Disrespectful supervisor?
Hello retail community!
I am here to ask for advice. I have a supervisor who is very disrespectful to all of us employees - including to customers. This person micro manage us, yells at us, humiliate us in front of customers, gets angry if we ask to take our breaks or go to the bathroom, and has very bad mood swings (one minute is happy and the next 10min you're being yelled at).
Everyone has reported this treatment to the store manager but nothing is done. We are only told to be understanding and respectful of having a young supervisor. I reported this supervisor to HR and the retaliation from this supervisor towards me have been crazy. Since nothing was done the supervisor feels even more comfortable to be abusive. A few of my coworkers have quit (old and new employees) and even the new employees have reported the supervisor. The only reason I am staying is because I need the income ans haven't been able to get another job yet.
Is this normal on young supervisors? What would you guys do? Also, I am interested on reading any personal horror stories you guys may have at your current or old workplace.
Thanks!
