So, on Friday, our manager got his ass reamed. He was told to step up and manage or the owner himself would come in and run things. The owner is a micro mgr to the extreme so most of us agree that we don't want that to happen. We have a staff meeting in the morning being hosted by Mr. Mgr. I guess we will find out if he is going to "step up" and by doing so, get out of his comfort zone and become an asshole or what. I see that as one possibility. Another possibility is nothing changes and then the owner steps in. I do have one strong ally in the store and he is in a position (ops mgr.) to help boost me if a new management position comes available. Me and Mr. Ops are the only two that actually do any work around the place. I get asked to do the manager's jobs a lot. Even other employees have noticed. Also, we have been notified that we aren't allowed to complain about a certain unfairness anymore. If we say one word about it, we can be fired. Frustrated as hell!
I am trying to stay positive through all this. I have a friend that is always promoting positivity, optimism, and encouragement. He posted over on that super popular site, a meme that states, " I will never turn down my ambition because someone else is uncomfortable with the volume." I love this. It says to me, keep on keeping on. Stay the course.
P.S. It is absolutely beautiful outside this morning on my back patio.
