McDonalds Hours Cut

Fuck all these major corporations dude. I'm working at Mcdonalds for almost half a year now and I'm doing everything I'm supposed to. I don't argue, I don't act like a douche to people, and customers like me. I even ask to be trained on other stuff and they only have me clean. They cut the shit out of my hours and I don't know how I'm gonna pay this months rent. I went from working 20 hours a week down to 7. I know I need to look for another job but I haven't found anything yet. I don't know what it is dude, I heard a few employees talkin' saying it's because it's summer and they hire all these teenagers to cut costs and pay. I'm just upset about all this shit, I don't know how I'm gonna eat and stuff.

But really, you should go talk to your boss about it. Squeaky wheel gets the grease!

I do and he's all liek, "Oh we cut hours during the summer" He sounded serious but managers are managers you can't tell what they're thinking 'cuz they're so brainwashed by society and how it should be they can't be human and tell ya "You suck at work, if you wanna get better; here's what you do." Instead, he just cuts conversation and walks out. I asked him if it's something I'm doing wrong, or that it's something I'm not doing and he's all like "no" That I'm fine, I told him I work my ass off and he was all like "I know you do" but maybe, I'm not good enough for their retarded corporate regime.

Herb is always a nice thing to have. She rubs my back when no one else is around

shitty situation, but not the end of the world. trade shifts with people who are calling out. beg people to trade you shifts. PAY THEM a couple of bucks if tahts what it takes.
if they don't let you pick up shifts, then start stealing products - that way you'r ereceiving additional reimbursement

At least you've kept your senses, because that other advise that was given is awful advise.
What area are you in? Do you have any other marketable skills and job/work history? I'd suggest linkedin, but I doubt it would be helpful if you're looking for another fast food job.
Have you thought of picking up a trade? Like becoming an apprentice? Might want to explore that, a lot of times you get paid and you train with a master for a year or two. I did it as a stone mason and made $15 training, but that was pre-recession,
Good luck!

It could always be that McDonalds is losing business because people are choosing not to slowly kill themselves anymore. I, for one, would regard that as a huge positive. Not great for you, but to be honest, that job won't exist forever, and you will get better pay and be more appreciated elsewhere. Just gotta search enough and you'll find that elsewhere.
