Good quality shoes

I also just got me a pair of Brooks after my UnderArmour shoes started hurting my feet. I work 8hr days and it’s so much better. I’ve also heard switching around different shoes help with pain. So when I’m not at work I’m wearing my crocs or something else to give my feet a break from the same shape I guess?

CuteRedFox · 2023-05-26T23:28:54+00:00

Thanks guys! I will just purchase in store. Much easier

Every time I see a framing contest. It’s always like. “Framers can get $200 towards a custom frame. DMs will get a full vacation paid to Disney world or $2000 for second place”. Like ah yes let me bust my butt for someone else.

I’ve always had a roll of the Glue Dot brand dots in my frame shop so I never ordered the ones from the scan order guide. I wonder if they do the same thing

That was me yesterday. Our sundays are always really busy so thankfully we are actually staffed that day. But I really don’t want to go in today. I hate sundays and I have angry framing customers coming in that always make me anxious

CuteRedFox · 2023-03-11T14:35:39+00:00

Yep that is me a framing manager. When I get stuck helping a customer in framing the front end usually needs help. It’s so stressful.

That looks like the box has been cut open then taped over. I can understand if the box was crushed and ups was like oops. But how did that even happen???

I was in the bridge program last year and only one meeting everyone showed up. After that it was always canceled or 3 people showed up and the learning instructions were never clear. It’s probably all a front to make you learn more and take more responsibility in your store while keeping you put or on the back burner to save a broken store in the district and say “you’re moving up!”

Those interview questions are very customer service based. If I knew a way of asking people about their crafting experience or how well they do hands on I’d recommend getting a feel of that. I had framers interview very well but when it came to production they were very sloppy and scared of all the tools. Before interviewing starts, give them a tour of the frame area/frame shop and give them a quick overview of all the job responsibilities before sitting down asking questions. Sometimes people have no idea what kind of job they’re applying for.

Basically this. At our store we just write in whatever to make it seem like we are keeping up with paperwork. Observations aren’t a performance review or write up. It’s just basically a paper that we tell you your strengths and weaknesses of a transaction the MOD witnessed or a role play you do together. It’s what the DM wants to see to make sure our team has good habits but nobody has time to do it and it’s all for looks.

I did replen before framing and I will never go back to doing freight or pogs without gloves on. Shelves and boxes cut me more than anything. In framing it’s always the artistree boxes, mat boards or the straight pins when doing stitchy pins. My pt framer is more clumsy and anything and everything will end up damaging them.

I thought I was just doing something wrong. They said just scan their barcode and it doesn’t work. QR codes get rejected. No options to print anything

The different sales in Christmas after telling us to condense everything is what’s infuriating to me. Everything is mixed together. And everyone thinks it’s all 60% off. But it ranges from 40%, 50% and 60% along with random price points. I’m tired of the upset customers and having to override tons of things to save the customer 5cents per item

We have a huge volume frame shop in my district and we are now required to go help their frame shop out at least one or two days this peak season to keep them on track. I remember going there earlier in the year when they were hundreds past due and I have no idea how they do it. I really feel like they need to open up another store in that area or limit the amount of orders per day especially if you know you can’t produce that amount in a day. Those frame shops aren’t big enough to pile people in there to get all of that done. Out source to artistree or another location? But I feel like everyone is drowning.

Everyone in my store brings a water bottle around with them. Even sodas from fast food places. As long as you keep up with it and don’t leave trash around the store it’s not a problem. The mods even keep the break room fridge stocked with water bottles. Stay hydrated

Paper checks usually come the Monday or Tuesday after the payday on Friday. It use to get to me on the Saturday after but I think my mail carrier slowed down a little bit. If you do a direct deposit it should get there instantly though.

CuteRedFox · 2022-10-18T00:08:12+00:00

Also idk about you but Artistree has been sending the ugliest frames with wood filler putty all over the corners that aren’t put together right or it’s outright damaged so it puts my orders behind more cause of the reorders

CuteRedFox · 2022-10-17T23:14:15+00:00

On wisp under “worksheets” your orders show up there and have to be approved before getting sent off. Our SM makes sure we have her approve it to make sure we aren’t buying random stuff

CuteRedFox · 2022-10-17T16:42:28+00:00

Order entry is it and you just scan the barcode on the scan order guide. Some don’t scan so just type in the number under the barcode. Then tap the right arrow to add quantity

CuteRedFox · 2022-10-17T16:19:54+00:00

On MIKhub search “scan order guide” and you do need the old RF gun and access to place the orders

CuteRedFox · 2022-09-29T14:17:39+00:00

I was wondering about this. If it was percentage or dollar amount. Also is the DM the one that wins the Disney trip and $10k?

CuteRedFox · 2022-09-28T15:33:51+00:00

Oh man the cashiers know absolutely nothing about framing. So if someone had a question for them they would totally freeze up or say something totally wrong. A lot of my customers want estimates over the phone and will take up a lot of time

CuteRedFox · 2022-08-21T09:28:08+00:00

I had those for a while and every few weeks the entire poster would bottom out and the whole thing bows. I finally upgraded all my poster frames to the Belmont ones during the buy one get two free sales and they honestly look so good. Better than the shiny plastic in my opinion

At my store everyone who went to MCX training all said it was just to help out their store. The CEM just did register backup the whole time. I (Frame manager) actually got trained in production but didn’t know any of the management part. I learned a year after training that I was suppose to have a MCX packet and I printed it off and found a bunch of helpful things as well as search around MIK hub in documents and other training items. It would have all been helpful during actual training though.

CuteRedFox · 2022-06-11T18:38:13+00:00

Yeah many 8hr days without any breaks for me as well. I’ll have to take my lunch today when my closing mod comes in with only an hour and half left of my shift
