Tiring Some managers were bad but others were great

The pay is a joke, I don't even make enough to afford the provided health insurance. The holiday bonus is a store gift card. It's insulting. My schedule is so inconsistent that I can never predict my hours and I never work the same hours each day. Once you use your sick hours, you don't get any until the next anniversary of your hiring date. This means that you have to go to work sick or you will get attendance points. They schedule cashiers so thin that if one person calls out, the entire day is horrible and stressful. The whole "employee owned" thing is just a way to keep us from joining a union. I have never had any voice or power in my contract. They only give you the minimum breaks legally required, I have to ask to use the bathroom like I'm in grade school. My multiple requests to change departments have been ignored. It feels like upper management is actively sabotaging us. Once top of everything, my gender identity is ignored by at least half of my superiors, my deadname is publicly displayed on the schedule, and I was asked to remove my pronoun pins when corporate visits.
