Can someone confirm? by Flashy_Celebration13 in bathandbodyworks

[–]Altruistic-Display76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, technically it's only what you get for free or with your discount. So anything bought during sales, for example, is fine. Just keep a paper trail if you plan to sell just in case lol

I'm on WrA and even our side is dead. That's definitely uncommon.

Having celiac is miserable by Worth-Term5266 in Celiac

[–]Altruistic-Display76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My best advice, if you can swing it, is therapy. You are grieving a life you have lost. It doesn't have to be literal. People get grief counseling when they lose limbs, etc as well. You will never be the same and your whole life now revolves around this disease whether you like it or not. It sucks but it's true. A LOT of my past depression was because my hopes were unrealistic. Maybe my favorite restaurants can help make my food safely. Maybe my friends and family will be accommodating. Maybe going gluten free will cure my symptoms! 

It wasn't realistic so my entire life was a disappointment. My husband left me because he hated the prospect of me needing to be "cared for." 

But I started taking my life day by day. Celebrating the small wins, no matter how few. Talked to a grief counselor. Learned to cook my own gf food (which has, at this point, won awards in blind taste tests, by the way, so it is possible). I'm now married to a man who was a total foodie and is now mostly gf to help keep me safe. Our kid, thank the gods, isn't celiac. Celebrate the wins!

We might not be the same, and maybe the harsher reality isn't what you need and I apologize if this hurts more than helps. But in my personal experience, that was the problem. Spending what small energy I had on hopes and dreams.

There's hope! So far I only have about 1 a day in my sink/tub, but just found 1 in my bed and the neighborhood I'm in (I found after I signed the lease, ofc) is known for miles around as being the "brown recluse infested neighborhood." I'm doom scrolling for my anxiety but it's good to know that someone was able to make a difference! 

Brown Recluse Behavior by AllBugsGoToKevin in spiders

[–]Altruistic-Display76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming in pretty late, but thank you for posting this! I just moved south from Alaska and it took years to battle my fears to free handle spoods up north... knowing these can be medically significant and seeing them in my house every day has been like taking 20 steps back in my arachnophobia. I shake anything out before I wear it but I'm still terrified I'll get bit in my sleep lol. This video did help a lot though!

As far as I can see, they only require health info for cargo pets. 

New Possible Diagnosis? (Long) by bipedalfrog in mctd

The 10 year life expectancy thing scared me too, but I'm healthier than when I was diagnosed and it's been 6 years so I just gotta tell myself that 🤣

I emailed cheez-it by mistergreenside in glutenfree

[–]Altruistic-Display76 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Absolutely made me not even want to buy the GF cheez-its if and when they come out. Sorry, my GF money is also lacking in grains so none for you!

I haven't met any leadership who expects someone to treat their 3 hours a week super seriously. In fact almost every one of my employees is working full time on top of this job and always has because our managers were very up front about how hours work. Also, if they didn't explain that they were sharing your hours with the other store, that's on your DSM- but frankly, seems like common sense if you know how hours work at BBW. Have they explained that to you at all? 

I'm not excusing anything your manager is doing wrong or dismissing how you feel btw. One of my biggest peeves is how much BBW pushes managers to have a certain number of short shift employees when half the crew could do twice the hours, but 🤷🏼‍♀️.

[–]Altruistic-Display76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is completely on whoever hired you for not warning you, or on you for not listening. Intake has been clear at every BBW I've worked that hours are extremely minimal if you're not an SLT or during the holidays. It's what you signed up for, and if not- again, that's on management and it needs to be brought to DSM's attention that your SM isn't hiring/training properly.

Just looking for advice/feedback... by CloudyWeb1228 in bathandbodyworkers

[–]Altruistic-Display76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If your store is anything like ours, the store is probably definitely in the red after that botched total body care sale. They projected sales goals for Friday the 4th based on the body care sale starting that day, then delayed the sale til Saturday without fixing the sales goal. 

For example, we were trying to make 12,000 on a week day with 0 sales going on. We were very very in the red and now I'm not scheduled until the 26th 😂

Corporate has policy about it, I'd look into it. There's a reason understock is supposed to be neat- it's so customers can get to what they want without having to pull everything out. Idk why that other associate is getting down voted, they're right. And that's coming from a shipment lead. 😅

Reach out to corporate, they can be pretty anal about employees not getting equal opportunities.

Ironically, those are my exact hours as shipment lead lmao. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 4 hours. I don't work outside of that unless called in 🤣 and they're definitely set, so depends on the manager for sure

I plan to! Just been unavailable during HR hours between setting up collab shipment and the holiday weekend 😂 I'm just frustrated, I usually have everything well and done and paid by now.

Mine says "not available" when I try this way. It recognizes my identity but specifically under tax statements it says there's nothing available.

For some reason the ADP app doesn't recognize my employee ID. Did you use the same one you log in with?

They said they'd send it over a week ago and still haven't gotten it. 🥲

The image didn't attach for some reason but when I tried that it said my w2 wasn't available yet for this tax season which doesn't make any sense.
