First of all, I manage a convenience store in a neighborhood that has earned me the respect of people to go to jail on my behalf. I keep it clean, stocked, and do things I ask my team to do.
Starting at the end of August, my boss and her boss (district and regional managers) thought it would be a good “experiment” to see what would happen if my store and another in a small town had no outdoor trash cans. No gas island and none outside my doors. No data, no info, no reasoning, no nothing. It goes how you expect and I keep sticking the trash can back out after a couple of weeks of taking pics of the trash. This has been going on for months. No updates, no asking for data, nothing.
Last night, my supervisor and her partner removed my trash can again. Her partner is also an employee at the same company, same position as me. So she had her remove my trash can and either way was a conflict of interest (boss/subordinate or making a non employee do your job).
I'm gonna get myself fired over a trash can because lack of communication, safety issues, and possibly violating a city ordnance.
Ever hear something this dumb? Lol
