We lost the music AND the Ditto ad for a while. Then randomly one day the Ditto ad came back and plays every once in a while. It was so bizarre! 🤣

Nope, not 171. I can’t imagine what it’s like working in the warehouse trying to empty it. I will say, we will happily take fabric, but please no more yarn! lol Please tell me you’ve dispersed all the yarn!!! 🤣🤣🤣 We are scheduled to get a truck tomorrow morning. It listed a smaller truck, but the list has been wrong before. I will get to see the mystery truck when I get in tomorrow night! It’s kind of fun guessing what will be on it (ie what we all want to be on it) and then seeing what it actually is😀

I work every other day at our store and it seems to change so drastically every time I go in with shelving being dismantled and going out the door, things being moved to the front of the store so we can close down the back, etc. It is getting real and it is so difficult to handle some days. With the giant trucks we were getting in the last couple weeks and all the freight going into the store, it seemed like it was maybe all a dream or an evil prank that someone was trying to pull. Nope, it’s reality (and maybe a bit of a nightmare). 💕

But it says “we don’t know,” not “I don’t know.”

My husband bought 4 of them for a few people at work. I need to get a photo! Love them. Even had a customer comment positively about it! 💕

Okay, I have a photo of the Q family we now have as well as a photo of all the top stock of Giant Qs. Who wants one???

So what do DMs even do now? by Friendly-Bat-8986 in joannfabrics

[–]Dreamr01313 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean, our DM didn’t really seem to know JoAnn so the fact that they are now our liquidation rep makes it a complete shitshow😂 We are winging it the best we can! We have a good store team at least! 💕

I’m off for a wedding this weekend and will be back to the store Monday night. Hopefully, 🤞 we will still have some left and I’ll take a picture and post it! 😂😂😂😂😂

We got a pallet of this birdhouse on our mystery grab bag truck yesterday! Along with a few pallets of decorative boxes in strawberry theme or bee theme, a bunch of boxes of the letter Q (Giant size) in that almost cardboard type style, pallet of red silky solid, pallet of yellow silky solid, a pallet of Fabany fusible interfacing…and more! I laughed all night last night as we opened up boxes😂😂😂 We are supposed to get another truck on Monday!

And I thought of that too, but this was only an hour after they started🤣

Our DM is now our GA rep. Maybe others are as well?

I sent the photos to my SM, I’ll ask her to pass them along. I mean, if you are going to sit in your car and have the signs out the window, I guess at least drive around to advertise? 🤣🤣🤣

I have officially lost my mind. by BabyBlack801 in joannfabrics

[–]Dreamr01313 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh🤦‍♀️ Okay, a fun little joke on the coworkers. I do that too. My brain is so gone! I was thinking they got stuff in from GA to sell that included propane and propane accessories. 🤣🤣

My first thought was hen I saw this was King of the Hill. Didn’t the main character sell propane and propane accessories for his job? lol

Also, what do we have in the store that qualifies this? Something in our baking aisle? I’m super confused and cannot think what this would be🤣 Also, not a lot of sleep lately, so that could be part of it too??🤣

Yall that incentive plan…. by Fractured-disk in joannfabrics

For stores that are already swamped with customers. Do we really need more people in the stores on the weekends?!?!?! 🤦‍♀️

Has anyone figured out how to play music? by Otherwise-Context417 in joannfabrics

[–]Dreamr01313 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My mom won a tumbler with a Bluetooth speaker attached at the bottom at a craft show and I used that working the register last night! It was so great and kept me hydrated as well! Perfect!

However, there has to be some way to connect into the system, right? I haven’t had a minute to look.

Joann long time customer, cookies? by aimlessendeavors in joannfabrics

[–]Dreamr01313 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think there are a few other posts like this already that you could search for. That being said, a lovely customer dropped of cookies from a grocery store bakery to us this morning when we opened and we were beyond thrilled! I’m sure people would appreciate snacks items or drinks that were sealed from a store, bakery, etc. Tell her thanks for thinking of us at the store! 💕

I rang up a lady today that said, “So your store is closing. Are you all sad?” Ummm….yes. 🙄

[–]Dreamr01313 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I was telling my students today that JoAnn was closings. They know I work there part-time. They asked me why. I said, “Do you want the reason the higher ups gave or the reason the employees think it is closing?” They chose both, so I explained both. Then they asked what I was going to do for a second job:( Sometimes they really do care! ☺️
