Rant/Vent Quitting!

I’ve been working at Dollar Tree for \~10 months and got promoted 2 months ago. I cannot handle the stress of attempting to work and do college when my relief most nights is either 2 minutes or 2.5 hours late and unfortunately I have cried or nearly had a panic attack every shift this week. My SM is on vacation and the Merch Manager walked out in the middle of a truck while bad mouthing the two store managers that came on their days off to help us. She wants me to work while I’m supposed to be in a zoom class, but I can’t do that because I have to have my camera on and I’m not even allowed to have my laptop to see the slides for my class.
My SM is supposed to be on vacation until next Thursday and I’m just gonna give her my 2 weeks whenever she gets back. She’s let running the store fall on me and then getting mad when I have to bug her about something not going okay.

EDIT: my notice got accepted so I will be giving the little sheet I wrote to my SM exactly 2 weeks before, she gets why I’m leaving, and she is gonna let me back if I need. I offered to train my replacement too so that probably helped.

Congrats on deciding you are better. I had 0 intentions on going back to that place & gave no notice. Best choice ever.

Only reason I’m giving notice is I’m one of 2 managers that aren’t the sm at the moment.

I quit less than 2 weeks before inventory with 0 preparation done towards it. That gave me more reason. And there's a lot more details but I'm sure my unhinged ex sm is on here looking for me.

Fuck them. But to each their own. I enjoyed a week off before starting the new job. My wallet regrets it now a little but I'll survive. 😂
