My coworkers and I were working out of town and when we work out of town we have to ride share . Anyhow the 2nd day of work one of our co-workers was late she was supposed to meet at the car at 3am. So at 3:18 we left for work. Halfway to work our lead calls us and tells us to turn around and go pick her up. Now on Friday the one car was out of gas(which I had gas $) so everyone rode to work with our lead. I get a knock on my room door, saying c'mon. We are leaving NOW! It is 2:50am and I said give me 2 minutes I am using the toilet I will be rt. Out. I ran out when I was done and they had left. But not only did they leave me they had the key to the other car. So I call them up and said I need the car key! And got told well that's not me. And the phone disconnected . So I ended up missing a days wages. This sort of thing happens a lot to me at this job. They go out of the way for someone else, but I am shit out of luck in the same type of situation. I don't know what to do?

on a different day a co-worker physically threatens me and throws a racial slur at me and I am the one who reported the situation yet I got given a. Ultimatum to deal with it or get sent back home. I love my job but the double standard crap is killing me.
