Ok...........so, i went in to let them know that I accepted a new offer. As I expected, they were dissapointed. my manager actually went home for the day with a headache. Can't help but feel that was my fault...well...another manager actually told me she was stressed about how they were going to make the numbers now.
Yikes. Been there 6 days.
I feel better, but they had gone ahead a put me on another schedule anyway, and are pressuring me to finish my week out. They came back with a counter offer (no where near what the new company is offering) and then actually offered to put me in the mentoring program to become a manager in 60 days. Did I mention I've only been there a week?!?
Still, I told them that I must move on, and hightailed it over to the new job to see if they coule retard my schedule the next 5 days so that as a courtesey, I can put in a weeks notice. This way, I was told, according to company policy, I can still return to this job if I offer them that weeks notice.
*fingers crossed*
Bright side: other than adjusting to a new schedule, it appears that the good times and smiles will start flowing again....if that is, my mean family stays away.
I have been hurting for a long time...feeling so betrayed.
RANT:
For those of you who don't know...I was a very popular, hardworking hairstylist who was fired from my job 4th of July weekend by my father. His wife never liked me. They owned the salon. I am part of my mother, and I act and look alot like her. What a painful reminder for a woman who broke up a decades long marriage. Not that it was all her fault, but trust me....she is not a good person. I give everyone a fair chance.
Also, she was very jealous, trying to sabotage me at every turn:
Telling people to steer ckear of me because I was a goth freak, that my makeup was horrible and scary, that I was desperate for attention and controlling.
Hello.....hairstylist! Makeup good dumbass.
Besides that....I had people driving over an hour into the salon to see me to get thier makeup done because they liked the way I looked. (Also I ve been doing it 12 years+) She didn't like me though, and after slandering me behind my back to our entire staff with outright lies, each of the 30 staff members quit 1 by 1, telling me to get the hell away from those shitty people, family or not.
Good side is...I have 30 new ex coworker friends.
My dad actually had the nerve to call me in the middle of the night to fire me because his wife had a tantrum.
"My wife has it on good authority that you were seen several times over the house <of a former employee>...so we are going to have to let you go. We don't want you socializing with anyone who works here, used to work here or comes here as a client."
They also told me just before I was fired that I could not wear makeup in the salon anymore, that my nose stud was appalling, (People are afraid of you...they can't figure out what you are.) WHAT I am ..not who...what for christs fucking sake.
Like I was some kind of freaking monster because I like to wear make up...which by the way was not overdone.
I was not allowed to go to the bars in that area and that I was not allowed to sing within a 10 mile radius...or i was going to be fired.
I drove an hour and a half to work everyday, never called in, never missed, helped them BUILD the fucking place..and this is how they repay me.
Can you believe that shit?!?! The absolute fucking nerve of some people.....
So...I started lookig for another salon...but the timing was very bad, salons are so slow in the summer.
Nonetheless, it broke my heart...because I knew my dads wife was a spiteful, tacky bitch...but I was having a hard time believing my own father could treat me that way. I literally felt like my heart was going to break.
So I said goodbye, and closed my eyes, and walk out of another part of my life.
It was hard but I am strong. I'll be damned if I'll ever let an unaccepting, controlling jealous person erate me and attack my esteem.
But family is family, and it hurt like hell.
I felt like sharing, because it is cathartic. Some of my friends, like Sinjun, Nave, Kira and PhrougBhouy were there with me the whole time it was happening....holding my hand as I wept. They are awesome friends, and I am SO thankful to have them. My new family
I guess it is true...when a door closes, a window opens. I am thankful for these people, and all of the new SG members I have been meeting, and wanted to let you all knw that I think I am going to be ok, and it seems like I am finding my smile again.
Thanks for listening
hugs and kisses.....

Good words for us all.
No word yet. It can take a while, and I'm not really expectiing to get the job(s)... but it was very worth trying for. More likely better money and VERY likely better stability and overall job fun....
Have some smooches... cuz you rock!
