Karma will be after you. I am certain.
I have spent the last two years dedicating myself to companies who would rather abuse their hard workers than reward them for their efforts and work ethic.
I was so in love with my job. If it were high school I would have been the over-achiever. I was the geeky employee who spent off hours researching products to better satisfy customer's concerns. The turnover rate astonished me. For retail, this was heaven. I couldn't understand why people quit so abruptly...the job was fun! And the pay was more than anyone could ask for in a retail sales position. But with a high turnover in everything including the management, it was no surprise that things went downhill eventually.
I did the company a favou. I filled in at the customer service counter to 'cover for breaks', which turned into a permanent placement. With repeated requests to be put back into my original position, which I was listed under in the schedule, nothing was changed. Others after me who requested transfers from customer service were given just that. My stress levels and enjoyment dwindled. Repeated lies from the management, specifically the new manager who was trying to maintain control over the situation by lying out his ass and denying such when I repeatedly proved him wrong, drew me to the conclusion my time could not be wasted anymore..and I was off.
I thought it heaven sent when I snagged another job the first two days of searching and I could barely believe it when I was offered the Assistant Manager position after being there less than a month. Finally, I felt I was with a company that truly appreciated my dedication. The supervisor who noticed my excellent work ethic went on maternity leave a few months later and was replaced with High School drama. I trusted her but she was too concerned with getting ahead and holding a grudge. She was my superior and several years older. Her maturity level and professionalism: that of a seven year old. I had seen, and she had also openly admitted that she lied on a regular basis. She was a little angel in the eyes of Head Office. When I called her for advice about a stressful situation with a male from Tech Support she suggested to file an anonymous complaint. Only it wasn't as anonymous as she insinuated. Head Office called to disagree with the complaint and yelled at my supervisor, who said nothing about her suggestion on the matter or that she approved the complaint that was sent. Instead, she yelled at the Manager, who in turn yelled at me. I was fired because of this betrayal.
Thank God for post secondary education and my ability to attend. I will never be that bitter bitch who betrayed me.
