I was working the computers in a warehouse for 5 years, loved it until my manager got promoted which promoted the supervisor. Supervisor and I were buddy buddy until their promotion got to their head. Then I was micromanaged, talked to a lot about coming in at 7:00 (scheduled at 7:00) and should be there 30 minutes early (not clocked in) like everyone else. I would get talked to if I came back from my break at 16 minutes instead of 15. Well because of this I was suddenly not being efficient enough… even though I’ve never had this problem in the years prior.
After walking out, HR asking me to come back because it turns out I was actually an asset to the company (go figure). I was offered a job with another department under a new manager. Well they let him go today because of “realigning positions”. Guess who my new manager will be, yup the one I had problems with.
I’m definitely not staying now, but my problem is I’m not sure what I want to do. Obviously I can’t go without an income. Which sucks because I genuinely liked this position and my last position.
I make $25/hr with no degree. Seems like every job listing requires a degree for that pay. Which fine if I have to go to college I will but I want to know what I want to do before throwing $ down the toilet.
