what happens when a store manager gets fired? just wandering if they can or not and what happens?

By store manager I assume you mean STL.
Yes they can.
ASANTS.

I'm sure there are folks who can tell you tales of how it worked at their store.

Usually the most experienced ETL will be ‘in charge’ until you get a replacement STL. Expect very frequent DTL visits. Usually takes at least a month, but can take longer for a replacement.

Sounds like my store. Right now an ETL is in charge the store director was just performances out. They put their 2 weeks in and was gone in 2 days.

A ploy that Spot has used numerous times since I've been with them: When an ETL or STL is leaving or gone, they bring in a new person to "train" or "assist" the store until a new replacement is hired and installed. A lot of the time that "ETL trainee" or "ETL assistant" is in fact the replacement brought in on the DL to observe how the TMs perform and the store operates so they can decide what changes need to be made in operations or personnel. My store is going through this currently.

Its up to the DTL...

They can issue the remaining ETLs to take over STL roles and duties until a permanent replacement is made.
Or they can have another STL from another store fill in 1-2 days a week.
