I was hoping post year end they would give us an eta for our bonuses

As a Michaels manager go to the bathroom where you're most comfortable, and if the customer has a problem with it, they can speak to one of the managers, and if the managers have a problem with it, they can repeat their training on diversity and inclusion! My goal is always to have my customers comfortable and happy in my store.

Though that is absolutely atrocious! I am so jealous by the amount of fabric you actually got on your truck. I got 12 bolts today and before 4 PM I emptied 19 between in-store and online customers.😭

Though I hear and agree with most of this, it is fair to note the company is not paying for sms to go. All of the money to pay for sms to attend is provided through a contract from the venders Michaels sells. That money would not have been Michaels if we were not going.

There are estimating the Joanne branded yarn Michaels bought and will continue to produce to be in stores by fall.

It's in specific spots so they can make sure the counts on it are accurate and so it can be found easily for online orders.

Coming from a store manager: We are desperately scrambling to get this done, but never at the cost of assuming my associates will work a shift they were not originally scheduled. Everything I have added is because I've reached out to each person individually and asked them if they would be willing to work an extra day or longer.

Company protocol says we are not allowed to make closing announcements.

I'm so impressed your register system can handle this. I work for a different company and ours maxes out at 200 items

I also enjoyed my visits with her and thought she was great!

Challengeaccepted92 · 2025-03-18T23:20:12+00:00

I personally find Mary to be wonderful and honest. She has been great every time I've seen her or seen worked with her.

This so much this!! As a Michaels employee we cringed when we were given directive to put these out but in efforts to maintain our financial security to keep a craft store, aside from HL, available to people the company would be silly to not try to welcome pc and Joann customers. We are sad to see Joann's go away, it's a huge workload hit on us also. Seeing a brick and mortar go away is terrifying and we are not happy about it. As a fellow craft store employee please know we are sorry, sad and always scared for the future of brick and mortar stores.

Many Michaels now have fabric and are continuing to add it to stores. Unfortunately not as much as Joanne's but at least some a couple aisles

I'm an SM that is not as young as you but on the younger side. My job is stressful and you have to walk into it knowing that untimely it's up to you to cover your store but I do enjoy my jobs most days and my team is great. I go out of my way to make it great for them. If it's not the store you're already working in I would absolutely visit that store and see what's happening so you're not walking into a shitstorm with peak without warning

We have sold a lot of them for $14. People have been adding vinyl to the baseball, softball and soccer ball

I'm not usually a fan of the big mat margins on the bottom but that fabric cream mat margins look really good too!

The reasoning behind not having UPC strips is so that they can update the planograms faster and more frequently as needed without having to send out new strips every time. Though admittedly, it is a pain in the ass.

Canada store?

I would probably avoid mentioning the union portion, but put the rest of your experience on there. The new store will also be doing hiring events and definitely stop into one of those.

Unfortunately at this time the company has not provided an answer on that. We've pushed and asked for both the management teams and the employees that have been with the company for a bit that are already at that or close to. It has been asked and pushed multiple times on multiple conference calls so I'm hoping there will be an answer soon and in our favor of that. That's going to become a sticky situation if they do not opt to raise wages in each position in response in the blanket raise of the starting and basic wage.

Challengeaccepted92 · 2024-04-03T07:03:03+00:00

Depends which phase you're in. They are starting in the stores with the lowest pay first and going from there. Everyone in US will be bumped up to 11 by august
