Underpaid, Over Worked, Bleeding to death.

Up +22 Down

So recently I got a Job at a Fast Food Place which shall go nameless, even though it's not finger licking good. Gotta say, worst Job yet. The only reason I took it is because I was desperate. So on my third shift, I work a holiday, for which I am supposed to get time and a half pay. Hope they actually remember to do that. I'm told they have a hard time with ones and zero's over at accounting a lot, so the don't bother with us small people. Anyway, so I worked the most busy day yet, over 1800 orders in my shift time alone, and as we are closing,i'm told even though I worked a shift from 4PM 11:15, but i was told i was only scheduled until 10:30, so i wouldn't be paid for the extra 45 regardless of legality. On the same evening I cut my hand on a light cover that was to be cleaned. The cut was fairly severe, on the right side of my left hand, right in the space beside the 'L' of my thumb and forefinger, and was about one and a quarter inches long.I was unable to stop the bleeding with the bandages supplied by our first aid kit, but was told i "just had to finish mopping the floors, take the garbage out, and I could go home." That is of course, not being paid to do so. So i mopped up, but i had to make sure i went backwards, because the blood from hand was dripping off the mop handle. When I finished I was allowed to go home. The cut required 3 stiches and caused some minor nerve damage. Is it even worth the Minimum wage anymore?
