I finally work for a living

Firs off he's a dog. And no, I'm not an obsessed with my pet kind of person, but he's the most steady thing in my life and it makes for a good title. Right now.... scratch that... Constantly my life is in a state of upheaval, but from what I gather so is everyone's. Most recently though I started a new job, a promotion really, and it's been a tough but not impossible challenge. I'm the 2nd highest manager at a retail chain, and through other changes there is no current store manager. I'm doing the work of 2 people (I'm not bragging, really) and my support managers unfortunately are about 5 years behind current policy and procedures. So there's another full time job in getting everyone there up to date and up to muster, with the constant looming threat of an Official visit or even worse, an audit. I get 65 year old women smiling at me and saying "oh of course, I'll do better next time" and then muttering under their breath as they walk away about how they've Always done it and who am i anyway? I can deal with that too. I know that in my 5 years with the company I've had as many different managers come in and do everything different from the last guy, and then leave without anyone looking up or shedding a tear when they're gone. I gotta go the cliche route and say "well I'm gonna do things differently! I'm gonna get things done!" I guess that has yet to be seen.
