there after several changes were made to my job location.
Well fuck that noise, that place is freaking GREAT to work for compared to Target. Jesus christ Target is so god awful, so unbelievably horrendous with it's treatment of it's employees that I can't seem to understand why anyone stays there and works there. I live a pretty independent life, I pay my father rent, I pay my own bills and buy my own food, I don't get any sort of allowance or anything whatsoever, so it's kind of hard to live when your place of employment feels the need to only work you for 12 hours spread across 3 days...not to mention that I am available for 5 of those days of the week mostly cause of school. Now your thinking, "But Aza, you've only worked there for so long surely you'll get more as time goes on." Which I won't I have talked to several people who have worked for target for YEARS, and it's the same case and it the biggest reason why their turn over rate is so bloody high.
Not only that, but I swear to god that company's standards are so fucking high that it feels like I'm working for a high class restaurant in the form of a retail store. I was hired and payed to work pretty much full time in electronics, but apparently I am not expected to give my full devoted attention to that, oh nonono I have to take my time to make sure I get all of that taken care of and then completly throw it out the window and pay attention to fucking Baby Supples and clean that area for the rest of the night. I understand helping out other area's to get them cleaned before hand but...clearly Target has hired a SHIT ton of people to clearly cover every area of the store with one person per area right? Thats why I don't get any hours? Nope. Not at all.
Also I'm going to keep this light, every single person I work with I have no way of relating to one way or another, all of them are super clean, super preppy, and I can't seem to find one quality in them that I can relate to, to even start a conversation and get to know them and like them. All the managers are jackasses and bitchs.
So...I'm going to stop here before I pop a vein. I'm just going to say this...I fucking miss my job at Wal-Mart...yes it was a shitty work enviroment, yes the overall surplus of customers there were anal jackasses but you know, at least I could make a living there, at least they WORKED me instead of having me come in at the dead of the night to spend 4 hours of my day that I could spending to do ANYTHING else, I don't even feel like I work, I feel like I'm just there to waste time for the day and get "Paid" and by paid I mean not at all cause I'm LOOSING money every day I come in to work there. I miss all the managers I did get along with, I miss all my co-workers whom I had a great time with most of which I still talk to on a regular basis, I miss so much from a place that seems to get so much hate, when in reality Target is so much worse. That is all.
