If you want to go home sooner, stop standing around and do something
I (27f) work at a small local food place. My other coworkers leave after the lunch rush, leaving me and a coworker (15f). I am scheduled until 3, she leaves whenever I decide I don't need her help anymore. I used to send her home once it was slow enough, but then noticed after she left that there was still things that needed to get stocked.
So recently, I've started making sure everything is fully stocked before sending her home. 659
You'd think she'd help instead of just watching me, but you'd be wrong. Everyday I walk around stocking and filling coolers and sauces and cutting veggies while she just...stands there. And then I say "looks like everything is done, you're good to go" hoping she'd get the hint. But she still continues just standing there.
Bonus context: she is homeschooled, stares at me all day, always cranky, has been cold to me ever since she found out I am an atheist and denied coming with her to a good Friday event, and will hide the tickets she wants to do under her arm while she washes her hands. 659
