The supervisor surnamed Chuang in Taichung is absolutely outrageous.
They called me several times on LINE outside of working hours.
I was riding to work and didn't answer.
When I had just arrived at the counter, the morning-shift staff said the supervisor was looking for me.
I called back using the company phone, and as soon as they answered, they flew into a rage, asking why I hadn't answered and saying I was hard to reach.
What the hell—why am I required to answer the company phone outside of working hours?
And what gives our building manager the right to interfere in our company's affairs?
They called us in for a meeting to question why our sales were poor,
asked us whether we were not being proactive,
and told us to watch ourselves.
Sales are poor because hardly any customers come to our floor to shop.
Is that the counter staff's problem?
Your department store should be examining why there is no foot traffic.
Instead, they went to the supervisor and told them that we weren't working proactively,
which caused our sales performance to become even worse.
It's these kinds of petty people who drive a wedge between others.
The supervisor visits our counter less than once a month,
yet also believes what this petty building manager says
and berates us wildly without distinguishing right from wrong.
They even find excuses to make things difficult for us,
telling us to resign voluntarily.
The company won't pay severance,
nor will it provide a certificate of involuntary resignation.
This supervisor is truly outrageous.
Also,
every month when we return to the company for a meeting,
our general manager,
believing that sales of one of the company's products are unsatisfactory,
asks us why we don't support our own products more.
For example:
we can buy sportswear to wear to work.
When customers see that it looks good, they'll want to buy it.
WTF.
Do you think we make a lot of money?
And we still have to buy sportswear costing 1,000–5,000 each.
A complete outfit (top/pants/socks/shoes/jacket/base-layer compression shorts...etc.)
do you know how much that costs?
And we have to rotate what we wear.
And they still have the nerve to ask: "Why don't our own employees show a little support?"
Is the general manager some kind of privileged elitist?
