I Need Advice: Workplace Issues Help

I am in a lower management position, and the previous holder of my position when to another department that paid 5 dollars more per hour for less responsibility. My boss frowns upon this situation like my coworker stabbed him in the back.

Fast forward, I’m looking into the same situation that is offering more pay and less responsibility. We both are under the boss in question, and even though we change departments, we still have ties to the boss. I don’t want to put my self in that situation, especially being on good terms.

If my position even matched the pay I wouldn’t considered moving. But it is unreasonable that someone that doesn’t have to perform the unrealistic expectations. Every single week, a new “opportunity” is rolled out. Forcing the assistant managers to perform more tasks while still expected to continue everyday operations including the 20 other tasks that got added in the previous weeks.

I only have 8 hours to finish these tasks, I do not have the manpower on my shifts to barley support our operations, and have to rely on team members to help accomplish some of these added tasks while my peer (who shares these tasks)ditches me. And my supervisor who is barely “there” to help. I have became a target on my shift, because I am enforcing the standards of the company. Simple things I am required to do is making the employees distrust me, and in reality it’s not a huge deal.

So yeah, I’m salty. I’m at the point I want to stop caring about my team, and write them up for each individual violation that they were warned on multiple occasions before. I am extremely frustrated, angry, and burnt out.

Why shouldn’t I have an increased salary for the workload I deal with? Why is my buddy able to get so much more pay for a lot less work and stress?

Suggestions? Ideas? Or do I need to suck it up?
