As most of you know, I currently work in a body shop (automotive body repair) I'm the office manager, and I've been here for 2 years. They (the dealership) is closing the body shop next Friday, and my boss got the money from the bank, and we are going to open a body shop under his name.
I had been under the impression for the past 4 MONTHS that I was going to have the same job, manage the bookwork, office, customers, claims - everything.
So, last week, the lady that was here before I started came in, asked my boss for a job. He gave her MY job.
He didn't even have the guts to tell me about it, until she came in and started talking to him about it right in front of me!! I had to ask him, and told him that I was very upset about the fact that I had lost my job, and hadn't even been told about it.
He told me that she had much more experience, and was very smart. (Boy, that made me feel dumb). BUT... (yeah, there's a but) he told me that he would take care of me, and keep me on the staff. As what? ..... He wants me out in the body shop, doing work out there with cars, checking in parts, ect.
Excuse me! I didn't go to college for 2 years and waste TONS of money on a degree to sweep a shop floor and check in car parts!
So, now I have ONE week to find a job. ONE week! I'm in tears. I've called the dealership who we work for to see if they need any office help - and they have no openings - but they are going to call me if anything opens up.
Seriously, this is just not my week
