I get called into my managers office just a few minutes ago and I am told that a higher up came in the store last week on Thursday (I came in during a snowstorm) and saw me on my phone and they reported it to other higher ups and my manager. We had gotten a total of 12 customers that day so there was nothing to do. Anyway this was just before I was to leave so I was probably checking the time or something. So this new DM we got had gotten wind of this and told my store manager to write me up on a final notice.

Saw this in a job ad: 'This job isn’t for everyone, or just anyone. The pace is fast, expectations are high and resources are always constrained.

And you’ll do it smiling (most of the time) and people will love you for it. Eventually.'
