High salary
For those planning to join Oasis Restaurant, as well as those who are still considering it or already working there, I would like to share the following experiences:
1. At the beginning of each month, working hours are settled. Be sure to check whether your clock-out times match the records provided by the company. If they do not match, do not sign. You must protect your own rights. The work is hard, so do not think that 30 minutes or an hour each day is insignificant. Once you sign, even if you later file a complaint with the labor bureau, the labor bureau will not be able to help you. The company asks you to sign precisely because it knows about this loophole.
2. Do regular weekly meetings not count as working hours? Any policy that conflicts with labor regulations is unreasonable and can be appealed.
3. I think it is great that the company organizes many charitable activities. I also agree to participate in my own time and do my part for the world and the planet. However! Basically, after participating, you must rush to the store to work (a 10-hour shift, including 2 hours of break time). But because of understaffing, even during break time you must be ready to get back on the floor and help at any moment (perhaps handling the register, seating guests, or preparing food). We can only hope that staffing becomes stable and sufficient. Otherwise, for stores currently short-staffed... the pressure is immense, creating a vicious cycle. You need to eat well and sleep well before you have the energy to do the things you want to do.
4. I recommend not citing personal reasons when resigning. If you do, supervisors may start attacking you (I would rather not say much about the content of the attacks), since this is only my personal experience. One example is that when I resigned, my supervisor directly said to another supervisor in front of me, “I told you from the beginning that we shouldn’t have hired them.”
If you are currently employed and planning to resign... you can see for yourself.
5. Protect yourself. When appropriate, remember to make audio or video recordings.
Also remember to photograph your clock-in and clock-out times, including the date and time. (I do not know whether this is illegal, but if Oasis Restaurant has a proper and aboveboard corporate culture, I think it would not be afraid of these things.)
Finally, I want to say this: I have consulted the labor bureau, and unreasonable practices can be reported! Workers’ rights depend on us standing up for them.
Keep going~ Especially to those Oasis colleagues who are still employed.
