Is it better being a co manager then department head?
Than. Then is an adverb meaning at the time in question. First, I became a department head. Then, I became a co-manager.
Than is a conjunction used to compare two different choices. I like being a department head more than being a co-manager.
To the OP..
The one comfort you can take from this needlessly snarky smartass waste of response is knowing that, whomever posted it is obviously living in the bottom of a dumpster parked in the middle of a land fill. With a sewer running through it.
Or, maybe first reply was off topic, because this question had been asked and replied MANY times over. All the OP needs to do is look no more than few pages back and see the answers.
And couldn't help but noticing, you also didn't reply on topic. And neither did I, lol. Coz above reasons.

At least the first reply gave constructive advice. It may not be the advice the OP was asking for, but they may be thankful for it later.

You knew what they meant you could of responded with an answer or not responded at all, but wasted your time correcting their spelling. Why waste your time looking for flaws in others? It's obvious you don't get paid to do that or you wouldn't be anonymous.

I guess it just depends on whether you want to get paid weekly or monthly. It also depends on whether you want to work long hours or be guaranteed 40 hours a week. Leads get 40 hours a week and paid weekly. Leads have to work at least one day a week in the evening and the other 4 in the morning or vice versa. Co managers get paid salary (monthly) and work any where from 10-12 hours a day. Co managers also work in the evening then come back the next morning, get a day off, and have to do it again. Leads manage the department. Co managers manage the store.
I never see co managers doing anything useful, how exactly is their salary justified? Should be a 30k-35k job, 45k tops to those that actually solve problems, help departments, hold people accountable, and don't sit in the office all day on their phone, yeah I'm returning my hand held and I see you there doing jackshyt. Lol @ paperwork and emails being considered work. Sometimes running go backs and killing shippers, big deal try harder.
Anyway if you become a co manager then corporate can jerk you around store to store making your 10-12 hour shift become 12-14 if you have to commute farther to a different store. Department head can be in the same store for years, if you so choose to not transfer if offered. They can demote you if you start to really suck ass but not move you.
That's the biggest negative about being a co manger to me anyway.

Grocery Manager here. I work nights each night, get paid weekly, usually get 50 hours or more. In a way I'm like a fourth co-manager; keys, managing all facets of the store when the other co-managers/store manager isn't there, etc. Management manages the store, Grocery Managers make sure the store functions, and 90% of everyone else dicks around collecting a paycheck for doing nothing. 10% hard workers between various associates and department leads/heads, but being a Grocery Manager for a while it's basically being a Co-Manager in many ways except non-salaried.
