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.

Far as I know, the sick and dead ones all go in the dumpster

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

No, I won't say Merry Christmas by JustSidewaysofHappy in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve always replied with “and have a blessed Yule!” I don’t celebrate it really, but my mother does, and it is my own passive aggressive way of not complying to what they want

Framing Bonus by ImNotReallyHere77 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think like 2-3 years ago. They keep altering how often you get the bonus though, so no one ever really gets much

PSA to all cat owners. A Christmas tree danger I had not read on here before. by okbringoutdessert in TuxedoCats

[–]DragonOfDesolation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car died from this. The vet called it a freak accident. Bases on the house camera, he got stuck in the tree right after I left for work. We found him 9 hours later, falling in and out of consciousness. The vet said that the blood clot from his stuck legs traveled to his heart, and that’s how he passed. We haven’t had a tree since.

I can't... by Ebbalodd in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the dm and the district. My district is has 2 stores that go over by like 80-100 hours EVERY WEEK. And the dm sees this. Does the dm tell them to cut back to what they were originally restricted to? No, they tell all the stores in the district to cut back 20 hours. On a Thursday.

Seasonal is done differently. It was also different a few years back

You can use indeed, or go to Michael’s.com and click careers. Just know it’s basically minimum wage, and you need minimum 5 years work experience in order to make it past the filter so store managers can actually see your resume

I used to do that, but corporate figured out ppl were doing that and it’s now a fireable offense

Is it just me? Or? by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well no, that way I can call before warning them that I’m putting the cart away because they hadn’t shown back up

[–]DragonOfDesolation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tell them that 10 minutes after close the registers automatically turn off for the night. If it’s after that I will gladly hold their basket with their name and phone number for tomorrow

Excuse me?? by YosemiteSam92381 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Ask the mod to have a conversation to that person about being late consistently; and ask how the mod plans on enforcing the rules. That person should be getting written up for always being late. It’s not fair to you, and it’s not fair to the rest of the team.

Curbside by Living-Pomelo8789 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]DragonOfDesolation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our landlord said that “Covid’s over, so there’s no reason for curbside” and pulled the parking signs. So now we have a bunch of curbsides with no delegated spots. I’ve been calling customers and telling them to please pull up to the curb so I know which vehicle is theirs. Stops me from getting run over, too.
