I am at a snapping point mentally and I am completely burned out from work and I feel I need to take a break from the company.

I just reached out to HR to let her know that this will be effective as of tomorrow until my doctor clears me to come back but can I still get fired for informing her of this?

I stated in the email that I don't want to leave my position completely as I do enjoy working for the company but I do need a break or I fear I will actually end up leaving.

Only 2 days in and the new manager has pissed both me (the assistant manager) and the team lead off. I've been here for 3 months and I do really like my job, it's retail, it's my first management position and the pay is great, I'm finally at a point where I have my life together.

And then of course this new manager has ruined all of that. It's only day 2 and she's given me my performance review only 2 days after working with me. I would've much rather had my team lead who has been there with me since day 1 do this review since she's seen how I work one on one. She's also told me I'm not doing my job "to her standards" which she didn't even set those standards with me to begin with.

She pretty much just came in and told me I'm doing a bad job, even though the VP was in a week ago and said she really enjoyed working with me and said she was happy to have me on the team.

Im kind of at a loss here, I don't want to quit but I'm very close to doing so. Is this a farfetched thing to be upset about?

I'm an assistant manager and my store has been through 2 managers since I started only 3 months ago.

This new manager has been here for 2 days and she's been allowed to do my probation review. I don't understand how this is ok? She doesn't know me and doesn't know my work ethic. But apparently my "customer service" isn't up to her extreme standards of literally follow customers around the store and talking to them constantly when they're trying to show for their kids😭 and she pretty much gave me a terrible review off the hop too.

I am at a complete loss, I loved my job, I loved the people I worked with, I was dragged through the mud and now I've decided to quit two days into this new manager working there. I should've known this job would be a shitshow when the big boss gave me the "you need to prioritize this job over everything else in your life" talk...

Stayed up til 3AM making my hubby's family a brisket for his mother's Day lunch, my mom works til 6 today but I still want to do something nice for her, I won't really be able to unless I cancel on this dinner and tell hubby I'm staying home.

My mom's very picky, the only thing she wants is roasted potatoes for dinner tonight, if I do this dinner I won't have the time to make them for her.

I'm an assistant manager for a very small retail store at a resort. My husband goes for back surgery on June 3rd, so I asked to have the 3rd-6th off to be there for him during the beginning of his recovery, turns out 4 of us (literally all the staff) all want the same day off for different reasons. The big boss said "one of you needs to volunteer to either open or close that day because the manager can't be left alone the whole day"

Meanwhile here I am, literally being left alone for the whole day because one girl who only works once a week called in sick, and the other girl has to leave right as my shift starts. This is also during one of our busy days... I'm so frustrated 😭.

I'm really stressed out about how I'm going to go about telling my boss I have absolutely non negotiation-able time off, a week to be specific.

My husband is getting back surgery and I'm not going to just go to work for a week 3 hours away knowing he's sitting at the hospital by himself. I can't do that and I'm refusing to do that.

I'm an assistant manager and she's already given me the "this job is your number 1 priority over everything else in your life" talk...

I'm an assistant manager of a teeny tiny clothing store at a ski resort and I feel so damn stuck. I get paid really well but this isn't a passion for me, I dread going into work most days😮‍💨. The only thing keeping me is the pay.

My husband is getting back surgery sometime soon, the date is unconfirmed as of right now. He's going to need me for at least the first 2-3 weeks of his recovery, possibly the whole month but I'm wondering if my job can fire me for this, and if there's a way I can still get some sort of pay since a month is a long time with no paycheck.

Thanks in advance!
