(nwr)Mini Vent
Today is my day off. It is my only day off for a while because I had to fire 3 people this week. (2 of whom are good friends, one of them was/is even in my bridal party!)So I am off today b/c i had plans and for the rest of the weekend I am working Open to Close which for Fri and Sat is an 11 1/2 hour day.
I just got a call from my district manager today telling me that I have to come in for a few hours today as well.
I am so close to quitting it's not even funny.
Sorry... just needed to vent about that. Anyone else HATE HATE HATE their job? or if not the job, their boss???

That's the exact same situation. I'm the manager as well.
I hired my brother to replace the people i fired, he knows how to do all the paper work and the register, but it's a two floor store so i can't leave him there alone.
the DM was supposed to cover the hours for me, but as usual, he's refusing.

Oh my, I don't know how I'd handle having to fire a friend. I think I'd quit myself before having to do that!
