I was hired about a month and a half ago. Since our initial interview, I haven’t seen my boss in person. They’d call occasionally to see how I was doing and speak with the person training me. The person who trained me recently left to tend to a family matter and has no intention on returning. I’ve been running the store by myself ever since.
On Sunday, I contacted the boss to tell them that our drawer was empty and since it was Sunday, I couldn’t go to a bank to resolve the issue, but that I would on a week day. They never responded and never sent a schedule for this week. The mail man has been stuffing letters under the shop door and it’s obvious to the community that the business has been somewhat abandoned for the past week.
Mind you I’ve been training a new employee despite being new myself, and my commission rate is 1% of all sales. Meaning I make next to nothing while the boss travels the world and ignores any basic request for help. They truly couldn’t care less.
Back to the job search. Can’t believe the world is full of so many entitled irresponsible selfish people. I’m devastated once again, as this is just one of many sneaky, lying bosses I’ve had in the past five years. The mental toll it takes when someone messes with my money is significant. I need stability. I’ve been injured at a previous job with no support from unemployment services. I can’t believe this shiny new job ended up being another loss. I’ve done corporate, I’ve done small businesses. I’m tired.
Wishing you all well. Thank you
