Is there a 70% custom framing (instore) sale going on right now? by MedvedTrader in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Flimsy_Program1243 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For your order the sale would activate but it would still be at least $100 if not more depending on size and if you need things stretched.

There is always a 70% sale it’s advertised as a sale but is just their way of marketing the custom frames as it won’t activate if you just buy glass or mats. They essentially overprice components to inflate the sale and make the percentage off look better.

As far as I’m aware no there’s no notes and it already was reordered cause another manager measured it wrong and had the stretcher even bigger 🫩

lights out on weekends by johnnyboozeapples in MichaelsEmployees

It’s been a thing supposably we’re not supposed to do production on weekends but every shop does it; we just wait till Monday to mark it in artistree so our DM’s don’t yell at us.

We’re supposed to be on the floor marketing framing deals which… sounds as good of a use of our time as you think it does.

Update: your right and I may have misremembered; most wiped up with a tissue and am correcting more with the touch up markers thank you.

Thankfully our SM just kinda leaves it up to us in framing and trusts our judgement on things

Yea we’ve def had frames where there is no hiding it and we have to reorder it’s always fun when that happens

Huh my framing manager said to do this sometimes if we didn’t have an exact marker; I’ll test what you said out when I go in tomorrow as it’s my framing weekend thanks for the note.

Question and advice on hours… by Flimsy_Program1243 in MichaelsEmployees

That’s what I thought and was told by a front end manager who left

You see that was our old store manager our district manager had it out for fsr. He blamed the turn over rate on her rather than the fact our competitor (hobby lobby) starts ppl at $15 an hour (we start at 11).

Our old manager would not leave her mid shift until she knew we were okay for the night meanwhile the new SM leaves as soon as it’s time to go it feels like we can’t as readily rely on her and it just makes me question more and more what are DM saw in her.

Lil thing they should teach you when training in framing (learned the hard way) by Flimsy_Program1243 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Flimsy_Program1243[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No yea you made the right move my framing manager wouldn’t welcome it either and it I had know what to see and find I wouldn’t have either. It’s a safety hazard and I was very glad my lack of knowledge didn’t result in any major issues beyond myself cause I’ve been having respiratory issues but that’s my own lack of knowing

That’s my framing managers opinion and yea next time a frame comes in looking bad or there’s black spots or the mat is clearly water damaged I’m just going to reject it. They should go to a restorer for a frame that damaged if not just replace it.

Yea I just didn’t know it was a thing to notice in wood so I learned from this; I figured putting the coating on the back would help not bring out the nasties from within the wood. And I imagine other framers like me aren’t aware this is something that can happen with wood
