      There should be division of responsibility. For example the place I work right now, the owner is a husband and wife, where the husband takes responsibility for marketing and the wife takes care everything else. And they don't override one another because staffs are the wife domain, while the husband busied himself with meeting big clients. He may asks staffs to do some paperwork from time to time, but never bother us with excessive works.

      Heu... she is a danger for the shop... if she get her identity stole 3 times in the same years (and we don't know if we are at the start or the end of this one), how much info can she give about the shop itself to any caller? How much personnal info of the clients does she has access too? Info on the employee as she is a manager (she probably has access to liscence number/social security number, phone number, date of birth, contacts numbers that often include full name of the parents and other stuff like this.

      Managers make such a huge difference. Having a good one - hard-working, knowledgeable, supportive, encouraging, someone you KNOW has your back, will make you want to work harder, keep you happy and motivated, and go the extra mile. THEN you get the one who doesn't know crap, is a total "yes-man," is focused on hierarchy rather than who can do what job well, doesn't ask, doesn't learn, doesn't get to know how things work, doesn't get to know what people's strengths are, moves stuff around constantly, is just incompetent - people become angry, frustrated, stressed out, and spend a lot of time and energy venting, begins to lose their passion and motivation, stops going the extra mile and does the minimum required for their job. This is what we are going through now.
      BEFORE the good one, we had NO manager in our facility (we had a manager who was regional for 2 facilities and she visited ours maybe once every week or two weeks) and even then, we were a fantastic team, full of respect towards each other, striving always for excellence, very little drama, and loving our jobs. In other words, we were already a good team and good boss made us even better. Bad boss came in and pretty much wrecked things.

    When you're in a situation like that and get fired, you ask for a meeting with a case manager or supervisor at the unemployment office. You give them copies of the stuff that you did, tell them about the staffing, the miscommunication between the bosses, everything. ESPECIALLY the crap about you working too much overtime. And that they didn't help you with the stuff. That way the supervisor can recommend that the city/state revoke their business license. Just in case they try to fight the unemployment.

I asked for $2 an hour more and was told the company couldn't afford it, so I found another job and quit. I went back 3 months later to visit and found out they hired 3 people to do my job at the same rate, each, they had paid me. So you can't afford $2 an hour but you can afford $20 an hour? Needless to say they are no longer in business.

      Have you ever noticed how many scammer emails are really, really poorly written? Multiple spelling and grammatical errors, obvious logical inconsistencies, etc.? Some security / antiscam person (I don't recall who) pointed out that these were features, not bugs. Intelligent and street wise people (not the same populations) would realize such an email was a scam attempt and would delete it without opening. People like the woman in Story 2 would not have the appropriate error-detection brainware, open it and have a high probability of responding to and cooperating with the scammer.
      .
      I.e., scammer emails are crafted to filter out the more difficult to scam people, creating a self-selecting population of responders who would be easier and more lucrative to scam, lowering their costs of doing business and increasing their payoff per scamee rate. Features, not bugs.

    The 1st story reminded me about my aunt. She lived with her parents her entire life, except for 6 months when she was married. My grandmother, *literally,* did everything for her during her entire life. She worked in my grandfather’s dress store, and when he retired, she got a job at a high end department store, and was very successful.
    She was around 52 when my grandmother died, and 55 when my grandfather died. She was lost then. She didn’t know how to do anything, except work. Didn’t know how to do anything that had to do with household chores, or really just taking care of herself.
    She completed suicide a few years later, being a lonely, sad woman. They did a disservice to her, by not teaching her how to be independent at all. She could have still lived with them, but they needed to teach her some life skills. 😢

    Oh hell no !!! Plans change and you forgot to tell me that you put me on the schedule? Yeah no that doesn't work for me and I will not be working for you TODAY!! NOT HAPPENING. Plans may change but in this situation your mistake does not have anything to do with me you made the mistake so you will be working that shift because that's what happens when managers FAIL to ACTUALLY "MANAGE"!
    What would you have done if I failed to call the store for directions and just called tomorrow? ( I don't know what state this op is or was working in, but in New York you have to have at least a 24-hour notification for a schedule change, that's just the way it is you can't just write someone's name in on the schedule after the schedule is already been posted and then say well you're on the schedule so you need to come into work! No I'm sorry that's not how this works😂😂
    I would have thanked him for the directions and said they will be very useful tomorrow when I come in on my scheduled shift!! However as this is my day off I will be going to sleep now so I can be all perky tomorrow to work my SCHEDULED SHIFT! (keep saying the word SCHEDULED extremely emphasized!)
    THEN END THE CALL WITH
    " hopefully it won't be busy tonight and you'll have an easy shift anyway I've got to go I need to get caught up on my sleep I'll talk to you tomorrow good night !!"
    and then hang up the phone 🫵🏻🤳 💢CLICK!!💢

    Separating the Checks Story: Assuming this happened in Canada or the USA, OP was foolish...They should have called the State Department of labor when Boss changed the Schedule without warning or notifying OP about the change and then forcing OP to go in and work tired...In EVERY province and State is is LAW that Schedules MUST be posted 7 or 14 (it varies by area) Days before the start of the 1st shift of that Schedule and once posted MAY NOT BE CHANGED WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL EMPLOYEES AFFECTED (so if you and a coworker want to swap shifts, the consent notice must have the signatures of you, the coworker AND the Shift Manager for it to be Legal)...

    Story #1: Decades ago, as a woman in her 20's at the time, I worked for an 18-table restaurant/ice cream fountain place. Table and take out service. I was the cook, and we had a very large and varied menu, actually, and ice cream was made on premises twice weekly, and you could watch him making it in the glass walled room. It was cool to watch I guess. Not the point though.
    Anyway, the couple that owned the place at the time, he made the ice cream and helped wherever needed at the time, but so-so at all of the jobs. She was the same, just like her husband, seriously slow, and didn't make ice cream...but did kitchen stuff more but not really better. Well, that night we were slammed three times over. Lines literally out the door, and what ended as a 3 1/2 hour freaking rush. I am fast...ADHD overload, really. Plus, if I had my tapes playing...YES I'm old....I could get in a groove and sail for hours if left alone and out of my way. I had orders waiting for picking up and THREE waitresses AND to go orders, but I was belting out the orders. AND they both came into the kitchen giving ME crap because food is sitting under lamps getting 'old'!!! WTF?! I said "I'm fine...but why can't three waitstaff not keep up with one cook and 2 fountain people?" They gave me shit, because they knew I was right but couldn't bitch out waitstaff in front of customers, can they? The only ones in back were me and dish people, and it's not their fault. Both of them at the same time, in the small kitchen.
    So I got pissed off and told them..and yes verbatim, "Oh fuck off! I'm the fastest cook you've ever had and you KNOW it! I do the prep, I do the counting for you to order, I do the opening and have done the closings, and YOU say this is MY fault?! YOU Fucking cook then! I never got a break yet and I've been on duty 5 damn hours! That's illegal!"
    Oh...btw...my voice has that tone that carries even when I'm not trying for it to do so. I literally went to the little table in the corner by the dish area and office and sat my butt down and crossed my arms. They obviously had to work the kitchen and deal with me later...orders were piling up, food was on the grill, the griddle, the fryers, and the prep board.
    After that rush finally ended, he came back and very quietly said that his wife would like to speak to me in the kitchen, please. I went to the kitchen and it was a blazing wreck! OMG I've never seen such a mess. Horrifying, really. OMG...I can't...and the walk-in...oh Lordie. Sauces on door handles, lettuce, grated cheese, chopped egg everywhere. the griddle with burning meat and cheese bits, fryers floating with fall-off pieces...everything empty and not refilled. Spilled salad dressing in the walk-in floor, too. And much more.
    EVERYTHING I alone manage to do, they could not manage with BOTH of them working together! I took literally a minute just looking around, opening doors, assessing the 'damage', saying nothing. She said nothing either. Just stood watching me. Finally done looking at the entire mess everywhere, I walked over to her, and she looked at me without a word. I just gave her a look that says 'I see you made 20X the mess I ever did even on the busiest shifts' without a word. Her expression shifted to a spot over my shoulder and I knew her husband was behind me. Her gaze shifted to the ground momentarily and then back to my eyes. She then spoke the quietest I've ever heard her, and said, "I'll clean this up. It's not fair to ask you to do it, since you didn't make it. Please just help the dishwasher if you don't mind, while I do."
    I just said, "I'll clean it up, since the stocking and closing still has to be done and I clean then anyway." SHE went and helped the dishwasher catch up. The husband went into the office to do some paperwork. Neither of them EVER complained or yelled at me ever again, no matter what was going on. They KNEW what I said was the truth. And it was. I've always been fast if it was needed. ADHD, remember? Talked fast, too. LOL
    Even in high school working Burger King...I was the fastest on the boards whilst also being made correctly and neatly, and a cocky male manager also got schooled unintentionally by me when HE yelled at me years before the above incident. He was blaming ME for food not showing up, when in fact someone took the regular burgers instead of the special order ones they ordered. So everyone said race to see who is actually the better burger maker..and I always won and he always got pissed then stomped off to the office. I just know I'm a fast worker if needed. That's my sort of Karen bosses..who rehabilitated. LOL

So months later it was just me and they said after I train new people they would give me the leadman spot ok. One of the manager buddies started and he got leadman 3 days later and always asked me where things went . So I decided to job hunt and found something new. Came in to my old job and no one was there they new guys all quit . And so I waited for our team meeting as always until I had to go find a higher up to ask where everyone was and was told they all quit. I said well I want the team lead position . They laughed at me and said no . I said ok bye and left with them screaming that I couldn’t do that and I said watch me

    Uff... Story #4 reminds me of when I started my shift on Friday at 7 AM (as I always do). That Friday we were told that our country starts the COVID lockdown on Monday. Well that means we have to get everyone moving out to work from home. So I did not go home that day, neither a few following days. My memory is a bit fuzzy on the entire thing, but when I recalled it some time ago my wife corrected me and said she hadn't seen me for 4 days when it started, but I thought it was 3. My overtime sheet looks a bit all over the place and doesn't seem to cover all of it, but by the looks of it I did file it correctly I started Friday after my shift and all days including Monday have overtimes until midnight. The spreadsheet we used wasn't well setup for multi-day overtimes, but that would line up with my wife saying she did not see me for 4 days.
    By the end, the top manager of our office asked me to do something and I jokingly said "Ok, but if I don't report back in 30 minutes remind me, I am so tired I might have forgotten". Turns out I got an escalation filed against me, which is basically a formal complaint. My boss tossed it immediately since I didn't even fail to do what I was asked (normally I'd have to at least give an explanation), but the gist of it was "complaining about being tired despite everyone working hard to make the move to work from home work".
    And yes, the team leads and managers did come into the office to assist by packing up devices and even prepping some specific length Ethernet cables for some home setups (employees had to estimate what length they'd need), but none of them stayed over-night like the IT staff did. So yeah, the manager tried to write me up for warning them that someone pushing close to 60 hours awake might forget to do something. In hindsight I shouldn't have even driven back home, but it was a Monday, so lockdown was in effect and the streets were empty.

I would have looked them dead in the face and said yeah but who's going to train them and when they said you I would have said oh well that's a manager's job isn't it? So unless you pay me to do that no I will not be training the new ones coming in also what makes me think that you're going to keep me on after I train everyone you no longer need me right? So no give me the position in the pay now or this is my 2 weeks notice and you can train them yourself and I'm also going to stop doing all the duties that fall under the managerial duties! You know, things like stocking and doing paperwork and all that stuff that a manager does that you should be doing as we have no manager but I have been doing so I'm going to stop doing all of that if you're not going to pay me to do it
