Manager changes?

How often do managers seem to change in your store? Right now we have two bad ones that really need to go.

Store managers used to stay around in the same store for around 7 years or longer.  Co-managers stayed for about 4 or 5 years.  We're getting a new store manager.  The last two lasted less than a year each.  Co-managers seem to change almost weekly now.  If there's a problem with a store, corporate's answer is to just move people around.   They never stop to think that they might be the cause of the problem.

 And still another possible cause of the problem are the increasing-in-number human garbage 'employees' the retail and restaurant industries are getting today. I've done management work in both. I would never go back to either. It's the worst work ethic, dumbed-down ass clown time period I've ever seen in human beings, and I feel terrible for those stumbling into trying to manage this mess now.

Both are the problem. A lot of management is absolutely terrible, but so are a lot of employees. You can't manage if you get useless people who can't or refuse to work.

Its not just newbie employees that arent good. Some of the lifers are terrible too- except it is harder to get rid of them because of the union.
