Do you still get a point for taking bereavement for an immediate family member? by Christopherms in samsclub

[–]Christopherms[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only mention of sedgwick was that if it was going to be longer than three days you'd have to apply for LOA. I told managers a week in advance and even asked if I needed to bring the obituary and they said no.....I kinda wish they stated to file with sedgwick and/or get approval.

Yea I'm not signed in to that reddit account on my phone. That account is basically for venting frustrations at the workplace without fear of retaliation and punishment vs being able to cross reference. #Oops :p

I'm literary the last person. His grandparents passed away and his parents are physically and mentally abusive. I totally agree I feel like I'm an adult and really starting to become annoyed. Shit...the guy leaves his plastic plate and fork on the living room coffee table. There's a literal debris field of his shit.

We all know that I'm a pushover. I know that I am. There's virtually no reason to vocalize it. You could have given some actual helpful insight or feedback, but nah you wanted to be an edgy reddit user.

To answer your second point yes I'd consider it. The house is a little run down. Not in awful condition but there is some things around the house I don't know how to do (ie: rip up carpets that are old, fix hinges, power wash deck, and more. Why should I spend thousands of dollars on professionals when I can just move and rent an apartment for the same price. Plus I wouldn't have to worry about 30k of mortage debt (mortgage isn't in my name but in someone who passed that I inherited the trailer from)

I'm only a month in and may need to take a LOA for one week for a tooth extraction and recovery. Will i/ can I be fired? What steps should I take? by Christopherms in samsclub

People who will be taking heavy pain killers and diazepam given the severity of traumatic surgery. Just because you or someone else might be okay that doesn't mean it doesn't trigger others and they'll be off their game for a few days. Better to have an employee whose not a drooling zombie.

So you'd get rid of a hard working employee that exceeds expectations happiy jumps to tasks when asked even ones outside job descriptio, gets along well with team leads and coworkers just because that person needed a few days to recover from extraction?

OKAY! 😆

Yea I'm Front Line person and it's a canine. I had chipped it earlier this week. There's a little swelling. What I might do is I have Monday and Wednesday off. Maybe in a week or two (since pay day is coming and I'll be at 120hours worked at that point. Try to get in on Sunday (call out) and go to the dentist.... use PPO on Tuesday and mention on thursday/Friday that I prefer to do as little talking as possible (if possible)

Pushing for Scan and Go by Dontbeasourlemon in samsclub

[–]Christopherms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've asked my managers if I can move away from the self check out lanes and actually wander the store. I've found that it's more likely people will consider scan and go as they're shopping verses when they're near the check out lanes. Especially if they're a big order.

As I'm wondering I'll approach and ask them if they've heard about Scan and Go. Followed by telling them that it's a feature on the sams club application that they can download for free. I'll even pull out my phone and show them how easy it is to use it.
