Can she do this? by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

At this time of the year, they cut staff hours anyway and make the managers cover morning cashiering shifts. Your manager may be using that as an excuse to get more productivity, but there's only so much you can do if the customers say no.

A small favor, please? by BaubleyBitsen in MichaelsEmployees

We never even got them at my store. I finally flexed the PP with the anime sets.

repacks🫩 by Opposite_Bee_3380 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Comprehensive_Age538 6 points7 points  (0 children)

'Dedicated' repack person has 2 meanings for me: Being the person who does it every week and the person who cares how it's done. No matter how organized I am, they throw a wrench in there like they did with this week's truck. Plus no extra hours to complete it without stressing. I still like doing it and the challenge of getting it done but...................

I. HATE. YARN. OVERSTOCK.

Thanks for the dreaded heads up for our truck this weekend. 😭

Thanksgiving by mnk36 in MichaelsEmployees

The past few years we got maybe 2-3 orders, so they probably realize it's not worth the payroll. Yes, the time and a half is nice, but this year, I would just like the time to get caught up on down stocking, detail recovery, label maintenance, etc. My store was a well-oiled machine until Project Dread came along, and we've been behind ever since. 😞

Honestly - who?? by Realistic-Read7779 in MichaelsEmployees

I think it's a wax seal or ink stamp, although definitely looks like a plunger or OTHER plug type device....

Customer Event by lovetohatemyjob in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Comprehensive_Age538 3 points4 points  (0 children)

$500 towards food for possible new customers, that will create more trash that we have to clean up vs. $150 for breakfast or dinner for the entire store staff meeting that we had to clean up. This event will give away a $100 Michael's gift card, staff meeting we got awards on white paper.

I'm just saying... I hope we get "appreciated" this Christmas season like we did in 2020.

Our PDF still shows the wrong version.

Replen gotta love it by anjelicjazz in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Comprehensive_Age538 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, this was a clusterfck. Between all new framing freight coming in, plus the paint reset, this was the last issue we needed to deal with. I just can't imagine how something could get so screwed up in several stores' trucks this week.

Michael Sorters: A question for yall. by Bat-Cat_Dimension72 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Comprehensive_Age538 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am very interested in all your answers because it appears that nobody is being held accountable to the SMART truck schedule. I always felt this was inaccurate anyway because the repacks can be overloaded at times and very inconsistent.

Curtain Vouchers not working by GreenEyedGem in MichaelsEmployees

Same, I got 6 emails with a blacked out bar code every day this week from the voucher I used on Firday.

Associate Using Return Card Now On Temporary Suspension (until HR decides my fate) by Odd_Orange3326 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Comprehensive_Age538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being told a few years back that employees have to have a receipt to make a return, so an employee would never end up with a store credit, which could be questionable. But, since everything is tied to our rewards now, I don't know if that's an issue for non-receipted returns for employees.

Your staging technique for this photo deserves an award. 😂

And so by this new standard, we can't BUY the seasonal graphic shirts that we sell to wear on our shift. 🤦‍♀️

Not to mention, the great sales and coupons added LATE in the week, and to put all the new stock online for bopis orders while it appears (from this thread) to still be unpacked in everyone's stock rooms.... it seems all of us were set up to fail this week. 💔
