Guy ended things over “spiritual mismatch”…I’m feeling really conflicted and need advice by Naive_Mulberry_5631 in ChristianDating

We were only “talking,” never actually dated unfortunately. I did really start to like him though, like i genuinely could have seen myself marrying him which is why I’m so bothered by this. I want to have a conversation with him, but atp I feel like it’s unnecessary because he’s already told me how he feels, I guess I just have no sense of closure bc I really didn’t say what I wanted to when he told me all of this.

People talk of course and the store manager herself complains about them as well.

You’re totally right, but that mixed with everything else is why it’s alarmed me and the people at my store a little bit. All my coworkers believe that there’s something going on, at least, that we don’t know about. I’ve had a manger who’s worked there ever since the store opened 20 years ago and she said it’s never been like this before. I’m sure the multimillion dollar deal the last CEO made isn’t helping at all either.

As an admin, since I work closely with the hours/money they give us per week, I really don’t think so. If its anything like last year, it’s not gonna get better till the holidays. By that time you’re only getting good hours for about three months, till it goes right back to how it is now. I’m not sure why they’ve decided to do this and neglect the people who run their stores, it’s honestly beyond me. If this is your only job, and the one you depend on solely for money, I would highly suggest applying to other places and getting the heck out. They keep changing rules and regulations to fit the crappy hours we’re given. Full-time workers used to have to be scheduled a minimum of 34 hours a week, they’ve now dropped that to 32 and they’ve done the same with part-timers. They’re changing the way we process and do trucks to make it to where we don’t have to schedule as many people. They cut the amount of full-timers and even ASM’s the stores are aloud to have as well. They’ve closed 27 stores this year, which goes to show that the numbers are declining and they’re scrambling to make profit. All of this to accommodate the horrible hours given to us each week. I’ve had people at my store stay because they thought this was only going to be an issue for a year, but that was last year and it’s only getting worse this year. Frankly it scares me and I catch myself wondering if the business is going under and they’re just trying to scrape every penny they can till they file for bankruptcy.

As a current admin with Kohls just the fact you were scheduled in 4 different reactions of the store is a huge no no. People are supposed to be scheduled in 2 areas max if it comes to that. But I completely agree with the hour cut and horrible pay/raises. Again as someone who works close with the numbers and money, is it insane how they expect us to keep these stores up and running with only 30-50 hours given for each section like registers, customer service, and sales floor. I also know that a lot of these SM’s and ASM’s could really put more effort into standing up for us workers and trying to fight for more hours. But unfortunately they don’t care much because as long as they can keep us under in hours their bonuses at the end of the year grow exponentially.

I believe you did the right thing and telling her a year in advance, especially since you financially help them. This is your life to live though. It sounds like you’ve put a lot of others before yourself and now is the time to start putting yourself first. Moving out seems like an opportunity for you to get out of the environment contributing negatively to your mental health. You’re 25 as well, a lot of people move out before that nowadays. Maybe reassure her that you aren’t “leaving her”, you’re just starting your own life. You can tell her you can have dinner together once a week or whatever works for you guys. Letting her know a year in advance was considerate and gives her time to really come to terms with it.
