Hours cut too 2 days a week because I’m not getting enough reacquiring donations on my 4th day of work

This got me salty tbh. I started working at this “marketing company” I was told I would start as a manager trainee making $500 a week and after a year be promoted to a manager. While it turns out what we really do is stand outside of Walmarts, costcos and Sam’s clubs at the exit doing this dumb sales pitch to everyone who leaves the stores. We’re supposed to get the to do monthly donations and if they won’t do that ask them for $25 if they don’t do that just ask for whatever they can give in cash. However, the other people I work with act like scammers telling people they just need a dollar than charging $25 to their card or signing up people who don’t speak English with out telling them they will be automatically charged every month. My 3rd day there I raised over $300 dollars…

We’re supposed to get the to do monthly donations and if they won’t do that ask them for $25 if they don’t do that just ask for whatever they can give in cash. However, the other people I work with act like scammers telling people they just need a dollar than charging $25 to their card or signing up people who don’t speak English with out telling them they will be automatically charged every month. My 3rd day there I raised over $300 dollars in one time donations and they only gave me a 4 hour shift. Together the 3 of us are supposed to raise $1000 a day in an 8 hour shift so I was getting more 1 time donations than the rest of the team. Yesterday however, a lady who didn’t speak English came up. I asked her for ongoing donations but since she didn’t understand I made sure to explain it to her. After she did a one time donation I was yelled at and told I should have just asked for her credit card and signed her up for ongoing donations. After I was told I’m no longer needed. It pisses me off because it was my 4th day and I feel like since I wouldn’t trick people/lie (ex saying it’s our last day at a location when it’s not or saying we’ll take $1 and charging $25) I’ve now had my hours reduced to basically nothing and my boss called me asking to quit. I turned down other jobs for this because I was promised to be a manager at a marketing company and now I’m just mad af about the whole situation.
