My job turned 180 degrees.
The past month I have been getting shit from pretty much everyone who is above me in the store about me not selling enough, not having the department looking good enough and (seemingly) not giving a shit. One even mentioned that there was a discussion of whether or not to get rid of me. Really. So I had it all planned out. I was going to march into the store managers office Friday morning and step down as department manager and by doing so, I will no longer clean up anyone elses mess, or assist in anyway to the department if it didn't pertain to me. Every drive to and from work I was working on the "speech". I was prepared to be fired because I was sick of their BS and was gonna let them have it.
I didn't get the chance.
As I walked in this morning the store manager pulls me into his office and informs me that he fired someone from the GC Pro division (major accounts) and would really like me to do the job. He was more affraid of "losing me" than I was of being fired. He thinks that since I did a great job running the department and that there was no opportunity to move up in the direct sales area that this would be the best move.
Plus: More Money, bonuses, no more working on Saturday, less hours, office (shared)
Minus: This will delay my plans to Nashville for a while. Meh.
