Management woes
Having my own store is amazing. Things are coming together the way I want them to. My minions aren't rock stars, but some of them have potential to go far in the company. Some of them I'd really like to see move up, but they have to prove it first.
Being sick and having no ASM sucks. I want a day off to recover, but I'm working all 7 days this week. I feel miserable. I have to suck if up and deal, because I have a midnight release tonight and then need to turn around and open in the morning!!
Being a manager isn't fun and games. It's exhausting! The end results are really what make it amazing. The people you have at your store make it amazing.
There is still so much organizing left to do at my store to get it up to my standards, but it's almost there. My store is also very old and in dire need of repairs, so I'm hoping I can get a budget to finally get those repairs done.
It's definitely not what I expected, being a manager, but I'm getting used to it.
