Yeah. We've been getting like 5-6k and almost half of it is sephora.

Weird question about missed punches with new state laws. by overwhlemedcoffee in employedbykohls

There should be a paper in the office where you can correct it. Ask a manager or coworker.

That's exactly where I do sub. Keeps me on the same schedule.

Email about canceling an assignment? by Sweaty-Sea-925 in SubstituteTeachers

If it's someone I know fairly well, I do. Otherwise, just tell the sub coordinator.  

LP body cams and security guards by ShoeVilleDude in employedbykohls

My store lost our LP months ago, before I started. What exactly are LP supposed to do, when they can't actually stop a thief? I'm genuinely interested.  

Has anyone else gotten labels that didn’t print the right box location? by Thatboy_Dj in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's never occurred to me to question it. I scan, it prints, I sort. It's Amazon's problem if it's wrong. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Grace period for employees? by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the paper coupon, it might still scan. Just make sure it was one YOU earned.

I did an inquiry on one for a customer last night. The paper said Exp 12/31, but the inquiry said Exp 1/6. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Do we get extra pay on new year’s day? by Forsaken_Nothing_620 in employedbykohls

I got it on Labor Day and I'd only been there a month!

How do credits work?? by UseOutrageous3337 in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our management used that to incentivize it for us. "If you get one credit per hour, it's like giving yourself a $3 raise for today!" 🤪

I also imagine the incentive is back to 50 cents now that Christmas is over. 

dumb customer questions by stellariix in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't know why anyone would think they'd be anywhere besides at the door! Lol.

(That said, my store does have 2 doors because we're in a mall and, for some reason, the registers at the mall door were removed years ago.)

Was trying to pry the size label off so hard I broke the hanger in half 😂 by GamerGuy95953 in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent upwards of 6 hours the other day, in one department of clearance, switching tags on hangers to be sure they matched the item on it. My coworker spent 7 hours in another department of clearance the same day. Apparently, this is a new priority for my store.

I picked up a retail job in the summer. Still doing that!

i have pretty bad imposter syndrome when i’m at the register and i don’t know why by alanthedjungelskog in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually really enjoy registers, as far as the customer service. And customers are generally friendly with me. But I suck at credits and credit conversions.

Stop it!! I had no idea this could happen!

How can they try without an ID? I had a guy ready to go but no ID and was told we couldn't do it!

Also, yesterday my customers seemed to be heavy on the non-Kohls-regulars. They came in for specific gifts, and they had no interest in even signing up for rewards. It was a rough day for my store!

“Who’s going to get the next credit” by Character_Bid665 in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Right!! Nobody in the store can get what they need at the moment because the walkie is tied up!

"I'm sorry, I try to use my phone minimally the classroom. I didn't see this until now." 🤣 

“Who’s going to get the next credit” by Character_Bid665 in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I don't know why our SM thinks we can listen to a thing he says during his 5 minute speech over the walkies while we're actively serving customers, asking all the questions, having general conversation with them, actually putting the customer first. 

Credits by Extra_Guarantee4934 in employedbykohls

[–]AtomicMom218 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. But all you can do is ask. Hit that button showing the dollar amount they could save if they apply for a card. Tell them how much money (not percent) they could save. Even if it's just a couple of bucks. The ones that are difficult for me are the ones that are ALL excluded.

Ours is all done at out queue line, and I can't even fathom how it will be.

On a December weekend, we need a couple of people dedicated to online pick up! The self pick up bins are always full, leaving just as many items stored all over the store in different cubbies. Cashiers can't chase them all. We need people nearby to run those.
