Rant: They're really pushing us to do MORE with LESS!

I'm so burned out. The workload has been insane lately, and they just keep piling on more. My team's already short-staffed, and they're talking about 'efficiency improvements' which translates to 'doing three people's jobs.' I know retail is always demanding, but this is beyond ridiculous. The constant pressure to hit unrealistic targets while they cut resources is making me want to scream. Seriously considering dusting off my resume. Anyone else feeling this way?

Totally get it. I was in the same boat last year. The 'efficiency improvements' are just a way to squeeze more out of us. Start documenting EVERYTHING you do in a day. Literally, log every task and how long it takes. When they inevitably ask why something isn't done, you'll have concrete proof of your workload. It's a pain, but it protects you and might make them rethink things when they see the reality.

Heard. Honestly, retail is a revolving door. If you're already thinking about leaving, start looking now. There are other places that value their employees, or at least pay more to deal with the same BS. Don't let them grind you down. Your mental health is worth more than whatever discount you get. Good luck with the resume dusting!
