I got canned!
What the hell!?
OK technically my job was eliminated and a new position was created for me with a pay cut effective 4 months after my return from maternity leave. I had the choice to either take the new job or a severance package... so I'm taking the severance much to my manager's dismay.
Yes, that's right. They eliminated my position and found a sneaky way to cut my pay when I'm on STATE DISABILITY LEAVE and my job and compensation are PROTECTED!
WHAT THE HELL!?!?
So... I found a new job. lol. Didn't take long. Went in to the local grocery store to apply for a checker position (wow they start low on the payscale! And Journeyman is only $13.46/hr!), and within three hours I was offered the job of Variety Manager! Yes, that's it - I'm in charge of inventory/facing/customer service for your non-grocery items. NICE! Pay is less than what I was making, but without the commute (store is literally two blocks away), we actually now have enough $$ to pay the sitter (my mom). Nice!
But I really wanted the job they offered me to stay at my "old" place. :( It was a great job and perfect for me! But... if they can pull a stunt like this when my job is "protected" (yeah right, what a joke!) then what will they do when I'm a regular employee!? Fuck that shit. :)
Oh, by the way there's a new lady above my boss and I HATE her. lol.
