Ok I have just heard some classics come through my emails about friends and colleagues who are having difficulties with cheap clients / employers. Some of my classics include:
1. Company who issued a shirt to my friend with a 6 inch tear down the back telling him to wear a jumper as it was winter.
2. Same company who refused me a uniform jacket citing "it's spring in 8 weeks". I refused a night shift as I had no uniform jacket and magically 1 appeared at the site for me to use that night.
3. Client who refused to buy milk, coffee, tea, or sugar for their staff.
4. Same company who limited toilet paper rolls to a set number each week.
5. Client who spent $2.5k on a Saeco coffee machine, $500 on a milk chiller but refused to spend $25/ week on milk for security staff working 24/7.
6. Company who used light globes from offices not used for the week.
7. Retailer who refused to provide milk for their staff but used some milk whitener whilst management enjoy all styles of milk
8. Retailer NLPM who was observed getting woods screws from a rubbish pile to save $$ (not me !!).
9. Client with a massive 300 space carpark used by 10 cars who attempted to charge security staff to park 4 cars per day.
10. Company who directed night security staff to clean executive bathrooms as they were not busy at night in their eyes.
So what have been your weird experiences ?
