Antiwork

I work for a phone company and it’s making me extremely unhappy.

I work for a certain phone company that I have been with for like 3 months now because I was desperate for a job being a full time student and needed money. For a while it was great.. I got paid for just doing trainings and then I finally got to where I could sell phones and help people fix their phones and do what they need! It make me feel like I was doing something right and it felt good to help people navigate their way to getting the best bang for their buck. Well fast forward to now… we only have 2 people working at the store which is me and my boss. My coworker quite due to some reason, which left me working full time hours for part time pay and no benefits(which tbh aren't really benefits I need rn considering I am fortunate enough to have…

Well fast forward to now… we only have 2 people working at the store which is me and my boss. My coworker quite due to some reason, which left me working full time hours for part time pay and no benefits(which tbh aren't really benefits I need rn considering I am fortunate enough to have more than what I need) which I didn't mind for a while because I was getting paid 15 and hour for a while then back down to 8.50 plus commission after a couple of months. Here's the problem now- I am working full time hours, not being able to live my life like I want until I actually have to start working a complete full time job(which will be fine with me because I won't be going to school hopefully then and it won't affect my grades), for part time pay and I was told today we have to to be selling people accessories or it goes against us in the long run, listening to my boss bascsically admit to not fixing a phone just so they get a sale in because if we do not neet box quota we get in trouble…. this job is too much stress for me doing a full time and full time school. It's ridiculous and I dont wanna be involved with people that are just basically scamming people… which is probably not everyone and i really do believe this company is good…. but not something id want to be apart of due to circumstances. Am I wrong for being upset about this?

I apologize for formatting I have a headache and I'm on mobile.
