I am so sick of my toxic boss

My boss tried to change my shift last minute last night from 7-11 to 8-12. Now normally I'd be okay with the extra time to sleep in, but I had an interview today at 12 I scheduled way before this. Apparently one of my coworkers needs to be trained to open the store and this is “the only day she can do it”. We ended up on settling on me coming in at 8 and leaving at 11 and my coworker who's being trained to stay until 12. So my shift becomes 8-11, her's becomes 7-12. It gets better. Turns out when my boss said “this is the only day she can do it” she wasn't referring to the coworker bring trained. She was referring to another coworker who she wants to train her being available. Apparently, the coworker being trained literally works all week. Now why is that last…

We ended up on settling on me coming in at 8 and leaving at 11 and my coworker who's being trained to stay until 12. So my shift becomes 8-11, her's becomes 7-12.

It gets better. Turns out when my boss said “this is the only day she can do it” she wasn't referring to the coworker bring trained. She was referring to another coworker who she wants to train her being available. Apparently, the coworker being trained literally works all week.

Now why is that last part important? I'll tell you why. I open the restaurant tomorrow from 6:30-10:30, the trainee works 7-11. I literally could have just trained her then without having to lose an hour and my coworker staying an extra hour.

I've worked at this shop for 2 years, and I've trained at least 7 or 8 people in that time. But at some point, for some unknown reason, she does not trust me to train anyone anymore and insists on only one person to train people.

Bonus, that coworker my manager depends so heavily on, who has been there a year less than me, is quitting (good for them). And my manager starts bemoaning, “Oh, I don't know what I'm going to do. They're such a good worker.”

While I'm literally standing right there. Meanwhile, she has no problem yelling at me for not being psychic about her own deliveries that I have zero information on, has screamed at me in front of customers for being too slow literally seconds after clocking in, and has called me dumb to a coworker who was on the phone with her.

I really, really, REALLY hope I get the full time administrative position so I can leave her and her toxicity behind because I truly can't stand this level of disrespect, unappreciation, micromanagement, and just toxically unrealistic expectations that are always changing and could never hope to fulfill. Jesus fucking Christ I hate that this is the person who currently decides if I'm homeless and starving. She does not deserve the hard work that me and my coworkers put in everyday to keep her shop running.
