Managing Like a Hippie

This past Friday our district manager Dave came in the store. He can be a real shit, real intense and can say some really mean things. He told one girl one time that she looked like a whore because she was wearing mascara. I havent seen the guy since my interview with him and after hearing all these stories I make sure I'm not wearing any make up at all, and I'm decked out head to toe in Hollister attire. He makes me really nervous, his prescence makes the whole store nervous. I heard reports he had Danica crying in the back room, and he had been chewing Dan a new asshole. So I get to floor supervising and trying to stay away from him but still look like I'm working hard. He comes up to me trying to be chummy and slaps me on the back puts his arm around me and starts giving me pointers and telling me what I'm doing wrong, and his thoughts on how to run a store. Then he looks at me weird and says "how can I say this as funny as possible. You manage like a Hippie." I take offence and I say "I'm no hippie." He doesnt respond but keeps on talking, "yeah you manage like a Hippie your too laid back. Hippies dont run businesses. Well small ones, you know what I'm saying?" I respond with "Oh you mean headshops," trying to crack a joke with him. He looks at me deadpan and says "Never say stuff like that infront of the brandreps. You need to step up your intensity." He continues on but my feelings are hurt, and I"m thinking he better watch the way he speaks to his employees no wonder there is such a high turnover for MIT's. I go up to Dan later and I'm like do you think I'm a hippie? He starts lauging and responds you graduated from UPS didnt you, thats nothing but hippie a school. It gets around that Dave called me a hippie and Justin swears he's going to wear his dirty hippie shirt to work next time. I can honestly say I dont like it when Dave stops in. I guess what he said to some of the other employees is much worse. Oh well he needs to be a little more laid back, it would help him out.
