New manager accuses me of stealing!
Ok, so we have this new assistant manager, Rosemary. She looks like a very nice 50ish woman...but beneath that facade she is a monster. She is always giving orders and being condecending...which you expect from a manager, but she has only been here a week...so, not a good way to be when you are trying to get staff to respect and listen to you.
Anyway, on with the story.....
I served this lady today and noticed that she had the same color wallet as I have. I even said to her "I almost have the exact same wallet"! She was very nice and about 5 minutes after she left, I found that she had dropped her wallet on the stairs. So, being a nice person, I held onto it and I let the management (including Rosemary) know that I had it downstairs and to let her know where it was if she came in looking for it.
So, an hour passed and I looked in the wallet to see if there was a name or phone number so I could contact her. I noticed that she had a Natwest bank card. Natwest bank is 2 doors down from my shop, so I was going to take it to the bank to let them know, and ask if they could inform her that we had her wallet, as I know how it feels when you think your wallet is gone. As I am about to leave, she calls. I leave the wallet with the manager and go on break. When I get back from break, I am told that she came in and said to tell me "thank you" because many people wouldn't have held onto it and been honest. That made me feel nice!
I typed all this to show you guys that I am a nice person and never had anything but honest intentions.
So, we are all about to leave and Rosemary says she is going to bag-search us...you can probably guess where this is going......she looks at everything in my bag and right before I close it she says in a not-so nice accusing tone "isn't that the customers wallet"?! She says this in front of everyone too.
Where does she get off? She has only been there for a week and she doesn't trust me? I have never been anything but nice to this woman and everyone else I work with, even though I pretty much hate all of them. I couldn't believe she asked me that! Did she REALLY THINK I would say "yes" and that she would have "caught me"? And why would I gladly open my bag for her to see the "stolen wallet"...why would I steal it after showing it to her and my manager?!!!!!
So, I am going to tell the manager tomorrow (cause Rosemary is off) that, when I am next in on Friday, I want an apology from her. Face to face. I had better get it, or I am going to ask her why she said it and not be so nice about it.
I have been through hell with this horrid company (I really want to tell you guys all about it...I have had to go to the union and have had 2 grievences out on my manager and area manager....only to be shit on....it is such a long story, maybe I will post it someday), and she is aware of it. I should be the last person they suspect. I can't wait to get a new job!
