Or, at best, "so-so". I've been following this for a couple of weeks out of curiosity, looking at regions, markets and individual stores. At first, I've been having a "is it just me?" moment. Turns out I am not alone. Far from it, actually. Very depressing.
For those that like to ask "why don't you quit?", well, all things considered, I'd rather be employed. I get the feeling that the kind of people asking that question are not in the workforce, or maybe they are but they just storm out of the door at the first signs of adversity so they job-hop.
The kinds of people asking that question probably don't have a mortgage, cars, student loans, food, utilities, healthcare, savings and so on to pay for. They are either independently wealthy or, more likely, they are lazy slobs that depend on the taxpaying public to pay their way while they sit at home all day and troll random people.
Landing a new job doesn't happen overnight, at least if you are looking to set your sights higher than a fry cook. Since I am in management, I am aiming much higher than that, so my job search will take a month or two. Until then, I am biding my time and s---ing it up. I'm not just going to storm out if things don't go my way. I recognize that things are not getting better at this company and therefore, I am plotting my escape.
