Bail before the hail?

[Moonstar Akemi]

Okay so recently my work pants have been acting up and the zipper in my pants has been undoing itself with the button at the top of my pants coming apart as well. I've outgrown these pants, obviously. So anyway, the issue today is that at work, my pants did it again (I had a belt on which kept my pants from falling off lol) so when I tried to fix it, some bitch I work with decided to assume I was scratching the package and complained. Ironically, a customer saw it too. "ERMERGERD THAT EMPLOYEE IS SCRATCHIN' HIS BALLS," is what I bet they said lol.

Anyway, the whole situation was misinterpreted but I got written up anyway. I got sent home and my manager buddy kinda had a grim tone in his voice when he said that I'd be receiving a phone call from the boss. I assume this would mean I'm fired; so guys, my question here is:

Should I try to explain to my boss about the situation or should I take the chance to quit while I still have it?

Bail before the hail or no?

you couldnt ask for a new pair of pants?

[Blockzillahead]

Sounds like the employees there are roosterheads. But what happened? Did every store in your town run out of stock on pants?

If you can get another job instead from a different employer, then I think it's not worth trying to get it back from where you work. I do think that you should of explained what happened though, it's ridiculous how you were written up. I've seen in previous posts that you work at McDonalds (everyone who works at the franchise has no clue what they're doing, they have little experience, it's poorly managed, poorly kept, everything about it is low-quality). I wish you the best of luck.

Go up to him and say DWAG I HAZ FAULTY PANTS!!!1111


Then get another job (With the better pants.)

May as well mention that you were fixing your fly, just so you save face and your boss doesn't think you're a weirdo. I don't see why you didn't just tell them that when the situation was going on though. When the person told you to go home you should have explained.

Also, it's kinda ridiculous that they would have written you up for scratching your balls too. Like, it's not like you jerked off in a customer's sandwich or something, unless your hands were literally inside your pants I don't see the problem.

Don't bail. Explain your situation, and if the boss has any reason, he won't be a huge rooster face.

But if it's true and you do work at McDonald's, good luck. Everyone who works there things they are the stuff because they're the manager at McDonald's.
If you were to quit, you wouldn't get a final pay check. If the boss fires you, you get one last pay check for the week, so quiting to save yourself from something that might not be so bad isn't worth it.

Wait, if you don't get paid for quitting, then why the hell do they make you wait two weeks for your first paycheck?

Yes, I work at McDonald's and the management and the employees are stuffheads. I have one manager friend there and I tried to explain it to him. He was like "Yeah man, you gotta do that in the back." I can already tell that I'm going to get unfairly written up again and my boss is going to call it justified like the last time I got written up for a bullstuff reason.

The pants aren't provided; the shirt is. :(

Well dude, it's a food restaurant and I was making fries. A customer doesn't want to see the fry guy making their fries after scratching his balls (even though that's not what happened). Although I planned to change gloves immediately after doing so, I was already bitched at by this one bitch who (I swear to god) is out to get me fired. She even gave me the evil eye as I left the restaurant like wtf.

That's the plan.

I am going to leave the job no matter what because I've been mistreated ever since I started working there. For $7.50 an hour to make pre-made food that's absolutely disgusting AND receive stuffty treatment from most managers that're supposed to show leadership is just not worth it.

[RedGajin]

so if the pants arent provided why didnt you just...get new pants? or wear a different pair of pants? is there a pants drought in your area what is going on?

No, I just didn't have the time to get over to goodwill because my job kept working me on seriously loving awkward days.

I couldn't give less of a forget about whether or not the guy making my fries touched his pants material. The fact that it's in the vicinity of your rooster doesn't change anything. Once again, unless you actually stuffed your hand down your pants it shouldn't matter.

You made a valid point. I really wonder why people think that just because it's around your richard means it's contaminated or some stuff with your richard oils. LOL

The pants were just washed this morning, ironically.

[Dequire]

Quit, but not because you're about to be fired. Explain yourself, SHOW THEM the faulty pants as evidence, and then explain that they were freshly washed and clean as could be. And then promptly tell them to forget off when you get your next paycheck. And find a new, decent job. My advice, is Chipotle.

I would, but I'd rather just quit without making a huge fuss. Who knows, they might even go into the security cameras and look at it themselves and they'll be like "YOU ARE BLATANTLY SCRATCHING YOUR NUTS."

I swear, my co-workers are such idiots. I also have two paychecks after I quit, not just one. lol :(

Good sir, you are quitting. There is no reason NOT to make a fuss and tell them to stuff it in the process. And whether or not they have security footage of you allegedly scratching your nuts, evidence of your pants and how they constantly fall open will put that to rest. Hell, the footage might even aid your case.

Seriously. Consider it a "forget you, you're stupid" to both that customer and your manager.
