Antiwork

I have had the same job for 15 years and have been looking for a change. I interviewed today and was shocked by what was expected for the pay offered.

I interviewed for national chain retail store general manager of a single location. I am qualified. They offered me the job. They offered $57k and one week of vacation after being there a year. For that pay they expected me to run the front end and back end of the store and keep the store fully staffed with minimum wage workers who have to stand all day on cement floors and stock shelves kneeling on cement floors. They expect me to work 6 days a week with no time off and to cover when people don’t show or there is a staff shortage. So that turns what equates to $27 an hour to probably $15 an hour because it’s a salaried position. I laughed out loud when they said that I would have the opportunity to earn a quarterly sales bonus of up to $950. Wtf. Is this a shit…
