Answer 1

Never stay somewhere (or with someone) that consistently makes you unhappy.

Answer 2

First of all you have my respect for even trying to work, your language stinks, might affect a promotion, plus it is usually full timers that will get the promotion over the part timers, You dad has a point, I think he is trying to show you when you are on your own you can not run away from a work problem to another but you have to beat your attitude/whatever there! at that work and by all means stay in school and LEARN makes these kind of decisions very minor ones. Good Luck

Answer 3

It is good you will stay in school. If you hate it there so much I would probably quit. I would suggest maybe looking for another part time job if you have time. Just think how good it would be if you could quit and tell Publix you got a better job somewhere else. It would satisfy both your mom and dad. Remember stay in school and before you know it; you will be the boss.

Answer 4

I think you should quit your job.
If you've been there for 2 years and haven't been promoted you probably never will. There are better jobs than Publix out there, but make sure that they are available to you by staying in school.

Answer 5

If you hate going into work and are trying to come up with reasons why you can't go in, or why you need to leave early.... then you really need to find another job and quit working at publix. Seeing that it's not going to be your "career" then I wouldn't worry too much about it. But you should try to leave on good terms. It just looks better later on down the road when they do a reference check.

Answer 6

Part-timers getting advancement? Full-time employees do the bulk of the work and should be considered for more pay and promotions.
I worked in a place where a new person would show up for a week. I would get called in on days off, too. For a year and a half, I received no raises, no benefits, it was just a part-time job. Finally got sick of it...

Answer 7

Those who are making more than you - are they part-time, too? If they're all full-time, then it's understandable. If not, then it sucks. What you need to do before you quit your job, find another one first. Basically, as long as you're getting paid is what your father appreciates most. And your mother, yeah, school first, then work, especially since you're still in high school. Also, when you quit, stay on good terms with your boss, even if you don't like him/her. 2 years work experience is a good piece for your resume or application. Good luck.

Answer 8

If you feel it's not worth continuing with it, I mean, if it's not helping you professionally as well as salary wise then it's better to quit and start looking for better job. Moreover, such favouritism atmosphere like your workplace can affect your future progression and can throw a very bad impact on your emotional life too. Hey, If you are a good and efficient person, you won't have any problem getting new job anywhere. You'll make it, don't worry. Best of Luck and God bless.

Answer 9

Leave and look for a better work environment. Try and wait until you have something new lined up. And advice for after you graduate from highschool and college. To advance your career look for jobs that offer training programs and tuition reimbursement for furthering your education, concentrate on leadership training and leading others. Those are the type of people that companies like to keep and promote up the ranks.

Answer 10

since you have another job, i would quit publix. you are still in school, so that is the main priority, and like someone else said, maybe you could then pick up some hours at Flaglar. Enjoy it while you can

Answer 11

Quitting establishes a wonderful pattern that you should maintain throughout your life. Apparently, your choice of co-workers as bed partners is as poor as your grammatical skills. You should either sleep with those in power to promote you or quit working two jobs and focus on high school.
