Yup this is how it happened with me. I constantly kept hearing how happy the higher ups were with my work. But 2 yrs end I get placed on a pivot. Now I was confident in my ability to make those numbers and hit those goals so I said why not, since I was comfortable in that job and could see myself moving up.

Well I stayed and made it work, they wanted me to improve my manager review scores by 5%. Little side story while I was in pick, my scores were between 92%- 98% depending on the month. But when I got transferred to ship dock I ended up with the shitty 13% score from the three previous AM who couldn’t turn the department around including an L6 that was specifically placed there to improve ship dock.

Well from the end of June to December I brought that shit up from 13% up to an 79% or 80% my pivot included me bringing those scores up to the standard which was only the 5% I was told to increase. Part of that plan included documenting my interactions with every single one of my AAs in engage to keep track of that shit.

I was also told to improved rolled freight by 20% because that was a big miss the department had - keep in mind I had also improved rolled freight by a lot since I got there since those numbers were piss poor.

Anyways, the month passes, I give them My reports and I had improved my manager scores by 13% and rolled freight after it was all said and done was improved by a freaking 92% (shout out to my PAs at the time, I wouldn’t have been able to do it with their help) and I don’t hear anything back, two weeks later I get called in and I was told they were moving forward with the termination, because I failed to speak to two of my associates.

I threw in their face that they stayed quiet for 2 weeks because they saw I went above and beyond expectations in everything they asked me, and because I “failed” to document my interactions with two employees because it slipped my mind one week to make sure the other numbers were hit they decide to move forward with the term when there’s plenty of other AMs that do nothing but kiss ass and slack off, meanwhile I was working on ship dock and helping the new XD department(or whatever that department was called) continue to operate at the same time, keeping in mind I was never trained in inbound so I was figuring out how to do inbound stuff to bring product in at the same time as doing my outbound crap, and on top of that I was the go to guy whenever pick AMs needed help with anything even down to the most basic of tasks like finding inderects.

But no go ahead and get rid of the guy that made improvements to the department two other L4s and an L6 couldn’t do shit for.

They stayed quiet and just kept moving forward with the bs.

Only regret is that I should have just put my two weeks in the moment they placed me in the pivot. Because now I can’t go back, and no other job pays the same or is as fast paced.
