as of today i have resigned from my post as shop manager at the reptile shop on walsall road. i feel that given the attitude of the owner, i cannot work there anymore.

no matter how many suggestions i make the owner will still do whats best for him and not the animals. i cannot work like that so theres a reptile shop manager job going if anyone wants one!!!

Nice to hear you are putting your principles before your earnings. Well done mate and good luck!

[kevin cross]

well done to you mate, hope your not out of work for too long

[bosc888]

surely it would of been better to keep your job so at least you have a wage & would also be able to care for the animals, now the owner might well just employ someone who does'nt care.
in my opinion a silly move on your part but good luck finding another job

[bronzeyis200]

Wrong move in the current economic crisis IMO

Also, while you are there at least you know what you are doing and can give the animals a decent level of care.

The owner will probably give the job to the first person who can float up a till and tell the staff what to do irrelevant of any rep knowledge.

bad move mate, what with unemployment as it is at the moment no one can afford to walk out of a job, unless you have another lined up then ignore me.

good on u mate u dont no me but i no u and i now how u care about the reps and i no the owner is all about money not the animails he sells good luck in the future mate

is he the owner or just the manager. personally i would have stayed and made sure the reps were all well cared for when i was working, and if he is only the manager i would have spoken to the actual owner.

cheers guys,

ratking i do remember you matey lol
already got some things lined up. this was the point of me quitting i wasnt allowed to look after the animals to my best ability because the boss wanted it done his way.

e.g. i got a half hour b$£"ocking because i refused to use frontline spray on hatchling corns. he did it himself and then i had another 'telling off' when 6 out of 8 start showing neurological problems.

you cant trust him with anything and it will now be a shop on my to avoid list!
