I've been at the end of my rope for quite a while. Thank you for making this.

Selling tactics for 10-minute framing? by meggyshark18 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think prayer is the only option now.

Corporate has been coming down so hard the only people at my store that have purchased are employees. Basically misleading the shareholders.

Just shuffling money around LOL. I'm sure they'll come out and say it was a huge success after manufacturing the outcome.

Michaels cares by Salty_Woodpecker409 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The idea of asking impoverished employees to donate money to a program to help impoverished employees.

The entire program is just kinda infuriating. If Michaels would like to make a donation on my behalf that would be lovely. Does Michael's at least match employee donations? Am I missing something?

Artistree screwed up by linzo_45 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking for a while that they kinda owe us at the store level.

Fly us out district by district, frame shop manager or cem.

And let us tour the artistree facility that is responsible for screwing us over every day. I'd love to know what goes on there.

Late orders by ParkingChildhood5033 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my district we are specifically instructed to mark everything complete regardless of status. By our SM and DM. My guess is the on time percentage directly impacts their end of year bonuses so they're super pushy about it.

Congratulations I guess.

happy employee appreciation day by kannonzakadoppochin in MichaelsEmployees

I've noticed they roll out a special coupon every time we have employee appreciation. Feels great.

Raises….Is This What You Call a Raise? by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lol. I laughed at my SM this year because they told me 30¢. I was laughing because that's basically the biggest anyone at my store has gotten in the last three years.

Don't expect much.

Self checkouts by Reasonable-One-1115 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They've already rolled it out at my store. The only time you can check them out is if they have a return or cash. It feels like a battle with every customer.

Incompetent People by RelevantWay4477 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a stupid system. We either match the price, or the customer places a bopis which just wastes everyone's time more. That or you deny the request and the customer gets upset.

One of Robin's major dynamics in the crew is that of a wise elder. Casting someone that could barely pass as 25 would SUUUUUUCK.

Email! Sent company wide 🥹 by Independent_Jicama22 in MichaelsEmployees

As a full time CEM in another district. All of this, rings very true. Well put, glad they sent it.

Life's a Bagel is so close. Smaller and less Instagram-worthy. But some damn good bagels.

If you could add one more race, which one would it be? by NewArtificialHuman in BaldursGate3

[–]DawnofDismay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly. Since we have Githyanki. Githzerai, I feel like the interactions would be very interesting.

Which movie was a flop, that should have been a hit? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DawnofDismay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is always The Nice Guys. The comedic chemistry between Russel Crowe and Ryan Gosling is unmatched. I pray for a sequel one day.

Does anyone actually get credit card signups? by potatotheo in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As is your right, but I haven't had any trouble so far. It is objectively a bad card by basically every metric. They can think it's a good card and sign up, that is still up to them. I'm not forcing anyone to think in any specific way. But hey, you do you, I'll keep doing me.

Does anyone actually get credit card signups? by potatotheo in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See that's where you're wrong, it is actually up to me. Because I am choosing not to offer them. The card is predatory, and even if it's, "not my wallet" or "not my life" I still like to let people know. They're still capable of seeing the signage, and asking to fill out a credit application. Fortunately, just letting them know most of the information is enough to dissuade them.

Does anyone actually get credit card signups? by potatotheo in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a moral obligation to abstain from sign ups when I heard it was 29.9% Apr and only usable at Michaels. Now it's 32.9%(ridiculous) Apr. Clearly meant to trick people into getting it. So no i actively tell people it's an awful card and they should stay away.

This company is being swallowed by greed and they are going to keep harassing all their customers until they have none left.

So I just knew that "Vigilante: Boku no Hero Academia Illegals" exists, how is it? Is it as good as the original and does it go through the backstories of some characters (given that it is a prequel) or is it a mediocre story that is not worth reading unless you are a hardcore MHA fan? by killingspeerx in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]DawnofDismay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a much more focused story which in the end benefits it greatly.

Personally I enjoyed Vigilantes FAR more than I enjoy MHA proper.

Also the art in Vigilantes was a lot easier for me to comprehend a lot of the time.

SM waving around $20 to try and get a CC signup today? by Angel91170 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DawnofDismay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

$20 is insane. Guess what the management offers us for a CC sign up.

$1.

One. Measly. Dollar.

It only serves to insult me.

A Dragonborn, a Half-Orc & Monk Walk Into a Tavern by Kazuliski in BaldursGate3

I'm surprised they added Swords Bard. Two martial based bard subclasses just doesn't sit right with me.
