Last month a couple coworkers got into a fight, and one threatened to quit. She actually left, and the bosses promised her the moon and stars to stay with the company. Though I think they also promised her MY position, which is store designer.
I asked the manager what is going on and he said the boss is coming down Wednesday to talk to me about becoming assistant manager. I have been asking for management position for over a year. I do the job anyway, so I might as well have the title and extra pay.
I am SUPER PSYCHED to talk about the new position, but I'd like to still keep my current title as well. I mean, I do both now, so why not continue doing both?
What do I say if they offer me the manager position? Turn it down and stand firm as designer? Hand over my title and become assistant manager? I LOVE being the store designer. I love taking care off how the store looks, arranging it, making sure everything is current trend and appealing to customers. But I also want the additional responsibility of being a manager.
I am 100% sure that this is what the meeting is about: being one or the other, not both.
