How is work making you feel?

I feel stressed 🤠

so I was promoted to manager and I started at a new location 2 months ago.

i get a lot of anxiety when it comes to change. So it was very stressful for me to have to learn how a new location operates and learn a whole new team on top of being a new manager and still getting used to the basics of the position.

I finally started getting a little more comfortable and I was just told today that I’m being transferred to another location again starting Monday. So essentially less than two days notice.

now this location is a much shorter driver and they’re busier so I will earn higher bonuses.

but it just sucks that I just started to find my rhythm here and now I essentially have to start over again…

I just got my new schedule and my first shift there I’m literally closing alone with a manager in training.
like why the fuck would you schedule my first shift here by myself…I don’t know the team here nor do I know the exact closing procedures. And on top of that you’re gonna pair me with someone who is training? Like bro I barely know what I’m doing myself, and I’m supposed to train a manager even newer than me? Be so fucking for real for 5 fucking minutes.

and I have heard so many horror stories about the general manager here and that she’s a nightmare to work for.

At my current location I already knew the GM and one of the other managers because we were promoted together and we had a really good relationship already.

And I was hoping I was at least gonna transferred to the location I started in because I heard one of the managers there is pregnant and she’s thinking of leaving. I know the team there and know how everything works because I worked there for 3 years. But apparently they already have someone else in mind to fill that position. So fuck me, I guess.

It seems like I’m just an extra manager and they’re never sure where to place me but they are always so sure what the plans are with everyone else.

I try not to focus on how stressful it can be and instead focus upon how much I am earning. It makes having to pull off crazy tasks that must more tolerable when you know that the profit from just that one project is enough for a new MusicMan guitar.

Just fine, solving problems and saving lives.

There are days that suck, but i get through them.

I wish I could be one of those people who just smile and dance a little on the internet for their paycheck, work is exhausting 😭

Change can be overwhelming, especially when it's unexpected. It's understandable to feel a mix of stress and frustration given your circumstances. Embrace the challenges as opportunities to showcase adaptability and growth. Rely on your past experiences; they will guide you through this transition. Communicate openly with your new team to establish support. Take one day at a time, focus on what you can control, and seek guidance from colleagues or mentors. Remember, growth often comes from stepping outside of our comfort zones. Your resilience will pave the way for success.

Okay- I have had quite a few different jobs in my career. Every time i started a new job it was always a confusing and stressful situation. I had to learn new systems and try to learn the names of all the new people. After the third of fourth time I figured that getting a new job was nothing I had not already done before. All the other times I did this I was okay in the end and I told myself that this time will be no different.

You just got transferred to a new place. You were able to figure it out. You will be able to figure the new office out as well.

Exhausted but it comes with the kind of job I have and because I've been there for almost 7 years and know how mostly everything is done and I good at what I do I am often bouncing between locations doing a lot of different things.
