Almost a Manager

They are short one manager at Kit Kat's work. So they are borrowing a manager from another store. Nobody likes that setup. The big boss asked Kit Kat's manager about potential promotions from within. It seems the choice was Kit Kat. The visiting manager agreed with this assessment.

I took a look at a salary web site. Assistant retail store managers make some decent money in our area. Nine out of ten such managers make more than $12.50 an hour. Bamm. That's a lot more than Kit Kat makes right now. I thought it would be good if Kit Kat could rocket her earnings up to that level.

The was only one problem with this plan. Kit Kat was not excited about being a manager. It is already hard enough to be an associate at her work. With school starting up, Kit Kat wants her job to get easier not harder. Today Kit Kat went in and broke the bad news. She had to just say no.

The good news is that Kit Kat's hectic schedule for this week got reduced in hours. I guess that's because she does not have to spend any time training to be a manager this week. Management experience is good. There will be plenty of time for Kit Kat to be a manager later.
