The people working at Bombay in Clinton are so immature. I've worked there twice since I decided that I wanted to stay in Longmeadow. It didn't go over well. I expected some tension, but nothing like what is going on now. I went through both shifts with no one talking to me. Not even a hi. And now everyone is best friends with Jenn, when they use to talk about her and make fun of her. Now she can't do anything wrong. And if they do say something to me it's snippy. The store manager won't even say hi. Like I told Justin, it's slip your wrist depressing down there and I'd rather be hanging out with him and Julia than at Clinton. At least I wouldn't be spending 5-9 hrs working around people and not being able to talk to them. You can also feel the tension and negativity in the air.
All of this could have been avoided if the store manager had only done her job and taken action. I told Robin about Jenn giving me attitude a couple of times when attitude wasn't necessary. The first time I told Robin about it she said the Jenn was in the right. When has it ever been okay for a co-worker to give another co-worker attitude. The second time I told Robin about Jenn she shrugged it off. She gave me the impression that she didn't care about it. Yet because they are shorthanded and I had already said that I would transfer there I'm stuck there til they find help (which they are dragging there feet about). This can't be legal. They shouldn't be able to keep me there with the way everyone is acting towards me. One employee was rude to me. I went to my store manager about it. She did nothing. So I did something. I'm not the bad person. They are acting like I should have just dealt with her attitude. And if they were planing on doing something about it, they should have at least said, 'okay we will talk to her'. But when I'm given the impression that my complaint doesn't matter, than I will take steps to get away from the situation before it can escalate.
