And the world keeps spinning.

Let's cut to the chase.

You got eyes for days, I got words for weeks.

Hi, the name is Lyn.

The words I can’t say at work because then I’d feel like a simp.

For most of them who won’t ever read this. And the rest who might stumble upon it..

Behind the scenes of my yelling and frustration, I go home every night thanking you all individually in my prayers. And I would honestly not have made it this far if I didn’t have such a strong team. And it’s crazy to think you all look at me as someone who could lead you to succeed. It’s crazy to think that I was even given the opportunity to do this. To most, this might seem a little overboard for the job we work. But I find myself to be someone who’s very dedicated and if you give me one thing, be sure that shit will get done in time, and beyond your expectations you’ve set on me. I can only go up from here, and so will all of you. And just know that when I seem upset, and when I’m constantly riding you, it’s not because I want to be Hitler, it’s because I need some sort of order within these four walls. It’s because I want to be acknowledge for having such a successful store, because I can only then use all of my 10 fingers to point at who’s responsible for this greatness: You. Not me, but all 15 of you who helped me. I can’t do it on my own, and I don’t expect you to do it alone either, so I will be here, and supportive, and bitchy as possible until you decide to put your 2 weeks in. But until then, just know that our individual roles in this job are exactly like a relationship between two people. I don’t promise it’s going to be a smooth ride, but I do promise that we’ll be able to work through it. I don’t promise that I can be perfect, but I do promise that I can accept everyone’s imperfections and mistakes, and in return that you all do the same. I promise that I will get upset, but I also promise that I will not disregard all your efforts into helping me run this store. This is for our present disagreements and future disagreements. My only main point is: Don’t be a bitch when shit gets rough. Because I love you all, like I love my family and at the end of shift… we’ll get over it.

Sincerely, your Store Manager.
