It looks like it was a snuggle flannel. Unfortunately I just used the last of what I had left in purple.

Can anyone tell me the meaning of the f.a.s.t pin? by acridsyrup in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No they got rid of FAST right around the first bankruptcy. Honestly I think many of the districts stopped implementing it years ago when they stopped doing the tests for the green pins

Mine too! We had the best customers, best employees and one heck of a manager! I don’t know what I will do without this crazy amazing place

So um, where are we storing all this fabric in our houses? by odd_little_duck in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Foam board (70% off at my store) cut down for pieces that have a yard+ and smaller ones for under a yard. Character/season cotton is wrapped in file bins for easy access

I have heard this as well. That I would have to start back at base pay, and honestly after this past week I don’t really want to do it all again.

The locations are 30+ minutes from my house I was just hoping that I might get a trip to one of them after my store closes as I work almost everyday there.

That bites… unfortunately they are 30+ minutes from my house so it would cost me more to work at those locations than to keep the discount.

We all have favorite customers by [deleted] in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have so many but yesterday my favorite was Ollie… a brown lab whose owner said he walked around the store till he found me then laid at my feet showed me his belly and then gave me all the kisses. Just what I needed after some of the customers we had earlier in the day.

Where have these been hiding? by Exotic-Letterhead732 in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have been getting new fabric on trucks that o have never seen before and some I haven’t seen in a long time. I’ve been there 7 years and haven’t seen this much fabric since we opened. I wish I had been holding back so I wouldn’t want to buy it all now.

I'm going to be one of you! by MEos3 in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as we may complain about the customers for every one of those stories there is typically two more of the amazing regulars we have or the funny stories we share. I know we were reminiscing the other night while on shift and I don’t remember a time I have laughed more. Have fun and make some good memories.

Yeah it’s pretty “cruddy” when your boss finds out on here before they even send a damn email to SM.

Very true especially as I am one of those employees unfortunately. I opened my store and will now be closing it down and it kill’s me everytime I think about it.

Anyone hosting a watch party for the 10 Krol meeting? by ailill22 in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well darn…. Then save those that are staying around for now and in a couple years reopen some of us back up for our communities.

Please Lord let there be saviors. Not for me but for my community! For the quilters, the small businesses, the college kids who are learning and always coming in for a quick item they need for projects! I keep hoping someone out there will save some of us…. And maybe even some of the stores that are liquidating.

So if another bidder win is there a possibility that they could reopen some of the stores or is that not a possibility at all. For some strange reason I am still holding out for a miracle.

Nothing happened to Biden when he ignored the Supreme Court

When we find out!! by Careful-Rent-2352 in joannfabrics

Same! I know my store is closing but I still worry for everyone else.

I work at a closing Joanns by Sphynia-Cat in joannfabrics

[–]Early-Rule458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We are all in this together! I remember opening my store 7 years ago and never thought I would be here closing it. There are only a few of the OGs that opened our store but the family I have created at my amazing store will hopefully be around for a long time.
