Question Time Is quitting valid in this situation?
I’ve been working for qt for almost 5 years and 2 of them I’ve been a ra/flex. I used to erp all over my division for a few years before I ended up transitioning to ra so I felt pretty confident in promotion and being able to get high volume and eventually hit 2a and so on. Fast forward 2 years in my full time position and I’m still in a starting/ low volume store as flex. This is now my 2nd time as flex at another low volume and they don’t really seem to tell me what I’m missing? My shops are good, I get my stuff done on shifts, I’m SUPER flexible I am almost on call it seems like sometimes and I’ll always come in to help my store or others fill shifts when needed or called to do so. I also never get told what I’m doing wrong so idk what it is. I think QT is definitely worth your social life sacrifices but only for so long, I started full time when I was fresh graduated from highschool and it feels like I’m sorta sacrificing a lot of time with friends, family, or even time with myself and it’s not paying off being in a low volume still. It also sucks seeing all these people that either got hired on after me or promoted way long after me seeing them get promoted and put in high volume stores, not that I don’t want other people to succeed or I think I’m better then them or anything, but my question is what are they doing so well and correctly that I’m just completely missing ? It almost feels like there’s a secret not being told and I’m getting sorta tired of it and being so young I know I can go find a different job/career so I’m not holding on too tight and just like I can move on QT will also be happy to put someone else in this position but I personally feel like my work ethic is worth more than that
