I’m really hoping one of your followers might be able to offer me some advice because I don’t know what to do anymore. I work as a cashier in a grocery store and my front end manager clearly hates me, don’t ask me why. I have good attendance, I’m respectful of my customers and coworkers and I’m polite and respectful towards him. He has cut back my hours to the point where I can’t pay my bills. He also puts me on express every day, even though he knows that bagging hurts my back. I even said I would bring a note from my doctor about my back and he said if I did that he would cut back my hours even further. No matter how fast I work he often pulls me aside to literally yell at me about long lines as if I have any control over how few registers we have open. At this point I cry every day on my way to work, and I’m afraid to speak to the store manager or anyone else about this because I know he’ll retaliate and I need this job. I don’t know what to do.


(My advice: I had a front end manager that hated me and tried to find every reason in the book to write me up. He couldn’t cut my hours bc we were so understaffed that it was impossible. But if he were able he would have. My solution was to do my job to the best of my ability. I was a damn good cashier and I’m pretty sure you are too. Own it. If he keeps on picking on you maybe you should try talking to the store manager in confidence. Tell them you’re scared if he knows he will retaliate. They may be more understanding than you know.)

Anyone else have any other solutions?!

Resign and find another place to work.
