So...I get to work this morning, and I am immediately congratulated. Ok what the hell? I look at the manager of that store, and I say, "Um, ok" He says, "You don't know?" Ok so obviously I don't know, or I wouldn't have looked some dumbfounded when he congratulated me. Apparently my district manager has made a decision to promote me without my knowledge or request. This sounds great right? Well I can't decide if I am happy about it or not. Don't get me wrong it is more money...supposedly. So here is the deal. I am currently a cosmetic supervisor. I work Monday through Friday in the morning, and I have weekends off. My husband just took that pay cut, so he wouldn't have to work weekends without being asked. I have decided that it just isn't in our cards to have weekends off together. Ok so anyway, my DM called me the other day to tell me that he is going to send me to the store right by my apartment to work for a month as a Shift Supervisor (I'm already technically classified as that). What I was informed of today is that it is a trial run because he wants to promote me to an assistant manager. This would be fabulous, BUT that means I will have to work nights and weekends again! Ugh! I thought I was finished with that! I keep trying to tell myself that this is just going to put me into an opportunity where I can be promoted to a Store Manager. Then after that I can be promoted to a DM or Human Resources Manager (<----That is totally what I want!) I just don't want to have to go through all of the grunt work again! I was an assistant before they demoted all of the assistants in TN, and then I moved out here and got this totally cushy cosmetic supervisor position. My only problem is that I am topped out at my pay, and I cannot make anymore in that position unless they change the top out pay! Why can't they just go ahead and promote me to a manager (Was 7 years as an assistant or shift supervisor not long enough?)?? This would put Jack and me in a perfect position to start talkin' babies.
I would also just like to add that all of my blogging buddies are putting me to shame. They are posting way too much! :)
