My Brand Isn't Good Enough

Ya know, for a second, for a minute, for a few days...I really thought I would enjoy going back to Target. But I was sadly informed a few hours ago that I wasn't welcome back. In fact, it would be in my best interest to stay away. My brand isn't good enough. I never smile. My overall work experience for Target was poor. [On a side note, most of you would blow up at this point]. THey felt that when I left, I left because I had enough. When my former boss was telling me all of this, I didn't get mad. I could only feel one feeling.

Hurt.

For the last two years I sacrificed for that store. If my brand isn't good enough; the brand that takes crap and sucks it up, the brand that gives great guest service, the brand that encourages other team members, if that brand ain't good enough then NO BRAND IS SAFE.

I was so hurt because he told me that it was a group decision to not allow me to come back. That means that they ALL agreed that my performance was not up to par. You gotta be kidding me rite? I was there when they didn't have no one else, remember? I covered them so many times and was I ever TRULY REWARDED? I was GSTL (Guest Service Team Leader) for a whole summer and did they promote me? NO! They brought some women in from out side the corporation and they didn't even think anything of it.

Oh yeah I was devastated but you know what? I won't hold a grudge. I just gotta move on. It just sucks that it had to be like this. Shoot, if they say this about ME, the "rockstar", I would hate to hear what they say about the TRUE legends there, like Mike, and Gerald and Vanessa, Ms Valeria, all of those who are worked hard and over looked.

*Deep Breath and a Sigh*

Being rejected isn't a fun feeling. I tub of ice cream and a movie is in order. Well, maybe Thursday nite when finals are over.
