I volunteered to help out another store yesterday, my day off. Yeah, getting paid for it didn't hurt the decision any. But the stupid idiots acted like they were doing ME a favor to have me there. The two of us from my store, one a shift manager, had to do almost everything, while THEIR shift manager listened to music, talked, and played around.
Then the witch who was 'in charge' of me kept telling me how I was doing everything wrong, and how our store wasn't a good store (implied) if I didn't know what I was doing. Then she tells me I have to empty out the refrigerator and the next shift would restock it for breakfast. Only, when I emptied the little refrigerator and put everything away she told me I was supposed to empty and restock, most of which I had just taken out. I kept pointing out I cannot empty the fridge AND restock at the same time. She kept insisting she told me correctly.
"but you told me to take out everything" "Correct" she replied. "But now you want me to return the things I just took out?" "You weren't supposed to take them out." "You told me to." "No, I didn't. I told you to empty it." I reiterated that 'empty it' means to make completely empty. She at no time said to take out only lunch items. She also told me at the beginning that the next shift would stock for breakfast. They don't even start breakfast until 4am, and this was at 9:30pm. She only wanted me to do the job for the next shift.
Did I mention that of the few employees they had of their own they let a couple go home hours early? While we worked out tails off? I pissed off the woman 'in charge' of me (heretofore called the witch) while I evidently didn't restock the refrigerator correctly (Yes, I was passive-aggressive) and then pointed out bluntly that I didn't have a clue where the cups and lids were that she wanted me to restock.
Not a single thank you for helping them out. Not a 'good job'. All I got was a 'you may leave' when my cash register drawer was counted. "You better believe I am leaving, I'm already 15 minutes past my ending time." And the witch had just told someone that her ride was there and she was about to leave, even though her relief wasn't there yet.
Never again will I work at that location. At least the other store they send me to occassionally thanks me and seem appreciative for the help.
To top off matters, it seems I'm going to be in management training with 'the witch'. Hmm, did the owner's daughter ask her specifically to go for management? I was. The witch was almost fired recently, and I can see why. She was even rude to the customers.
