So, in the last two days, my ice cream shop boss has decided I’m incompetent. She gives night shifts to the people she thinks are “strong.” I have worked mostly night shifts since I started. Also, night shifts go faster and are more hours.

This week I worked four shifts: one day, two closing, and one ten-hour shift that runs through peak time.

Next week I am working four shifts: all of them are days. Every single one. Not a single close. Nothing later than nine.

Yesterday she told me that this weekend will be tough because we’re losing a lot of strong people who have supposedly been carrying me through all the hard shifts, and if I don’t know how to make all the desserts I should really learn to. (Note: there are only about ten not-very-complicated desserts, I have been working there for over a month. I am not a retard, therefore I know them all.)
Today, I went to check my schedule and I have all easy shifts.
I think this happened because I said something about night shifts being stressful. I think she took this to mean I couldn’t handle it.

Believe me, I can handle it.

It’s annoying because on the one hand I don’t actually care about this job (I have another, better job), but on the other hand, I am good to things and am used to approval by authority figures. Teachers always liked me as a kid, not because I sucked up (I didn’t), but because I was a good student. Previous bosses have always liked me. My new boss thinks I’m great. I’m a good worker.

It’s really probably a testament to how badly the place is run. But it still bugs me
