Department store counter working hours will not exceed

1. Suddenly transferring someone to a different position. Because of one instruction from the boss, one of us had to leave and work at a store farther from home, extending the time until getting off work by anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours, without any transportation allowance. I heard there might not even be overtime pay. On top of that, the working environment was worse than the original location. The intermediary, having received the instruction and feeling unable to do otherwise, told us: If no one volunteers, we can only draw lots, and there can be no further objections. In the end, it was only when the matter reached Human Resources that they said it could actually have been discussed with HR. If that was really the case, was it necessary for the original intermediary to tell us in a way that seemed intentionally coercive? She could have simply told us to discuss it with HR directly. Why wait until after the incident occurred for HR to take over a problem that had already erupted, and then tell us that we could discuss it with HR? Doesn't this also raise concerns about judging the matter only by its outcome? Oh, and during the discussion with HR, they also said that no one had ever reported anything like this before. The fact that no one reported it does not mean it did not happen. I really do not know what that statement was intended to imply.

1-2. I eventually received severance pay, but the application form for the promised government subsidy was never sent to me. I do not know whether it was accidentally omitted or... Although the boss apologized to me through another person, using someone else rather than apologizing personally itself raises doubts about the sincerity. Even if this is simply a method or approach, I did not feel any genuine intention to improve the company.

2. During the 9-hour workday, employees were prohibited from leaving the workplace during the 1-hour break and could only rest in the warehouse. But that hour really was not counted as paid time, was it? What right did they have to control us and require us to stay inside during our break instead of going outside?

3. During the interview, they interviewed someone with light-colored hair. After joining the company and dyeing it a different color, the supervisors made such a fuss that they even asked the boss whether the hair color was acceptable. Fortunately, the boss said that anything was fine as long as it was not fluorescent. The whole process went through at least two levels of management before reaching the boss, and the boss's response was relayed back through layer after layer. It was only after new-employee training that I saw the color version of the employee handbook. A clothing store actually had hair-color restrictions, allowing only six colors. Is the company the government of North Korea? Later, the boss explained that this was a very old rule and that it was not so strict anymore. In that case, should the employee handbook be updated? The whole process was making a fuss over nothing and completely absurd, and it left a very bad impression.
