I am a former employee of Smart Style, I had worked there for ten months, was on my second round of applying for the managers position. Everything was falling apart with only two employees, had three one quit when the area supervisor told her to find a babysitter for her sick child and buck it up and come to work. She had said she was done, and the girl who had been doing the schedule took her off the schedule. This left me and another girl to fill all of the blanks, with an area supervisor who saw no reason to come and help. I was in the middle of moving and getting a new veichle so i couldn't help out as much as i would of liked. I was left to pull another 12 hr shift in a weeks time.
The other girl decided to come and get her things she quit, I had called the area supervisor the day before to ask for help, only to get my rear chewed because the one girl quit, was told i refused to work more than 30 hrs, and than preceeded to tell me that the store did not need a manger and that was not the reason everything was falling apart. Only to go in the next morning and relize that the area supervisor expected me to keep the store opened from nine to nine Monday thru Fri, eight to eight on Sat and ten to six on Sun. I weighed out my options, I called the area supervisor told her the bomb blew up in Spencer and that I was done and if she wanted the store opened she would have to open it herself.
I reapplied after my three months were up to get this lecture by the current manager on how she didn't want anyone who could not make fifty percent commission on her team, that there were complaints about people being to bubbly. And that she got the go ahead to run the store the way she seen fit.
Yet I have been having a hard time getting a job anywhere else and feel I have been blacklisted if not been given a bad reference with out me giving my side of the story. What do i do?
