My bosses!

Some of the things that have happened lately. I was in Denver a couple weeks ago and either ripped a filling out or broke a chunk of my tooth out and my boss Rick gave me crap about wanting to take the day off to get it fixed the next day. My appointment was at 11:00 am and he was mad because I was not able to go out to work with my foreman the next day because we travel all over and it would be to far to drive and come back to later. so I ended up canceling the appointment and just dealing with it. I was furious that he would give me crap about taking some time to get my teeth worked on. That just does not seem right. There are a few more things that he has done to just make my life hell. I try to get done the work I am asked to and try to give plenty of time in advance of when I need to take off. Crap I tell you that when I do want to take off I get crap about it. I have done nothing but bust my butt for this company. That is just the way that I was raised. Maybe I am replaceable but you would think that all the money that they put in us they would try to get you to stick around. My other boss came in one morning and asked me if I had anything to tell him. For the life of me I could not think of anything that I had done wrong so I told him no. Then he said do you have a ticket that you need to tell me about and I said not that I could think of. Thinking of a ticket I might have gotten in a company vehicle. He then said that it was a month ago and I started to think I did get a speeding ticket in my personal vehicle and I said I got a ticket then but it did not affect anything with work so I told him it was in a personal vehicle and he said that if it was at work or not I needed to let him know. That bad thing was is there are plenty of other guys who have never been asked that or put on the spot like me who have been here longer and they could not believe that.I have been called in or talked to various times about other things and I have just let them go and forgot them not even bringing this up and have forgotten what all has been brought up. This is something that I ignored because I thought nothing about until it had been done many times and old talks have been brought back to memory so I am writing this down more venting but to keep record of so that if it gets worse it can be taken care of. I have even went in and talked about things that I may need to improve on and what I would like to learn and it is sad that I have to talk about it before they come to me other than to complain about something that I have done wrong but really does not effect me at work. I am honest and work hard. I rarely complain about anything I go to work and so what is asked of me. But when I feel I am being singled out about things that others are doing and they never get called in about it, it really starts making one think. Hardly do I ever see them outside the office and they still have things to complain about. I never threw a stink about when one guy almost killed me literally and nothing was done about. They did not even call me in to ask my side of the story. That really torks me off. If it was someone else maybe they would have treated the situation differently I do not know. But if I were dead maybe there should have been something done about it. They always say at our safety meetings how we should be safe and take precautions but when something goes wrong and could end in death it was talked about briefly and nothing more was said. it is very frustrating that that would happen. I have held many jobs and if I or someone else was doing something wrong in those jobs we were let know of what we were doing wrong and it was either fixed or we were let go but at least we were all talked to not just me. Another thing that made me mad is that a year ago I hurt my back on a pole at hotline school and I did everything that I needed to do and if it was serious or not the only way that they said that I could get it checked out was to drive six hours back to akron to get it checked out . How was I to get home with as much pain as I was in. Plus they have this rule that if you get hurt and you are off of work for an injury that you have to go to a place called work steps and do all kinds of tests to make sure you are well enough to come back to work. Well I went to the doctor did not miss any work and they were going to tell me to leave just because the doctor said that there were a few restrictions that I had none affecting me to not do some kind of work. Well they let me work but I did not leave work for my injury and was fine but I still had to go to work steps even though I was told that I would not have to go because I did not miss work due to my injury. I jumped through the hoops and went back to work. But they did not even care about me only covering their own butts. except for all the many other things that they have done to single me out of the rest of the employees. I understand fully that there are things that as a company they must do to cover themselves but lets not get over board on singling out one person. I have made mistakes and so have others but to make me do things against their words seems like discrimination to me. It is so bad that many have quit due to all of the bull crap that is going on here. I am still here maybe because I am stupid but from now on I am going to keep record of this in my blog that way I have solid evidence of what is going on so that maybe this can be corrected. I do not know if it is because I did not grow up here or not, but any time that I am needed I go and am always ready and willing to help out. I think that they take advantage of this and so not put in their own minds of what I have done. They only look for the bad things in my mind and from what I hear from other people. This is not a new development for these two bosses. But one should not have to take this from and employer. If I were a female working here I guarantee that they would be more careful but in my mind everyone is equal in a workplace and everyone should follow the same rules and be treated equally. When i think of more I will be sure to write it down so that I have record and we will go from there.I have never once heard from a boss that I am doing good and to keep up the good work. It is like when I got my evaluation I was told meets expectations but on some of the things that I was exceeds expectations but was told by Rick that he did not put that in my evaluation because if I heard that I would slack off and not be as productive at the work that I was doing. That is wrong in my mind because if I was told that it would give me more incentive to work even harder.Sorry that I am boring you with my venting but like I said before I have to have record of this somewhere. Plus they say that I drive to fast and well I am told this by two others that have lead feet to and drive fast. I have slowed down and am more careful but it keeps being brought up. Which I think is not right either even though that was in the past. But rules are there for a reason and not for only a handful of people but for everyone that works at the company!!! That is enough for tonight but I will continue as more discrimination's present themselves. This was long but I had a lot on my mind and made time to finally take note of all the crap.
