Hi all,
In November I accepted an inside sales role, the company I work for has an office and a warehouse at the on-site location (this is important). Because I am the youngest in the office by about 15 years, I have been “volunteered” to do stuff in the warehouse. No big deal as they only occasionally had me help the warehouse when I first started. However, last week someone in the warehouse called in for family reasons. I was “voluntold” to fill her position because no one else is “capable due to age” to do the work. The entire week, said person was gone and I was working by myself with a 5 minute crash course of how to do her work. By the end of the week I had to force myself to go to work and try my best to not quit on the spot. Fast-forward to today, the person is still gone and work is expecting me to go back to the warehouse to do the work. I am not sure if I should walk out or tell my employer I will not work in the warehouse when I was hired to do sales. Please give me advice on how I should handle this because I am not sure if I’m thinking clearly.
