Antiwork

Terrible management, inadequate training.

I work for a very popular home care store. I was promoted from associate to temporary seasonal manager. I was there every week until midnight setting up displays, putting our product. I was the only manager required to do it every week. Fast forward a couple weeks. Our store manager quits, the assistant who thinks she’s going to become store manager gets bypassed. One of our other key holders quit. I’m interviewed, they give the job to another person who constantly calls out, who I’ve never seen stay late etc. I’m already feeling discouraged. We have a GIANT month long sale after Christmas. I’m told I’m in charge of everything. How much training did I get? Maybe 30 minutes. Today I’m helping set up the store, can’t find any of the marketing or signs so I go in the back and the assistant manager tells me “I don’t know bud”…

Today I’m helping set up the store, can’t find any of the marketing or signs so I go in the back and the assistant manager tells me “I don’t know bud” blowing me off. 20 minutes later we open the store, she comes out of the back getting an attitude saying “why are there empty sign holders” causing a spectacle in front of customers, at this point I lose it and say I told you about the signs, I’m putting in my two weeks! Tired of being a scape goat. The stress is not worth 13.50
