Hey /adv/, my apologies if this doesn't qualify for a real thread on the board but I'm going for it anyway.
I recently got promoted to management at my job, it's not the fanciest place in the world but it's a good start for management experience.
I'm slowly but surely getting the basics, counting money, doing inventory, working the floor. As I've been learning there's a coworker that has been talking to me like I'm a 2 year old special needs child.
When I'm counting money, he says "anon you need to focus", which was fine the first two times I was doing it. But over the next two weeks he would continue to tell me to focus while talking to employees about farting and playing loud grunge music from his phone.
Last night, I've had enough and I'm going to confront the GM. He's over the usher department and they skipped a theater in cleaning which is fucked up because Christmas is the busiest day for us. He was running the crew while I hopped between departments. I came to the ushers and the GM confronted me saying the restrooms haven't been cleaned for 3 hours. It's my responsibility because I'm running the ushers. I have no problem getting chewed out by the GM, it's happened before when I was an usher. But what really got me was when he skipped the theater. His job was running the cleaning crew, they skipped the theater. One of the cleaning crew members is on podium and volunteered to go do it since it's a smaller theater. He said "nah anon can do it it's just a few cups." Ended up being one of the messiest theaters I'd seen yesterday and when I tried to get some help he didn't feel like pulling them from the mundane end-of-the-round task.
I'm debating on whether to confront my coworker or just tell the GM, since the GM is the only manager above us in the building. I don't want to be "that guy" in complaining, but I'm not a janitor anymore and I'm definitely not going to be talked to like a child.
