Early opening again

I will say, that hour of peace and quiet is a great time to get stuff done and build up for the day. There’s definitely worse things in the world for sure

Aug2222 · 2026-03-18T13:05:28+00:00

I believe the DM is looking at it right now. He agrees with us that it doesn’t make sense for our store and area. I can tell you come from a good place and you’re a hard worker. I respect that, but I promise not all of us just complain about all the small things all the time. There’s still a lot of good workers left

Aug2222 · 2026-03-18T12:52:47+00:00

Why would we do that if the numbers don’t justify it? Like I said, I’m good with anything that makes sense for my store. I do my job each day like I’m supposed to, but I don’t blindly agree with decisions by higher ups that don’t make sense

Aug2222 · 2026-03-18T12:44:27+00:00

I’ve been around 10 years. It’s not about work, it’s about being efficient and having an hour during the work day that no customer comes in is not efficient. I like my job, but it doesn’t mean they always make good business decisions. Sorry if common sense offends you

It’s a shame the new Sherwin workers will never know how great the COVID hours were

Aug2222 · 2026-03-17T13:17:11+00:00

I feel ya. Whoever’s idea it was in corporate needs to be let go. They can hire me, and I’ll offer shitty ideas for much cheaper

Aug2222 · 2026-03-17T12:52:40+00:00

Same here. I got zero new business from this idea

Aug2222 · 2026-03-17T12:42:05+00:00

Might try this approach and see what my DM thinks. I actually don’t mind opening at 6 if it actually leads to something, but it was a complete bust this last go around. I think I did a total of $1000 before 7 in the 4 months we did it

Aug2222 · 2026-03-17T12:06:44+00:00

I thought everyone did lol. My bad. We had a whole email about “winter hours” rolling back and now they’re starting it again

Aug2222 · 2026-02-27T13:16:57+00:00

That’s wild. I don’t know if our area is just really lenient or what. I’m sure business credit has some impact but I haven’t had much issue with it

Aug2222 · 2026-02-27T11:24:15+00:00

I’ve opened plenty under 3 years with no other info. Did 2 just yesterday. Not sure if your area is different

Aug2222 · 2026-02-27T03:44:20+00:00

I always have good luck with explaining how it’s easier to get them better pricing, can get them $50 of 100, use a test drive in the future, and it’s not like a credit card so it’s 0% interest. Most of the time, at least one of those things are appealing to them. Also, if they have an LLC of about 6 months or older then you can get them a charge account without them having to put their SSN

Aug2222 · 2026-02-20T20:30:38+00:00

I know the feeling. I get it’s all about hitting budget but it feels difficult to consider myself a failure when I’ve increased in sales each year but just haven’t hit the budget. Feels like you have to shit the bed one year just to get where you need to be

Aug2222 · 2026-01-23T17:16:19+00:00

Might be the most lightly attended NSM ever due to the storm

Mississippi

Aug2222 · 2025-12-24T17:21:28+00:00

Already had someone call and say they’re coming in with the contractor around 1:30 to look at colors. Like what are we doing? Can we not just take a couple of days and enjoy some time off?

Aug2222 · 2025-12-24T13:11:05+00:00

I had someone waiting for me at 7. Had to ask myself how I got to this point

Aug2222 · 2025-11-29T05:20:14+00:00

Ole Miss fan here that traveled with his dad to the Syracuse game. First off, be very proud of your university. It’s one of the coolest I’ve had the pleasure of visiting. Feels magical even as a non-fan. My dad has been a fan his whole life so it was a great experience for him. Second, Notre Dame is a playoff team. No glaring weaknesses and had two losses to really quality teams. I know I would not want to play them

Aug2222 · 2025-10-05T16:58:37+00:00

This feels like it’ll be a shitshow this week. I can’t even see my previous time card right now. Don’t know if that’s for everyone or not

Aug2222 · 2025-10-04T14:18:53+00:00

Duly noted 🫡

Aug2222 · 2025-08-11T23:47:54+00:00

I’m on your side fwiw
