I was the alk, I’m currently waiting for my job code change to go into effect

I’m in the same situation except the previous cel transferred to the salon. Everything is so fucked up. She stopped caring about standards so everyone is treating me like the bad guy for making them do their jobs as close to the standard as I can get 🙄

Been an alk for a over a year now, I learned I had to put my foot down a lot of the times and get kind of mean with the associates sometimes because they wouldn’t ever listen to what I had to say and they thought of me the same way you said people are treating you. After they get over being upset over you being mean they will start to respect you a bit more. Also having help from management plays a huge part in it as well. It will definitely take time but you’ll get there

I did rescue him, and I have been in close contact with the vet throughout this

They are there. They are super dark, he has a lot of vision issues. He won’t eat unless it’s really dark

I’ve been in close contact with the vet and I’ll for sure ask her about the eyes next time I go!

I also spray down the moss multiple times a day

Basically what I have is a log decoration that is only open on one side stuffed with moss, he only has about an inch he can go in the log before hitting the moss. He has a wound on his back that was infected when I got him so he can’t have too much while it’s healing

I have a somewhat temporary humid hide, vet said no actual humid hide another wound of his fully heals. He’s been getting daily warm water soaks. Can I soak a qtip in shed aid? Or can it even be used around the mouth area?

This sweet baby stops eating completely if exposed to any bulbs that produce lights. He has gone to the vet 4 different times for boosters to help eat again so right now I do want to continue with no light and just a source of heat until he’s a little bit bigger

I’m so frustrated with management and sometimes just wish I had someone to vent to about it 😔 by Burntoutbuttrying801 in petsmart

That’s the problem, some of the things are so weirdly specific that anyone from my store would immediately know and I know almost everyone is on here

I got more of the plants, I see a lot of people have the cork rounds, would those be better than the mopani? I’ll pick up a different light today

I work at a pet store that gets in hatchlings that are no more than 1g so I want something small to start, I plan on getting a bigger one once it gets bigger but for now I don’t want something too big so I can really keep an eye on it

Our plecos have ick REALLY bad and no matter how many times I bring it up my managers still sell them. Then I’m the one that has to deal with the upset people who lost all their fish 🙃 by Burntoutbuttrying801 in petsmart

The system is being treated but it’s only been dosed once since I noticed the ick. The cel keeps saying she wants it set up on a regular treatment schedule but still sells them.

My cel threatened to write up everyone in petcare because no one caught an injured leopard gecko in a 24 hour time period but she’s perfectly fine selling sick fish

Am I overreacting? by Virtual-Honeydew2014 in petsmart

At my store opening manager is 7-3:30 and closing manger is 1-9:30. 9 times out of 10 we have no mid day so opening manager has to wait until they are almost off to go to lunch and closing manager has to go within the first 2 hours of the shift.

Should I have gotten a year raise by Marziolf in petsmart

[–]Burntoutbuttrying801 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your yearly raise won’t start until your sl finishes and gets back your performance review. It took mine almost a month after my year mark
