Thank you silent and billy!

Silent, I don't have a human resources department here, it's just my general manager. What happened was I worked here for 7 months and was transferred to another state temporarily. When I got sent back here the cut my pay and a new management company came in. My pay was bad to begin with now it's even worse. Well with this new management company that came in about 3 weeks ago, they say that you have to be with their company for 6 months before you can qualify for insurance. So I talk to the guy and explain the situation on how my insuance had not kicked in because of one thing or the other with the transfer and lack of paper work. So he says that they will let me get insurance after 6 months of coming back from the transfer. I agreed since that was supposed to be January first but then he comes back saying nope, can't enroll until March because the enrollment was full until March?! So I really don't have much else I can do in this department but wait. I've been debating on leaving this job for months. Everything has gone down hill. The management was terrible so they hired in new guys, well new management is making things rather difficult and complicating things. For example, because we signed with the new company 3 weeks or so ago no one gets paid over time for Christmas or new years because you have to be with the company 6 months to get over time. They want me to work for 8 hours without a break and standing the entire time. They took my chair away so I'm supposed to stand for 8 hours behind a desk without going anywhere. So I take cigarette breaks (2 a day if I'm lucky) where I of course have to stand out side (no chairs or seats) then they make new rules that no employees can purchase anything from the restaurant or the store inside and since I can't take a break and can't have food or drinks at the front desk, can't sit down (although 1/2 the time I sit anyways, I have really bad "vertigo" or whatever, I get dizzy ALL the time.) so I'm supposed to go 8 hours no food or drink and no break to sit down or eat or anything, the most I get are cigarette breaks if those. It's a very tiring job and I'm tired of it. But I need a job so... What can ya do? If I start another job I just have to go another 6 months waiting for insurance
