confusions
I always try hard at everything I do even go out of my way to do it better than anyone just to get noticed but it never hsppens its like its expected of me .I get no appreciation .a simple thanks or man you did a great job .especaly at work .I have the store spotless when I close only to come back the next day to have the store trashed its like I'm the only one who gives a sh** but there excuse is all the time is we where busy .but there's times when I close by myself and I still manage to get everything done and then some so I don't like excuses because there is none and that's my attitude always proving a point . Iv gone to management they blow me off but I'm the closer so it has to be done all the cleaning and day shift does nothing just riding the clock like usual its like they know what there doing .charles likes to clean so we won't do anything he has to do it all I'm here is for a paychek .and that's what they think and I am tierd of playing the scapegoat rutine so what can I do can't quit need the job but I will not be taken advantage of either .

Well, let's step back for a second.
It sounds like you are a really hard worker and I can definitely understand the frustrations of keeping a place clean! When I was in high school and college, I worked in a supermarket produce section and always closed. I can definitely relate to your cleaning dilemma. Don't you just hate it when you mop the floor and people walk through it before it's dried?!
Anyway, there is something to be said about your work ethic. It sounds like you put pride and hard work into your job and making sure the place is spotless before you go home. That is to be commended and you should keep on doing it. Although nobody may tell you personally, you've probably already developed a reputation for having the place spotless every night. Just because someone doesn't tell you, doesn't mean it's not true.
You should never work with the expectation of receiving praise or thanks. Unfortunately, that's not how life works. People will take notice and your efforts will be recognized. Your co-workers may have a lot of respect for how clean you keep things, they may be too embarrassed to tell you because they're so messy.
My advice is to keep up your work ethic and don't worry about whether people are grateful or not. Unless you're expecting to work this job for the rest of your life, you will eventually find another job. The lessons you're learning here are very important; it is very frustrating to put in a lot of work to only to have it go unnoticed. However, it's even worse to have bad work constantly noticed because it can eventually get you fired. Your co-workers and managers may be a tiny bit jealous but your work ethic will get you far in life! Keep it up!
Best of luck!
