I contacted the Vice president because my job told me I have to choose between my new job and my old job 馃槨 this is what I wrote. Should I add anymore

Hello. My name is Emily ****** And I've been working at k&G for about 2 years. I've always been a loyal employee to the company. But I feel I'm being mistreated. I Recently got a second job because I Recently found out I'm still being paid only 10/hr. Everyone at my work is being paid 13 and they claimed it would raise in a month. I brought it up to one of my managers attention. So I'm still sure it has not changed. So because of this. I have a different schedule. I work from 11am til 5 pm. I asked if I could work from 6pm til close which they have done before but they were unhappy and said I had to choose between my new job and this job. It felt like a threat they were going to let me go. I have never been written up once not been suspended. In fact I have been the one keeping the store perfect on ladies. More than recovering. I go out of my way to do The jewelry. The hats. The purses. Displays. Organizing shoes on the side. Including kids. But I feel I'm being taken advantage of. Each manager doesn't do much for the store as they all sit in the office all day on their phone. Except Connie. She is the only one who has been working hard out her way. I feel it is unfair how hard I work and I get paid for little under minimum wage. And when I meantion how I can't work as many hours anymore. And I work on Saturdays. They force me to choose between this job I have to the new one I have. I have never felt so disrespected. Any time I have called off it was for mental health and the hospital. As I have been on more medication. But they guilt Trip me for now showing up when I have a disorder that causes me bleeding from the face. Ok Sunday I had to call off because the bleeding hadnt stopped in 4 hours. And I did not want to hazard any of the products. But I was scorned and spoken down to. This is unacceptable to me. I don't know who to go to. I don't want to say names but one of the managers has been speaking badly behind my back to the employees. It has left me very hurt. I ignore it but when my other coworkers come to me and tell me what they have said to me, it puts my mental health more into distress. Why must I choose to be forced to have one job. We had one coworker. Her name was Andrea. She worked only on Sundays. I have been spoken down for the wrong reasons when I do such an incredible job when I am there. Even when I have worked from 6pm til close. I have always made sure I've put in my very best. But now since I'm not making what everyone else is at my work. I feel excluded. I even clean and sanitize everything. The registers, the hangers, the bathroom, the recliners in the backroom. The fitting rooms. I AM THE ONLY one who makes sure no one gets sick. I am the only one why the store looks so good when customers walk in. My coworker thought it was best I speak to you because he is going through the same situation. But I feel the store needs me. I can provide any images of my condition. And how hard I work at K&G. It's just not fair when the managers are on their phone and then when I want to record or take a picture of how well I've done. I get attacked for it to not have it out when I was feeling so happy with the work I've done. I feel absolutely devestated. I only ask to work from 6pm to close. I cannot work on Saturdays. As I also have therapy every other week after my new job. But since my therapist has been recently promoted I will be be having to see a new therapist. So I do not know if it will also still be Saturdays. BBut since I need more money that is why I took this job. Which requires me on that day. I do not understand since we just recieved new hires that can replace me for that day. I need help. Thank you for listening. I am absolutely terrified of going into work tomorrow. Since I work tomorrow from 11-5. And 5-9. I am forced to tell my new job to let me go early so I can be there. That is why I called if I could come in at 6 today because of that and I got scorned by joene like I betrayed k&G. When I've done so much. I feel so unappreciated. 馃様

And then today Eden took me to the side and said something really offensive to me about; If I'm not compatible at K&G what makes me think I'm going to be compatible at my other job. I couldn't believe he said that to my face but I had to play it off as if it meant nothing. I really like working at K&G but when things like this happen, It makes me lose hope, and motivation. Especially in myself. I feel I have no choice but to reach out. I am very concerned how everything will turn out.

I feel it's quite frank, you don't use nice words to make Vice president like you. Could find something nice about her and include in the letter.

I think you can add something like this- Happy employees make better employees, more productive employees. When people are forced to do something against their wish, their quantity and quality of work might decrease and it's not good for a business.

@mysteryespresso why would I say anything nice if I'm the one being disrespected though? And paid less? Also why should I care if I'm not being paid enough to care enough like everyone else is.
@ScarletWitch some bosses have huge ego, they might mistake criticism for disrespect

@mysteryespresso I tried to be as professional as I could.
@ScarletWitch you're right, they disrespected you. No one would like a person who doesn't have self respect

@mysteryespresso I did add what u wrote. Thank you.
@ScarletWitch you're welcome.
ScarletWitch26-30, F
@mysteryespresso and I think I have to disagree with you on the whole I didn't say anything to make him like me him knowing how much of a hard worker that I put in for the store that doesn't get appreciated that shows him how much of a compatible person I am.

you asked for advise, I gave honest advise.

You can either say thank you and take it or leave it.

@mysteryespresso what are u mad about that u deleted two responses. It's all good. It's just a disagreement.
@ScarletWitchnot mad at all, would never be. The responses were

1. there's one lady I shared honest opinion with her, she is the boss who likes people kiss her ass and she got her ego hurt, she made my life miserable. I learnt to not say brutal truth and sugarcoat things

2. something that might work for you might not work for me. It's good you do not follow people's advise blindly.
Thank you for the best answer @mysteryespresso
