Arts and Crap

Up +50 Down

I used to work for an Arts and Crafts chain-store. I started in an older smaller store, but over the course of a few months we ended up moving into a new warehouse sized store. One night my manager who was a total dick told me to sweep up the warehouse store two hours before the store closed something we had never done before. I told him the floors would just get dirty again from all the dried flowers and vines and what not. He got upset, yelled at me and I ended up sweeping the floor. Two hours later we closed and like I said the floors were dirty again. He yelled at me I did not sweep it the first time and not only made me sweep it again he made me do it a third time while he watched to make sure I listen to him from now on. It's now around midnight and I'm tired for working my 8-9 hour day. My manager then comes over and tells me I have to show up tomorrow at 5 am at the old store to help clean it out. Not knowing any better I show up to the old store to see my other manager sitting at a table with some of the female employees. Their job was to sort all the miscellaneous items while sitting in nice chairs in the warm building. My job was to spend 8 hours moving 20 years worth of junk, heavy boxes, trash and anything else heavy to a dumpster that was 20 feet away from the store crossing the road that was a sheet of ice. The manager spent all day flirting with the girls, calling me a "pussy" when I needed help moving heavy items into the dumpster and buying lunch for everyone but me because he "forgot about me" while I was in the back. It's ok a week later the store was totally moved and I was laid off.
