scream Warning! Rant ahead! stressed

I don't even know where to begin. I can't tell if my stress is work related or school related.

Let me just start with work.

Long story short: one of my sales associates is going to school for business management and really wants a managers position. What better way to give him one than to step down, right? Right. I started school last month. This should have been the hint that I was to no longer be manager at the start of school...

WRONG! I am still a manager. Even though I changed my availability two weeks before school even started so I can step down, I still don't even get the respect to even do my homework. I have failed at least two tests and apparently I have already missed one assignment because I didn't even know it existed (which might actually be my fault, but my company still is getting the blame for this s**t).

I'm pretty sure I made it very clear to my boss that starting the week of school I could not be a manager. She must have had other plans, like go on vacation, etc when I started school because what the FXCK am I doing still being a manager?! scream

You're probably wondering or going to ask me "Why don't you ask her?" or "Why don't you go to corporate?" Well, because of two things. 1) When you even try to voice your opinion to her, your opinion doesn't even matter. You don't get a say. No one can talk to her because it's either her way or no one's way at all. 2) I've just put my one week notice in because I have found another job at our competitor.

That's right! I have started working at our competitor. rofl Fxckers. If my own company can't even have respect for my schedule, I'll go to a company who makes more money, can pay their employees more (actually, I'll be making a lot less at my new job), gives more shits, has an actually vending machine in their break room (it's the luxuries in life that make me so fxcking happy) and sells food. I'm always hungry for food. yum_cupcake And, the atmosphere is much more relaxed. I love it so far.

Going back to my current/old company:
It wouldn't be fair for me or to my company to go in and pretend that I like working there. It's sad when I can't depend on my company to back me up, respect and my fellow coworkers, etc.

There is so much more to this story and maybe more will be posted in due time.
