Goddess morning Royals. First give praise and worship to the all High.
There is a certain age where you should sit down and really ponder over whether or not returning to the working environment is for you. I’m a 51 years old and decided I could use a little more income to get me financially where I want to be in this age. Now I’m not sure if my conscious and I were on the same page or not but I physically returned to the working class, in retail no less.
I never been in retail but I’m very educated and have experience in management, marketing, finance, customer relations, etc., how bad can it be? When I say it is a horse of a different color and breed, it is! I wasn’t prepared psychologically for warfare within the company. I was mentally prepared to deal with customers and different cultures, ethnicities, sexes, creeds and attitudes. What I wasn’t prepared for was the lack of respect, support and work ethics of the employees that work for this company. I will not exploit this company because temporarily I still work there. However, I’m not sure how long I will remain in this environment of selfishness, low morale, lack of respect and integrity, unstable, unsafe environment.
I could complain about everyone but I won’t because I realize poor management leads to poor staffing. In regard to this statement it is one district manager who makes operations for this company a nightmare. He’s a chauvinist male with the intent to bring disruption amidst the employees. I have experienced chauvinistic behavior all my career, I didn’t accept it then and damn sure not going to accept it now! This “person” if he shall be called that, is miserable and wants others to live in his misery but I can’t. I have come to far from depression, post traumatic stress disorder, anxiety disorder, and mental illness to allow this person chauvinism to set me back.
I had to climb past his head to the top because of an incident but now it’s just retaliation on his behalf. He’s still trying to show me his ass but I will not kiss it like the others that works underneath him. I took this job to regain myself after years of being locked into severe depression but I might need to take this as a lost or a hiccup along the way and move on.
It was hard for me to pull myself together and seek the necessary help I so needed so for him to try and break me is something I cannot allow. This male is toxic and needs therapy himself for the sake of his health and mental stability. I can see at any moment his life is going to take a nasty turn from all the negative karma he puts into the universe. He’s severely obese, stressed, miserable, and loveless. He needs a hug but I’m not the one to give it to him. He is unable to separate home life from his work life and it’s causing mental strain on his employees.
It’s a shame that out of all his employees only 2 can actually say they are friends or like him. 2/200 isn’t a great ratio for no scenario. The math isn’t mathing! I’m trying my best not to go back to the top to report the problems I having out of this male but he’s making it very difficult for me not to do it.
I enjoy working and being part of society but I can feel me slipping back into a depression because of this male. His blatant disregard for others health, mental, physical, emotional and safety is a violation of people’s rights and the company’s policies, regulations and COMAR regulations, not to mention HIPPA as well as OSHA and FMLA. This male clearly know where to find all these things but yet to implement them as a higher manager. I was injured and couldn’t report my injuries to him because he isn’t one that care about workplace injuries. He also isn’t suppose to share my injuries or medical with anyone but it’s known across the company.
The complications I am experiencing at this company has me reevaluating my return to the workforce. At first I thought I was missing something when people were deciding to just quit their jobs but now I understand their decision so well. It is people like him that make it hard for people to want to work for any company. While the work isn’t hard the strain on your mental is, not knowing what kind of a day your district manager is having to deal with him.
It’s funny though, when his supervisor is around he’s the friendliest person in the building with the fake “I appreciate you” crap that comes out his lying mouth. As long as you kiss his ass you are in his good graces my lips don’t kiss no ass because I kiss my granddaughter with this mouth. I can go on and on about this inappropriate male but I’ll end it here, because I can feel the anger and hate building as I rant on about him.
Sending you all mental health support, love and prayers. #GoddessLove
