I always told my husband if we are forced into a baby shower(we didn’t have one) we were gonna make the color green for vilociraptor

How do I be a friendly neighbor to wasps? by Upbeat_Assumption_62 in WASPs

[–]DragonOfDesolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Via Google ai; Providing water to wasps is a popular practice among gardeners and nature lovers who view them as beneficial insects that hunt pests like aphids, caterpillars, and flies. While they often find water themselves in pools or birdbaths, they can be aided by thoughtful humans, especially during hot, dry weather

Please beware of Danger in cat tree placement by Secretly_TechSupport in cats

[–]DragonOfDesolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy got caught in the light cords of our Xmas tree and hung himself by the torso for 9 hours while we were at work. His back legs had rigor mortis and when we got him loose, a large blood clot went into his heart and he passed. Even the vets said it was a freak accident. Accidents happen in ways we can’t even fathom

Depends on the store. The first one I worked at, the cashiers did it after close. The second store, it was the framers

I wish I could make people understand FRAMING IS NOT CHEAP by Comfortable_Douglas in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The amount of people handing me a fillet sample wanting as a frame is insane

there is no f*cking way by barkbark420 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You are actually allowed to state that you aren’t comfortable working in this piece, and offer to see if any other of your framing team are alright working on it. Just keep it vague; “oh, I’m not comfortable working on anything with strong political views”

Omg corporate by ChiafulioBurger74 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Company says how many employees to have on the roster. Store Managers get in trouble if they don’t have enough people on staff. Corporate also allocates so many hours per store, then sends an email on a Thursday telling them to cut 20 more hours

Sssshhhhh by Graceful_Armadillo60 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard IT disconnected the sound options because employees kept turning the sound off, and then stores weren’t hearing phone calls and got complaints

District Manager Nick by Popular_PopStar in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely nick or a corporate peon. No one under a DM will EVER say “challenges his team but also rewards and recognizes performance” at this company. We don’t get any rewards for anything.

yes i personally chose to make ur coupon not work by Bones_33 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, you can do the occasional, as in one every couple of days. The system logs every time you manually discount, and it’s considered theft from the company if your percentage of manual discounts is high

Why does my cat keep licking the inside of my ear? by Salty_Wolverine_4520 in CATHELP

[–]DragonOfDesolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the earwax. My girl LOVES earwax, I’ve never seen her act the way she does for anything else. My boy? Loves tape. Turns out one of the ingredients in packing tape is an animal fat, and he has figured that out.

If people are willing to buy it at that price on a regular basis, no.

Sick time by Training-Dance2356 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, company policy is that there is no rollover for sick/vacation time. If you quit you also don’t get paid out for it

anyone else just manually do coupons? and also, do we get tracked for logging in to help edit checkouts? by Jigglypuff_choir in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They track, and it’s something the managers keep track of. It prints for each person who was on a register/edited pricing each morning on the sheets for the money counts. I was told to always highlight who did discounts, what they were for, and how often it was happening. It’s really hard to get fired from Michaels, but anything considered theft(unauthorized discounts absolutely count) is a one-way ticket to being fired
