Well, right before I left for vacation last week, my manager put her 2 weeks notice in. Seeing as how I was doing the majority of her work anyway, I was really hoping that I could take over everything. The recieving and ordering and payroll were really the only things that I didnt do before. Well, the owner and I had a talk right before I left for Oklahoma and I was offered Asst Manager title with a small raise. (Seeing as how I did the job and more, I didnt know wether to be offended, or to feel aknowledged finally).
Apparently I didnt get the Manager title becuase I dont have a college degree. And another big
So, he has hired a 23 year old who has a degree in Equine Science to be Manager. I am feeling a bit ****** off about that. And to pour salt in that wound, I get to TRAIN HER!!!!!
She is coming in next week knowing absolutley nothing. I am so GRRRR about that. I put everything into my job, if I dont know something, I ask till I find the right answer. I have customers call and ask spefically for me becuase they know that I will direct them in the right direction and give them the right answers.....I am extremely frusterated right now but am trying to make the best of it until something else comes into play job wise. The county (where I had put my resume) is on a hiring freeze right now, so that's a no go anytime soon.
Just feeling blue about this whole thing.
Trying to find the right person to break Justin for me. Then I have my doubts about taht too. Do I have the guts to finish him? Arena work is no problem, the problem is that I dont have a round pen or ring to ride in here at home. Just a big open field a few houses down where we ride. With having no health ins, it's always in the front of my mind if I get thrown, I am screwed.....I hate feeling like that. I was offered an 18 year old who was supposedly bomb proof, but hasnt been ridden in 7 years. I dont know if I even want to go and look at him or not.
I think I need to just shower and go to bed!! MAybe I'll feel more optimistic tomorrow!
