I worked in a framing/crafts store for a couple years as a sales manager. I was consistently tops in the district in all key measurables, but my SM tried to write me up every month, because she made my numbers higher than some entire stores were required to hit. Why? So she could "reallocate" sales to her weaker-performing associates, who she protected. I had to print extra copies of all of my sales and take them home every night, otherwise I'd find a $1,000 framing job had been "adjusted" by her, and given to the weaker sales idiots. To this day, it's the only job I've ever had that I simply walked out of at the end of a shift and never went back.
Retail Robin: If There's No Benefit To Me, Why?
I am a custom framer in a craft supply chain store and a big part of my job is sales. I am constantly pushed to sell more, sell bigger, and add upgrades but I am not commission based so its hard for me to really push things on people when I know that I has no effect on my pay. --Retail robin
