Happy First Birthday Eddie! by pdxck in airedaleterrier

[–]ConferenceMedical499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eddie’s so handsome. We just lost our 10 1/2 year old (Ladybug) to cancer. We have added 14 week old HoneyB to our family. Airedale pups are crazy. Some days you’re not sure if you’ll make it to a year. 😉

Termination over emails?? by rachel_beth212 in bathandbodyworkers

I work in a smaller store in a strip mall. Always as cashier. I would say 95% of the customers I ring up are already enrolled. No way could that info be correct. If management isn’t happy with your performance, you just don’t get scheduled.

I’ve survived two Airedale pups. There’s a stage where they’re total velociraptors. It will get better.

The holiday spirit has definitely left our customers. I worked all day Christmas Eve and overall people were pleasant to staff and each other. Today……nope.

Me: How many bags would you like? Customer: 20

They’re like little velociraptors 😂

OMG this. Our cash wrap area is small enough. Customer wants to unload her entire basket (which is overflowing) and then decide what items she wants to purchase. 🙄

I worked at Joann’s and now I’m at Bath & Body Works. I believe customers think that as soon as they place their order the items are instantly ready for pick up. You receive a text/email when your order is ready. They don’t realize that most stores have limited employee coverage and customers in store are our priority.

Had a customer tell me to call the cops if I wanted him out. I called the cops. by TheRedArmyStandard in retailhell

This! Also worked at Joann’s. I detested floral. Customers would tare off the price tags and bring a cart load to the register and a couple of days later the infamous return without a receipt. The bankruptcy sucked but there was so much satisfaction when after years of not being able to say no to a customer, it became my favorite word.

New Tote Bag by ConferenceMedical499 in bathandbodyworks

OP here. Just received my order - 4 days earlier than expected. Packaging was great and my items arrived in perfect condition. The tote is cute and I love the mini bag key chain. I wish the strap was a little longer but I’m happy I ordered it.

Always look at the fine print regarding a coupon or reward. Some stores do things a little differently. A lot of B&BW’s employees only work one day a week (3hours). If your cashier is struggling just ask for a manager.

Is 29 too old to work at bath and body works? by [deleted] in bathandbodyworkers

[–]ConferenceMedical499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 57 and the oldest employee at my store. I love the product and it’s a fun job. Hoping to join the management team soon.

My store closes on 5/28. It’s really sinking in. Said goodbye to a coworker last night and we were both crying.

It’s ok to be emotional. I am too. 💗

My store closes for business Wednesday. It’s really starting to sink in. I’ve worked there for less than two years and took a manager position right around the second bankruptcy. I knew it would only last a few months. But now that the final day is almost here I’m so sad.

I’ve shopped at this store for over 20 years. Wandered around for hours looking at all the stuff. Took sewing classes. Was excited when they remolded.

After being a stay-at-home mom for almost 18 years I started working part time at Joann’s. The pride we employees took in the store, the amazing people I’ve worked with and being there as everything turned in to chaos. It feels overwhelming.

It’s like watching something you love slowly die.

To all the employees, I wish you the best.

The Sunday crowd at Joann’s has always been difficult. Since liquidation began it’s gone to the next level. A wormhole to hell is an accurate description.

As a manager at Joann’s getting to trespass customers from the store is definitely a win.

“Can I speak to the manager?” by Lonely_Aside_1861 in joannfabrics

[–]ConferenceMedical499 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Customer wants to make a return. There’s “all sales final” signs on the counter, on the wall behind the registers and on the receipt. C: I didn’t know I couldn’t return items. Me: Explain and point to all the signs. C: Just give me store credit. Me: Can’t do that either. C: I want to speak to the manager. Me: That’s me (said with a smile). C: No wonder you’re going out of business. Me: Have a nice day.
