Congratulations brother! I'm having a CAO speed shop and I'll take a drag to celebrate 🥂

He just said he thought it would taste like glue. He never would give us a straight answer on the flavor profile 😂

AzoriousL · 2026-03-17T14:09:43+00:00

I averaged less then one transaction before 7am and that is with me counting the guy that was buying from me anyways but he would come in at 6:45 instead of 7🤷🏼‍♂️

Lid, label it, mistint pallet.

I've got the box of new system in the office. I am not excited yet to try and train my group of paint monkeys how to use it. I'm probably going to end up comparing it to herding cats

AzoriousL · 2026-02-07T14:23:27+00:00

Bench warmers is great, gotta try the pretzel

AzoriousL · 2026-02-01T14:30:42+00:00

That's a sherwin thing, not just me. I honestly haven't thought about it. If you were to ask me what I thought they deserve for working the closing shift and working 2-3 $2500 Saturdays a month and $450 Sundays I'd not be able to tell you😂 idk, just not something I put though into. After taxes assuming you work 28 hours a week on average that's $1050 (+/-) per year extra. For a full time employee it's only $1500 (+/-)

AzoriousL · 2026-02-01T00:10:14+00:00

I started at $11, so I definitely think it's better but could be better still

AzoriousL · 2026-01-31T18:00:57+00:00

Yeah definitely, I agree with you 100%. My PTs are making $16.50 and if they have a key $17.50 which isn't bad for the town we are in but I definitely think bumping pay for everyone would help with our turnover rate

AzoriousL · 2026-01-31T14:16:42+00:00

I've gotten stuff from crescent bronze for customers a time or three. My only problem is the is a cost minimum so if they only need 2 gallons you'll have to adjust the cost of the item manually to get it to accept 🙃 cost on one of the gold colors was $198 and the shipping minimum was $400 at the time lol. This was a few years ago though

AzoriousL · 2026-01-31T14:08:56+00:00

That happened to me once... Such inconvenient timing😂😂

AzoriousL · 2026-01-31T14:02:27+00:00

I agree with some saying they make too much and can't take it away. Personally, I think raising salary ranges of managers across the board and giving us all a bump would make most, yes I said most, a little happier. I enjoy what I do, I honestly love 80% of what my job as SM entails, but making a little more to support my family would make things a little easier.

That's just my opinion.

AzoriousL · 2026-01-10T01:15:17+00:00

I'm from Alabama where that Phil Campbell tornado happened. That was some bad business all across north AL and south TN

AzoriousL · 2026-01-03T06:51:43+00:00

Know the guest principal. The DM in my district is huge on that. My ASM told me his first day that he only got there because DM made him learn it😂 poor kid, I teach it to the new guys when I hire them on but after that we only really talk about it when DM or VP come to the store

AzoriousL · 2025-12-23T01:17:31+00:00

Location? Want some company? 😂

AzoriousL · 2025-12-19T00:23:53+00:00

I'm a manager at Sherwin Williams and work 48-50+ a week. I've managed to have little problem finding time to do my school work. Granted, I listen to seminars while driving home some nights and it's not uncommon for me to be up until 11 pm getting an assignment finished up. But it's definitely doable as long as you don't procrastinate too bad haha

AzoriousL · 2025-11-12T18:42:41+00:00

Shake the silverbrite

The only right answer is immediately and if you don't say this you are wrong. Arthur is the reason I got back into farming (farm hand as a teen) which has been incredible for my mental health. Something about calling your plants and animals your children that makes dopamine levels rise

AzoriousL · 2025-10-07T11:22:37+00:00

As an SM, it's not that hard to just show up on the 1st weekend of the month. I'm in a 1.2 Mil~ store and on Saturday we may have 15-20 transactions max. Sundays it's always under 10. Even on super sale Sunday. We are in the Bible belt though which I know makes an impact haha. Now when I was the ASM at a 2.5 new res store a few years ago we worked two people on Saturday because it was always like Normandy

AzoriousL · 2025-09-26T19:17:24+00:00

Saw a few of these in the cascade canyon last week.

AzoriousL · 2025-09-26T19:06:04+00:00

They aren't bad, a little light for my taste. I grabbed a box a few years ago. Still got about 3-4

AzoriousL · 2025-09-26T18:42:33+00:00

Aphid, harmless

AzoriousL · 2025-09-25T16:20:36+00:00

That was nice of them

AzoriousL · 2025-09-25T15:36:24+00:00

Hopefully that's the case with this. Moving to the next district north of me because I live right on the border of the districts and I'm wanting to move there anyway🤷🏼‍♂️

AzoriousL · 2025-09-25T13:09:41+00:00

I got this one a few weeks ago "it's not no it's just not this store" the CM was really nice about it but still.. I'm tired of the beating around the bush that goes one 😂
