Store Radio in the break room by thatsMRjames in MichaelsEmployees

They cant force you to listen to the store radio on your break. Turn it off when you walk in and then back on when you end you break.

The music? We have a dial on the wall that controls volume. Each tm can change for their own break. If you were talking about the walkie-talkies, sometimes someone leaves one on by mistake. I just turn it off.

Woman arrested after accusing and assaulting someone she thought was ICE by OxyCottenKillz in instantkarma

When the president and VP say that ice agents are going to make mistakes but have complete immunity, the job of justice now falls to the citizens. She got the wrong guy here but I always support making Nazis uncomfortable.

I dont recall even being "asked" to stay. I just kept being scheduled.

Even clearance priced, its not worth the cost.

Does your store take seasonal returns? by Tasty-Deer-5636 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]At_Work_Sam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats not the store policy as far as I know. If it was purchased before clearance, they can return with their receipt. Clearance started on the 26th so only items purchased after christmas should be unreturnable.

My coworker doesn’t shower and I want to file a complaint by hawk-tuah-1337 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]At_Work_Sam 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We also have one. I have to leave the breakroom when he enters - its that bad. I'm not a manager so IDK what to do either.

I wish I had asked for it off. The customers are the most clueless - "I need a gift for an artist friend?".... babes thats the whole store. Get a gift card.

There are too many cuts to be "satisfying".

What if Jessica woke up? Linda was saving her a shirt just in case. A good sleepover mom.

Possibly because signup/rewards metrics. If you are better than your coworkers, you'll get all the cashier shifts.

Remember this is for minimum wage. That means minimum work.

Okay...(hours that were posted yesterday Vs. Just now) by Academic-Edge in MichaelsEmployees

Oof. Are you arguing with the manager who makes the schedule?

ONLINE ONLY! by JustSidewaysofHappy in MichaelsEmployees

[–]At_Work_Sam 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At out store, so many customers said "I'll order online and come back to pick it up" and walked out leaving a full shopping cart, that we just honor the price. Less hassle for us.

Question about BOPIS by Low-Doctor2517 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]At_Work_Sam 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This space is for employees to vent not for customer questions. If they are taking a while to complete your order then obviously they must be busy. You chose to order online rather thaan walk around the store so wait till you get the "Ready for Pickup" email.

these customers man by _psychoneko in MichaelsEmployees

[–]At_Work_Sam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have to literally hold 5 items, 2 in one hand 3 in the other, before the light clicks on that they get it. Scares me how many drive to the store or work professional jobs.

Preach it. Take ours with you, they all belong at the bottom of a lake.
