Our assistant manager got fired a few months ago...stupid shit, really. But anyway, I was next in line to take her position. At first I was told the job is mine. Then about a week later, they said there was some basic paperwork to go through as a formality...etc...etc...etc....
Skip ahead now. I'm still not the assistant manager. Oh, they have no problem with me doing the work; I've even been complimented occasionally on how well I'm doing. They just don't want to PAY me to do this. So I'm thinking of telling my boss that until I get promoted, I am no longer going to do any of the assistant manager duties.
I can see one of two things happening here:
1) She realizes I've lost my patience and I've jumped through enough hoops and she gets on the horn to whoever is ultimately in charge of promotions and gets things moving a little more quickly.
2) She doesn't take kindly to my trying to push her around, and promptly shitcans me.
Any guesses on which one is more likely, or even if this is a VERY bad idea? lol...
I hate all this crap. I'm good at my job - running a C-store is about the only thing I'm good at. But inter-office corporate politics get me messed up every single time.
