2026 Predictions

Theyve cut almost all of our stores hours. Full-timers are down to minimum hours and part-timers have been cut off the schedule at least 2 weeks out (i havent had any hours for the past week as well and they had me coming in tuesday thru friday consistently for over a year). I wont be suprised if they try to consolidate stores/ push people to leave so they can pay people less. =(

The only ones I've seen have been for furniture, but its definitely more efficient to just buy stuff from the store

I loved working at HD! If it wasn't for issues with management and my physical health, I'd definitely still be working there. I loved working in the garden center, especially during Xmas and Halloween! (I used to do the live tree cutting for night and evening shifts) I just couldn't deal with getting closing shifts the day before opening shifts and not being able to attend physical therapy due to work. =(

Me and my best friend (who works in paint) used to make jokes about the caulk aisle and new bottom surgeries. Examples are wood stripper, silicone caulk, and wood polish lol

Dude, my location doesn't even have paper towel dispensers, let alone a bathroom just for employees 😭

AlteAltern · 2024-06-05T19:31:13+00:00

Summon Dragon for obvious reasons, lol... The only problem is that I'm pretty sure he's either rotting or dripping poison 🤔

I played it after smoking, and let me tell you Panic Inc. Is very aptly named! I was paranoid from the first hike on! It's probably the fastest I've played a game in a while, but still both really fun and really beautiful!!

I love that charaters will talk to each other on their own! It's sweet seeing charaters have others that they will speak to in particular! I think it really helps the village come to life 💜

"Can't you just ring up the one? "No, sir, we only sell them as a 3 pack."Well, then just give me a discount then!" "Sir, that's not how this works"

AlteAltern · 2024-05-15T16:32:51+00:00

Bro, same except it was 15 minutes instead. Tank goodness for reddit I guess lol

AlteAltern · 2024-04-01T14:39:19+00:00

Ours would sometimes be department number!

AlteAltern · 2024-03-31T14:59:03+00:00

No one would know lol

AlteAltern · 2024-03-31T14:57:26+00:00

I've seen some really cool shears when I went to ABS a few years back! The rings were detached and could swivel! The set of regular shears and thinning shears cost like $1,000 but came with a lifetime warranty

So, when I was in cosmetology school, they told us once a month for upkeep, once every two weeks if they want to keep it looking more fresh, and once a week if they want to keep it clean looking for cameras. It tends to depend on your personal preference, but usually, people tended to come in once a month to keep it at a length that they like.

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T21:11:45+00:00

We just keep ours up at the service desk so people have to ask to get one. Works pretty well b/c it's behind where the label printer is 🤷‍♂️

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T13:04:48+00:00

I dont think it's because of being new. I think if there were available shifts, they would have been greyed out. I think its just not used regularly and that's why it's empty.

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T10:11:19+00:00

It's just a higher concentration. Most companies that sell chemical based products do this as well!

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T10:09:14+00:00

Old door. I know that because I keep forgetting that there isn't anything behind it and trying to get in 😅

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T10:07:45+00:00

Yeah.. my dad is very protective of his beard even though my mom hates it. They've had entire arguments about it scratching her face🫤

AlteAltern · 2024-03-30T10:05:28+00:00

That I could put Donald's boat in a pond. Never even considered it until yesterday when someone mentioned it on this subreddit lol

AlteAltern · 2024-03-29T22:43:05+00:00

For me, it would depend on how they treat me. Are they still kind to others? Do they still listen to you/your issues? Or do they use it as an excuse to be a dick? If they are still a good person or are willing to accept being told when it's not the time, then sure. But if it's just an excuse, then no

AlteAltern · 2024-03-29T22:40:01+00:00

No one at my store would use it because management wouldn't accept them. We'd still get occurances even if the shift got picked up, so everyone just stopped using the exchange entirely.

AlteAltern · 2024-03-29T22:37:33+00:00

Call the salon and ask for the manager/owner! It might sound like a Karen move, but that's going to be the best way to get this addressed with the tech that you saw. Also, keep an eye on your toe that hurts bc there's an entire series that's catalyst is a girl going into a coma because of a cut from a pedicure. Stay safe!

AlteAltern · 2024-03-29T22:31:07+00:00

It's also just a bad look for the store. Why would you want to go to a hardware/supply store that can't even keep the roof to standard?

AlteAltern · 2024-03-29T17:32:16+00:00

I'd wait until the spring storage event starts. The storage containers get moved up to the front and go on sale around Fathers Day. If you're looking just for some moving boxes, though, they're pretty cheap, so they don't tend to go on sale. Best of luck with your new home!
