'They were not happy': Employee quits according to their old notice period when employer refuses to give them a new contract
You can't have your cake and eat it too—and the people who work for you are people, not cake. I don't really know exactly how to unpack that statement further… but let's just say that you shouldn't be surprised when your workers want greater compensation in exchange for the increased responsibility you've been giving them. If they're doing the job of a manager already, make them a bloody manager.
The amount of hoops that retailers want their employees to jump through in order to achieve a promotion is insane, making them take on tasks far above their pay grade under the guise of "training" with the carrot of a promotion (that they'll never actually see) dangled on a string of moving goalposts.
This worker finally received a raise for the work they had been doing for the preceding six months, but as retailers often do, they put off actually giving him a new contract to reduce their accountability. Then, when the worker quit according to the notice period of the contract that they were still on—instead of the one they never received—the employer made a "surprised Pikachu" face.
