operational job is regarded as a routing job, hence you dont get your promotion as other in marketing.

Out of personal experience, this could mean that your employer might have a opportunity for you to prove yourself, that may lead to a promotion or a better position in the company. This message tels me that your employer have trust in you and your insight and wants your feedback or opinion about this that was referenced.

There are two types of work in every organisation. One is doing the legitimate work. The other is doing personal work of bosses or running errands for them. the second category enjoys the favour of bosses But for that you have to swallow your self respect. what would you prefer?

Sure, the promotion is yours.  You get a company car, a key to the executive washroom, and your name on the door.  \nGood Luck in your new career.

Only if the boss is a total idiot. I have supervised thousands of people in my career. If any of my employees offered me that, they would get fired, they would never get promoted. I don't respect anyone that would do that!

ANY job that requires you to pay money that is not for training purposes is NOT legit, end of story.

Probably might be that the manager has a bit of a power trip going on. Some people who are managers get a bit of power and it goes straight to their head. If it is a department manager then go to the store manager or HR. If it's the store manager then you might want to get a job elsewhere as that person will never change. Always make sure that you look after yourself, bottom line I guess is that it's only a job, plenty of others around!!

True, this isn't a place for advertising, but people do it all the time. Nor is it a place to look for employees, but if it's a legit offer then this post is better than many of the others I have seen get by.\n\nI am interested. But I am in the wrong state and not licensed. Good luck finding someone to become a positive addition to your community!

You work on commission. Is it a good idea? only if your personality fits that job. You could be having a hard time working at that place and have a hard time making money if you don't sell. You CAN make lots of money, it's just, it's risky, because if you don't sell, you don't eat.

I think it would be discrimination if you were qualified and they didn't hire you because you're overweight.  They could say they didn't hire you for another reason, and it might be hard to prove what the real reason was.

i know this annoys me also. what do they expect us to do we cant get a job without experience and we cant get experience without a job. why cant they just give you a trial period in the job to see if you can do it.

I guess so because at the time that the person got the job it was a job but now it's not a job but just because of that you can't just take the job or it benefits away from the other workers.

Wow--what an unusual question!  You sound to me like someone who associates moving up in an organization with a punishment.  You appear to suggest that remaining unmotivated, slovenly, and largely ignorant is preferrable to trying to improving your lot in life.  Is that what you really want?\n\nThe only benefit to a promotion is just more money and more responsibility.  It should be a jolt of confidence that your superiors believe you to be able enough to take on a more challenging position.  It's an affirmation that your knowledge and experience in your field has made you stick out in a positive way.\n\nYour life will be filled with challenges, both good and bad.  Now is the time for you to meet all of them head on--not trying to assess what the damage will be to your present state of mind.  That is a sure recipe for missing out on some of life's really great things.

Going after someone in your chain of command could be devasting for your career. Imagine if you were to go out and you had an arguement. work would be very uncomfortable the next day wouldn't it?

Ask your boss "So, when should I start with my training".  \n\nIF your boss has no plans for you at all, It will put him/her on the defensive.  Most people who get a promotion express an interest in more responsibility.  If you haven't expressed any interest, then he may not even think of you.  \n\nIF your boss actually though of you as a candidate, then you may just get it.

sounds like a nice idea- even if by the time they recieve it- they already hired someone else!  Maybe they will keep you in mind next time there is an opening if they dont hire you this time.

Well it all depends on your age.  However, most promotions come from taking on a project or assisting with something that needs done and that no one else is interested in doing.  Often times that will involve some possible overtime and extra work that was never requested by your boss.\n\nHowever, if you attempt such things and do not get promoted or get raises, then you may need to consider moving to another business.  Most big moves or jumps in pay come from going to another company.\n\nIf you are capable and willing to step up to the plate, age will often be overlooked.  Although you will still run into some people that are ageist so I cannot promise that it would completely not ever be a problem.
