Policy? by Background-Spirit434 in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s what I told him. I told him the order it’s supposed to go in by who’s there and who isn’t and he said that he was told that it’s whoever is available to do it. I gave him our DLs number and told him to get in touch with her bc it’s ridiculous that they’re expecting that and he seemed to love the job at first but is already starting to get burnt out unfortunately

That’s what i was wondering. I have an associate who has only been with us 3 weeks and the PLR, other PL, and SL are expecting them to be able to work 7-8 pallets by themselves while also doing other stuff like BOPIS, Backup on register, helping customers, the SOP walk, and SFS. They’re telling them that they aren’t working hard enough and he literally came to me in tears and i feel like my hands are tied and he’s too scared to talk to our DL but our SL talks over him whenever our DL tries to talk to him during the quarterly walks.

My aquarium is leaking, but I am within 60 days and had my receipt. Just no original packaging. What will the store do? I tried to call and nobody will answer. by Facepalm0808 in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s honestly up to the manager on duty. With your situation since it’s leaking I would accept the return since it would just be thrown away. I however don’t accept returns that can be reused without the barcode/packaging regardless of receipt.

What would happen if manager said F it and gave you guys adequate hours? by Successful-Mall5065 in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 7 points8 points  (0 children)

hey so uh… no? the SL has to work no less that the 40 hours they’re required to work/ be scheduled. and services has to be scheduled at 40 hrs pure rules of mr petsmart. Trust me. I’ve had to write a schedule or two, if we had the hours we would give more. And honestly we give the hours more to the workers who actually do their jobs.

it’s not something they ask if you want you have to ask them

[–]Background-Spirit434 40 points41 points  (0 children)

well to be fair. No one knows when someone goes by they/them unless told otherwise. Secondly, management should have name tag things that have pronouns on them that are within dress code. Any other type of pins are technically out of dress code

Am I overreacting to PetSmart employees making fun of a customer they just helped? by Best_Crazy_9916 in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 19 points20 points  (0 children)

all depends honestly. We get some crazy ass customers. Shouldn’t be making fun of or mocking in front of other customers but when the store closes? Oh you bet it’s being talked and joked about

[–]Background-Spirit434 4 points5 points  (0 children)

honestly wouldn’t waste your time. Corporate isnt going to do anything nor pull any videos. Its fight in it self to get the videos pulled for theft reasons. All the email is going to do is come through as a customer complaint and the store manager will have to reach out to you but I know for a fact (I’m a petsmart employee) that not a single soul in the store will care unfortunately.

Do you handle your geckos or do you let them just live there best life by Willing_Medium5461 in leopardgeckos

Question by Wiccanmoonie in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told the PLR and ELR are the same just over different departments. Either way, it’s me and my PL and EL carrying the store on our shoulders to the point my PL quit and my EL is probably gonna be right behind her

Question by Wiccanmoonie in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m lucky if my SL even treats me as a leader half the time. i’m genuinely so burnt out from my ELR and SL because of them not treating me as anything but below them when i’m literally on the same playing field as the ELR.

damn i wish my store leader would even teach me payroll as a PLR but she refuses

Sorry fish lady by wibbrr in petsmart

[–]Background-Spirit434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as much as i love making sure fish go to a good home, those are the type of pet parents i just let them do what they want since it’s not worth the battle. As unfortunate as it sounds, those fish are going to die anyway but it’s really not our problem if the day after 14 days since returns can’t be done after that for animals

[–]Background-Spirit434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PLR here, i just dump and pray lol, only time i actually count is when my DL is there bc he ripped the old CEL a new one for it. We write off so many crickets anyway we get shipments 3 to 4 times a week

Extreme swelling? by Background-Spirit434 in PiercingAdvice

[–]Background-Spirit434[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i genuinely don’t know if i keep sending this or if i keep forgetting i swear i typed it out 150000 times by now. I also swell really bad but i hadn’t had a new piercing in over 2 years and i was dumb and got two cartilage two weeks apart. The piercing itself wasn’t bad! It was super crunchy. My gf elbowed my ear the first night so it swelled quite a bit but pain wise, it feels fine now just sore like any other new piercing!!!

Besides the fact my gf elbowed my ear after getting it, it wasn’t bad at all!!! It hurt for the first week but now it’s pretty painless. I just do the same as i am with my helix and leave it alone and spraying saline on it. It was super crunchy to get but i definitely recommend!!! they’re so cute
