OMG! So, it's been a month now and I did not run far away and as fast as I
could from this crazy person who only wants to pay 42% commission. Now, her
manager is just as crazy as she is and is a major cause of problems in the shop.
Anyway, have you ever met someone who says they want one thing but do another??
The owner said she closed her last salon because there was too much gossip and
drama going on. She says she wants a more professional atmosphere.
How can you have these things when you are comparing your professional staff to
discount salons? I have an appointment for a full set. It's booked for 1 1/2
hrs. She was like "What???? How can it take that long?" Then the new stylist
agreed with me and she said "You have got to be kidding. Walmart can get you
out in 45 minutes." This coming from someone who has only ever gone to a
discount salon to get her nails done.
I don't think she has any clue what a professional salon is. She told me and
the other tech that we were weird when we started asking for specific supplies
(like smaller acrylic brushes).
I could not believe I was being compared to a discount nail tech today. It made
my blood boil. I am a very outspoken person and it was all I could do to not
scream.
I have been looking every day for a new job. At first I was trying to give her
the benefit of the doubt but after today I know I can't stay there. It's tough
out there for everyone and I know that beauty services are suffering as well.
How can I build a clientele in this economy. Because right now I have nothing
to lose (other than my sanity). She seemed so cool and I thought she was going
to be a great boss. She seemed very receptive to more professional ideas. (
cough cough cough)
I am still dumbfounded!
Thanks for listening and you advice. I love this group of PROFESSIONALS!!
