Well, we got a new manager about a month ago. She is HORRIBLE. She is the worst manager I have ever had. She treats us like crap, she doesn't listen to any of our suggestions, and she is just basically an idiot. Oh, she also has REALLY bad B.O. We have all been having problems with her since she got here. I have been having the most it seems. I don't try to kiss her ass, which doesn't go over well with her. Yesterday she was bitching at me, on the floor, in front of customers, and I lost it. I took my keys, threw them at her and told her I quit. I then left the store.
I feel quite good about it today. Yesterday I was a little upset. I have NEVER quit like that before, and never thought I would, but when you work for a company that doesn't support you, and for a manager that treats you like crap, there comes a breaking point. I hit mine. I told her off, and then walked out. Everyone was really actually happy about it. My parents and Dustin all said it was about time I did that. And everyone at work told me that they wished they could do it as well. Actually, the one co-worker that I really like, also turned in her notice today :)
So I am now going to start subbing for the Edmonds School Dist. as a teachers assistant/EA. I am actually pretty excited. I am also going to start my Real Estate school. I think this is a good thing. Now I can't go back to Nordstrom. I usually always end up back there, but I'm pretty darn sure that they won't take me back at this point. Throwing your keys at your manager and walking out usually doesn't get you a spot on the Christmas Card list.
Anyway, I am actually feeling pretty darn good about the whole thing. I needed to do something different, and this is definitely a step in the right direction!
Oh...and we got our Christmas decorations out today. Yes, I know it's early, but it made me happy so I don't care. Ok, I'm going to go sit on the couch and enjoy the decorations now!
