Man, can I understand how you feel. I werokd for target 4 years (had done a years time @ wallyworld), so, doublely thrilled to be there. After, about a year, I was told I needed to smile, blah, blah, the usual. At one point was to act like you're playing a role on tv . Nope, feel like a hypocrite, still tried. I'm a very serious minded person & at times felt sick doing so. I'm told this all the time, but, they put me & GS my 3rd day there. I hadn't been there a year when I won the lovely gift' for getting the most bullseyes for the month. So, years go on, am told I'm the GS Queen one minute, next you're not friendly, blah freakin' blah. Though, I'd get comment cards from guests sent to home office about how good I was @ job. etc. Things starting to REALLY bad when things kept getting left for me, from previous team member & I finally complained. Yes, I was calling in too often (others were worse). However, during the time, we'd lost our house, filed bankruptcy, cancer scare in family, I had major surgery, no car, several deaths, whole new school district for child & yadda yadda. Doing my job & others @ times, new people getting positions I should, didn't because I didn't keep quiet & allow them to walk all over me. Rarely did the nutball lods back me fully, respectfully with guests my last few months. One gsa even told the lod I was looking at her, thus, causing me to get called in!! Anyway, I got coached' for things I supposedly was doing wrong for FIVE months before they told me, but, for 4 years I'd been doing the SAME way!? Yep, you guessed it, I was let go . Who replaced me the day of my surprising, wonderful release? A woman with scraggly hair, no teeth, smelled like an ashtray, with the IQ of a pickle, that had not be trained more than a couple of days, if at all.:) That's okay, I'm getting a vacation before I look elsewhere.
