It's already a crazy situation with we're getting a new store manager, and she was thrown in with not much training and we're under staffed. I've been doing what I can to help out, but it's turning into about acting like assistant manager even if i'm paid a normal sales person's pay. I was told I was being interviewed at some point for assistant but that's all I know. ​ Like today I had to go in open to close on my normal key holder type duties, when I was counting up the drawer to start the day, the district manager called to see if I could ask another girl coming in to work a day she was supposed to be off, I told her don't be afraid to say no if she had anything going on.

That’s against policy.” I walked away. I was not about to deal with a lady who is willing to punch a screen. No thanks
