Nia was a stubborn employee, but her recent appointment at the store had turned her into a strict and unbearable boss. She survived until she had the idea to blame and fire the former caretaker.
It has been a week since Nia received a promotion, and she still can’t believe it.
She is now the general manager of one of the centers of the fashion giant.
Years before her promotion, Nia already had many ideas on how to improve the store if given the chance, and she kept them in a file.
That morning, the file was proudly placed on her desk as she addressed the staff just before closing time.
The employees responded with nods, knowing looks, and a few kind words of thanks.
However, the staff was offended by such categorical determination. It would not be easy for the employees to work in an unhealthy atmosphere where the slightest fault, whether intentional or unintentional, would deprive them of the money that, in most cases, covered their bills.
They had followed with admiration the journey of an employee who had started out as an intern and worked her way to the top.
One of the company’s former employees, Victor, aged 68, who was always late for personal reasons, tried to oppose the new director. The woman immediately fired him.
It might have been Victor’s last day of work as a caretaker. The next day, something incredibly important happened to him.
Furious with Nia, Mr. Gordon, the owner of the multi-million dollar chain of stores, appointed Victor as regional director, on whom she depended.
A new chapter begins in the lives of Victor, Nia, and the store.
Victor began to manage the store, while Nia became his right-hand person.
The collaboration of these two people ensured a prosperous future for the store throughout its history.
