I've worked at this grocery store for about a year and a half. I've been asking to move to grocery or become cashier for a year because I'm sick of getting carts in the rain and the heat. The best got was cashier cross training for no additional pay.
My managers said they'd try to get me moved but it's been a stalemate for a while. When I said I was quitting, she said I had a future there. What future? You won't let me get promoted or move departments. I have the rest of my life to be unhappy at a job, so I decided to just quit.
My mental health is more important than some minimum wage job, there are hundreds out there. I already had another job so I might just get more hours there. The managers actually stand up for their employees at my other job.
I deserve to be happy so I'm not going to put up with a garbage job just because I've stuck around for awhile. My retail job stressed me out too much and I just don't need that.
