Yesterday I finally had it with my job. I put my two weeks notice in.
I can't believe that they'd treat me so poorly while treating the manager (so called at least) like a god when I bust my butt 60+ hours a week and he can come in when the schedule is already posted and tell the "supervisor" I am taking vacation, I need it and she's fine with that!
I finally snapped last night. We didn't get out of there until after 2:45 am and we close at 10. I told her that I didn't want to close anymore ( most of the 5 other managers don't ) and she said "well, we will talk about it tomorrow."
Well tomorrow came today and I snapped, I had a migrane and couldn't get out of bed, I called a friend and bawled telling her what happened this past three weeks and how I felt she told me to call in. I told her I couldn't since I only had a half hour before I needed to be there. But when I collapsed in the kitchen, I called my DH and told him I couldn't go in, he said to call in and quit. The stress is horrible. I called in and told them I wouldn't be there, a half hour before I had to work.
I think I might have had a panic attack also. I was in tears for an hour after I got off the phone with work. My head felt like it was splitting in two. But I managed to fall back asleep until 8 tonight. During that time, the supervisor calls me telling me that she can offer me a lesser paying position working only days and I countered with why can't I work days making what I do now, to which she said, salaried managers are EXPECTED to close at least twice a week, ok now if this is true, when does she, and why don't the other 5 managers we have? Granted they are not all salaried managers, but there are two that make managers wages doing crew jobs, how insane is that?
I hardly eat, I barely sleep, I am stressed all the time, I've lost 10 pounds in two weeks, I can't concentrate, I dread going into work, I cry all the time from stress and exhaustion, It's unreal and she's treating me like I'm just the worst employee she's got. I've been there 17 years and I granted I've felt stressed and angry before, but I've reached my breaking point. I can't do it anymore. I actually threatened a crew member with bodily harm. I'm not that type of person, but I guess pushed to my limits, I am.. I feel stupid and defeated. I should've gotten another job first, but I just can't stomach working there anymore then I have to. I feel sick thinking about working tomorrow because it's a closing shift. I know I won't be out of there until after 1 at the earliest. But I have to finish out my two weeks. (not that they will rehire me. but it's for me not them)
Now for the advice part, do you think I did the right thing by leaving? Or should I have stuck it out and seen if it got any better? So far it's proven to not be getting better, just worse. Any advice on this would be great, I've been there 17 years, I'm kind of lost...
