So seeing the opportunity I decided to ask if I could take on the cook role, working 6a-3p. The new manager agreed and I started being the cook regularly (5 days a week).

For context anyone who knows me knows that I am not bossy at all. I hate telling people what to do. I was confused about the situation and tried to explain that if I sounded that way i didn't mean to be. However the manager decided that I wasn't going to be allowed to be the cook anymore as punishment and put me back on closing permanently. I don't understand at all what is going and im honestly pretty upset about it. Yearly evaluation is coming up soon too so I'm dreading that. Anyway, rant over
