  • Let us go over what I was told off for today

    Today I got told off for the following.

    Not going to the morning meeting (I was scheduled an hour after it started)

    Not opening the store properly (again I was schedule for an hour after the store opened, the person who was on cash for that time did NONE of the opening choes but she wasn't chastised... just me)

    Paging over the PA for backup

    Answering back when I told the manager X who told me off for paging over the PA that manager Y told me to page over the PA...

    Asking on behalf of a customer for a replacement coupon because the customer has to ask before I offer it.

    Answer back when I mentioned to the manager that the customer had infact ASKED for the freaking replacement coupon

    Not calling for back up enough and/or not fast enough
    Calling for back up too much and/or too quickly

    Taking too long with customers
    Rushing customers to quickly

    Calling for a key turn too often (that one I literally have ZERO control over)

    Not coming back from my break when I was FINISHED my shift. I wasn't on break, I had finished for the day....it's not my fault the night coverage hadn't turn up yet and that I didn't question the person who said "Im here for your coverage" was not infact there to cover.

    Not getting a bag check...when I DIDNT HAVE A BAG! A manager chased me out to my car yelling and I held out my freaking empty arms with a "I didn't have a freaking bag" then I got told to adjust my attitude (when I was off the clock and at my car in the parking lot) because I didn't apologise for not getting a bag check I didn't need in the first place.

    3 shifts max left. 3 more... I can do that, 3 more.

        Geez, they're trying extra hard to make your shifts a living hell.

        Talk about mixed messages!

          the $150 or so I will make won't break me but it will make my budget extremely tight if I don't earn it.

          At this stage I am so zoned out. Everytime I got knocked I just said to myself "18 more hours, 18 more hours"

            I'd be tempted to tell the offending assmanager that it would totally be worth my time to follow up on a harassment complaint to corporate AFTER I left there.

                That's checkmate. You can't move in any direction. Except one. Tell the highest manager of the store exactly what you went through, and then declare you're quitting immediately.
                Customers should always be served . . . to the nearest great white.

                  At the same time, they're yelling at you is 0% effective. You're not going to work there anymore in three days, so (at least if it were me), it'd be fairly easy to shrug and say whatever to their behavior.

                    It really sucks that they're putting you through this micromanaging, passive-aggressive manipulative crap. I'd be seriously tempted to tell them where to cram their job; I have learned in my many years in the working world that no amount of money is worth having to put up with stress, bullying or other such bullshit.

                    and hot chocolate to you; I hope you can find something better very soon.

                          "Are you TRYING to make my last 3 sifts as obnoxious as possible? because I've been here X number of years/months and always do XYZ.... "

                          This is when it gets really fun to be snarky to mgmt - what are they gonna do - fire you? you're already out of there in less than a week...

                          Blow them off, ignore them and let them piss and moan themselves into a tizzy, meanwhile you sit back and enjoy the show (best if done with the Bored Now (tm) expression on your face)

                            The best way to do that is with a big bucket of gasoline and one of these.

                              I normally don't believe in burning bridges, but in this case, I'd also piss on the ashes afterwards.
