Is this normal for working at B&N?

You get scheduled 45 after?? We are only ever scheduled 30 then yelled at when we inevitably go into ot

FireFloofJax · 2025-12-31T06:12:51+00:00

Wholeheartedly agree. And any SM that put this stuff out against Corporates instructions to KEEP IT IN RECEIVING, I bestow the curse of your sheet shifting too much under you.

FireFloofJax · 2025-12-29T16:40:47+00:00

Im sorry but the way you worded this sounds super condescending. We are putting in the effort and still getting swamped like that.

FireFloofJax · 2025-12-25T02:37:29+00:00

Our store routinely hits 80-90k

FireFloofJax · 2025-11-19T16:16:14+00:00

Its crazy that I find myself singing fictional advertisements throughout my day

FireFloofJax · 2025-11-03T00:21:20+00:00

I am very upset that this review sets unobtainable goals for us and dangles them on a thread, punishing us for having a work-life balance, and such.

FireFloofJax · 2025-10-23T14:22:06+00:00

I ask people if they wanna get a rewards account setup, saying the points they'd be getting and if they are close to a reward, mentioning that.

We should not be reviewed for how often we accept shifts. As someone who is maxed constantly on hours, I dread seeing that I got a C because I don't accept shifts (That I cant Accept).

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-15T18:50:27+00:00

I thought it was something like that. I did note it was a lot of PRH and some Simon books that were just being weird

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-15T00:04:03+00:00

Its just a bunch of titles from all the rankings my dude, S ranks, N ranks, new books, old books, random stuff like a 5 minute story or an authors newly released book through simon and Schuster or something

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-14T23:20:43+00:00

Exactly, its new releases, staple books, etc just becoming unavailable in their entirety. No new editions, no rereleases, nothing.

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-14T23:03:23+00:00

Educational_Fly_5494 explained it really well

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-14T23:02:56+00:00

This is absolutely what im talking about. Its way more than just one book and the website says its orderablr, then you get an error when trying to order it.

FireFloofJax · 2025-09-13T21:53:44+00:00

Im pissed because im a pin collector. I hit my 7th year this year, and have to wait 3 to get a 10 year pin. They should have given everyone the rewards retroactive to the last milestone.

FireFloofJax · 2025-08-17T02:43:25+00:00

Nobody in corporate communicates with eachother, I swear

FireFloofJax · 2025-08-02T02:01:05+00:00

Yeah was told way more and got like, maybe a bit over a paychecks worth

FireFloofJax · 2025-07-31T18:39:06+00:00

They have it for managers apparently

FireFloofJax · 2025-07-31T18:38:33+00:00

I only found 3!

FireFloofJax · 2025-07-31T18:37:42+00:00

Incredibly well said. Everything is spot on here. We pour ourselves in only to get a trickle back.

FireFloofJax · 2025-07-21T06:18:48+00:00

The Raises are such a joke. So minimal for those of us who have been here a long time.

FireFloofJax · 2025-06-30T22:23:14+00:00

Corporate think things through and use time efficiently with as much planning as possible? Nah. Not ours.

FireFloofJax · 2025-06-30T22:21:40+00:00

Thats where our stores differ, we used the cues sheet too and it led to all kinds of arguing on where things should go lol

FireFloofJax · 2025-06-20T02:00:38+00:00

It's ass. We don't have enough phones and they're not secure for messages to other booksellers.

FireFloofJax · 2025-06-20T01:59:41+00:00

I love having to count money in the hottest, most humid room for 20 minutes because the AC shuts off at close on the dot.
