More forced volunteerism

Two days ago, I was asked to voluntarily go to inbound. I told him no thanks. My brand new manager asked me why not and I told him learning something new does not benefit me financially; it just puts me on a list to do another job that I could be terminated for if I could not meet the standards!

He told me if I didn't volunteer, next week the other manager would force me to go to pick. I told him I was going to tell him the same thing: I did not put in for a transfer.

HR and upper mgmt are the people who are fostering this attitude where managers don't respect their employees at all!
