Bad Job

Have you ever worked at place that treated their employees like you know what?  I'm talking about a job that, no matter how productive you were, treated you like you were the bottom of the barrel and that's where you were going to stay.  I have learned that it doesn't matter how you perform, you are not being judged by what you know, rather by who you know.  Employers no longer give increased salaries to the employee doing the best job instead they choose to give to the person who kisses the most ass.  I worked at a place where the customers loved and some of the employees adored me and I was fired anyway.  They didn't care about my personal situation, they just fired me.  I was out of work for over two months and I learned something from that situation.  I'd like to say that I thank them for firing me because that allowed me to find a better environment to work in but saying thank you to that bank would be a lie.  The bank, like many other jobs, has favorites.  I suspect that race has played a major factor in their favoritism, but that is my opinion.  I'm actually not upset with them (anymore) because I knew just a month into the job that their behavior was suspicious.  I speak for me alone when I say the bank I worked for was and is all about the money, not the people who help generate the money.  Maybe that's business, but to me it's bad business.  Well this is a brief synaposis of my thoughts...more details to come.
