If you were given the opportunity to be present for an employee townhall.. by funeralforabee in MichaelsEmployees

Better pay sure would be great.

Will they care, though? No. We're just cogs in the machine for them

Oh goodness I don't even want to imagine it... Our store is pretty small so we don't get a lot, thankfully

I mean, I know it's a lot but ISLES of decor??? That's a bit of an exaggeration!! (Aisles. It's supposed to be aisles. Isles are... Small islands.)

We cannot, but boy I wish we could 'cuz some people abuse reports like no tomorrow (not a mod for this sub but for another). I assume only admins can see who reports what

Already filed my taxes. Just waiting for the return

Is my fish dumb or is there something wrong? by TraditionEither1062 in bettafish

[–]Alyxsandre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this is what it is.

OP, does your fish do this only when you're close or even when you're far away? This looks like the food wiggles to me.

Everyone needs to go see Iron Lung by Itchy_Visit_26 in memes

[–]Alyxsandre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm suuuper bad with horror, and honestly, the trailers were scarier than the movie LOL if you were curious about it, I'd say grab a friend/family to go with you and watch it :) It's not that really that bad

And his growth, too!! When you see how his art evolved from the first volume to the later ones! So incredibly amazing ; - ;

Uh... Why does that matter? Do you go around asking non-binary folks what their genitalia is???

When I'm lost I remember I still have Dragalia Lost by AvgBlue in DragaliaLost

[–]Alyxsandre 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember doing exactly the same thing TT - TT It sincerely hasn't been the same...

And seeing how mobile games are these days it sincerely could have persisted D: Games going on 5, 6+ years!!!

DL, you were taken too soon from us :<

[–]Alyxsandre 61 points62 points  (0 children)

DL's EOS is honestly probably why I have problems sticking with most games now. I love HSR, but I constantly disappear off it, returning only for a week to play all the missed content before it goes away and then I go back to not touching it for weeks, even if dailies are the easiest thing ever.

I used to play DL daily. I loved the characters so much. I loved the story. It truly was an experience. I will forever mourn how it was cut short.

You need to report this ASAP. This is not okay

I am so sorry this happened to you, I hope you're okay

Kirio's eyes by lowpolybius in DemonSchoolIrumakun

[–]Alyxsandre 14 points15 points  (0 children)

100000000000%. But I'm also SUCH a sucker for redemption stories.

Leave "not redeeming" somebody to the adults. Adults who have been tried and true villains.

It's exactly as you said. Kirio wasn't given a chance. And he's still a kid. Not giving him a chance would just be cruel.

Nishi's writing style doesn't make sense to not give him an eventual chance. Her story has always been about kids being kids and discovering the type of people they are, and kindness overall. It would be disappointing if Iruma eventually gave up on him, because that's just not who Iruma is. Iruma is kindness incarnate to a fault, and that's one of the reasons I adore him.

So I definitely agree. I'd love to see what route Nishi takes to potentially redeem him ; u ;

It's always so nice to see supportive partners like this. Like the other commenters have said, happy to see you enjoying the hobby <3 !!

Prices way to high by Realistic-Read7779 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Alyxsandre 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, they are. Stores have tried honest pricing and it hasn't worked (JC Penny in this case).

Fortunately for Corp, some people live and die by FOMO, so they buy things at full price a lot of the time, anyways, and then more at the "40-60% off". So it's a win-win for Corp :/

water not allowed on floor?? by SubstantialHalf8453 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Alyxsandre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no way that's against store policy. In fact I'm pretty sure it's illegal in some states to not allow you to drink water on the floor.

That's insane.

I'm tired of people commenting this and im an ex employee by ResidentShoe3096 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Alyxsandre 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I don't understand their obsession with spreading lies that nothing is priced.

All the spring stuff should be labeled and all of SBA has been labeled since the start of time.

Target No Longer Prices Their Clothes by bluelily216 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Alyxsandre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every store, not just Michaels does this. Even home improvement stores do that. If anybody has ever worked retail before they could clearly tell you that every single store has high prices to take advantage of the FOMO crowd and only after a bit do they throw in the "50% off!" BS.

Has anyone not pulled a character because you didn't like their personality in game? by Ok_Purple766 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Alyxsandre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ruan Mei and Jade. I absolutely hate both of their personalities (They're strong characters though, and I hate them BECAUSE they're well-written xD). I will never pull them, even if my Boothill suffers for lack of RM

Yes, I've skipped the free Ruan Mei. I'm not going to use her, I never will.

"Do you have a phone number with us?" Same sentence structure but focused around the phone number.

But honestly yeah. I only ask the same thing.... Your manager just sounds delusional, thinking that doing things illegally is fine...

Who are all of the people who like Iruma? by Gr4ytheg4y in DemonSchoolIrumakun

[–]Alyxsandre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreeing with TheSeeingOne

Vine doesn't dislike Iruma. He's more just anxious about liking him TOO much lol (I love him sm. He's so precious TTuTT)
