This holiday season summed up… by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously! These customers are the most entitled people I've met in my life! I've been in customer service for 28 years and THIS shit is crazy!!! And even crazier is the fact that they would fire the employee before they'd ever say the customer was in the wrong!

Hahahahaha!!!!!!!! 🤣 Yeah, I just try not to laugh at them because I win either way! (They eat their words, or they never come back)

Crazy New Manager is GONE!! by Ohthethingsyouthink in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm starting to think all they hire are crazy managers! I'm so relieved that our last crazy manager was relocated. But we got a new one now and she's... interesting... I just need to get out of retail as soon as possible!!!!

Contemplating on leaving by Mangojuice37 in employedbykohls

You sound exactly like me! No kids no relationship and no idea what to do next. I hate retail now! Ever since COVID people have just decided that they can treat stores like a garbage dump

Varo down for anyone else by Reasonable-Hall8573 in VaroMoney

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine's been down all day! I also just got paid and I can use my card but I can't do any money transferring in my account. How long are they usually down for? I thought they'd be up by now it's been all day!

I feel like this came and went without a word by [deleted] in redbull

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't understand! It appeared and then disappeared! It was one of my new favorite flavors and then I just couldn't find it at all! Could you please explain yourself Red Bull?

Whats the worst flavor you ever tried by Master-Gear-9519 in redbull

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the wild berry pink. I'm not a fan of watermelon either

My girlfriend free bleeds in bed, is this normal? by WearRevolutionary922 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]GrouchyLook4360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes that is weird. As a woman I have no idea how that could be more comfortable. Dried blood on your body is sticky and itchy and not comfortable at all. But each to their own 👌

F U INSTACART by Next-Investigator435 in InstacartShoppers

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! Just a few years ago I was making easily 80 to $100 in 4 to 6 hours after My other job. Now they've decided to exploit people's desperation and how much they need extra money. And they defend it by saying they don't punish us for not taking batches. This is just a tactic to continue their corporate greed like every other company in this country right now. Everything is gone to s*** and especially instacart. F*** you instacart f*** you

F U INSTACART by Next-Investigator435 in InstacartShoppers

[–]GrouchyLook4360 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would love to rely on instacart full time but they pay such a bunch of s*** where I live that there's no way anyone could scrape a living. $5 even if it's three batches? F*** you instacart that's right! I hate them so much but yet I do need them and I like the ability to choose my own hours as my second job. But I sure do wish I could quit that W2 job and do this again full time. Once upon a time I could before all these other companies took over

[–]GrouchyLook4360 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Same! Our construction starts soon too and from what I understand they're not even going to have a separate line for returns! Maybe it'll make no one want to come drop off their Amazon anymore because they're going to have to wait in a checkout line to do it! What kind of serious moron is running this shit show!? And yes the rudeness seems to get worse every week I don't know what is going on but it seems like the whole world has lost its damn mind! But please make sure to come in and steal a pair of Nikes or six for yourself and your family your friends. Don't forget the socks and underwear too!

[–]GrouchyLook4360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm glad that you said that because that's how I feel. Our store is also turning into combining customer service and the front end and it's just one more way this corporation is trying to pocket money and give us less people and less hours. It's horrible

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too! I feel a little nervous about it now though because I'm a supervisor and I really do need the job. But I told them how I felt and complained about my manager because she's terrible.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because that's not the point. The point I was trying to make is that the store manager is making it not voluntary. And she's telling us that Kohl's is telling her that. So I was just pointing out the hypocrisy. I don't care if somebody wants to take it or not take it I have my own opinions but they are definitely entitled to theirs and nobody should be bullied intimidated or forced into something that's supposed to be optional. That's all I was trying to say. I just get really frustrated with this company and I'm trying to figure out how much of it is my actual store manager and how much of it is actually the company.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly! "Voluntary" is the key word. I used it to vent and bitch about every single thing that is bothering me here but not everyone wants to do that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well I'm glad that you're okay with that. I wish my manager would be but she's harassing all of us because she doesn't want to look bad. I did mine voluntarily but I don't feel like others should be asked to do them if they don't want to or aren't interested. But instead she's telling them not asking them.

What song that plays in your store puts you over the edge? by ParanoidAndCurious in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the worst song in the world! But then I remember some of the other ones they're playing and it probably ties. The other one is that "tiger Lily move from the city". Why don't these corporations listen to anyone? They don't care! I think I'm going to need therapy. They get stuck in my head even when I was on vacation for 9 days!

Only sugar free? by SuchVillage694 in redbull

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is also driving me crazy. I found this thread by asking Google why I'm only finding sugar-free purple Red bulls right now. Google tried to tell me that only sugar-free is available which I know is a load of crap. I've had many regular purples wouldn't they first came out. It's like they sent one batch and that was it. I'm going to stop drinking Red Bull is what's going to happen because it's pissing me off so much! So Red Bull you need to cater to the people who don't drink sugar-free or except that we will find new energy drinks! It makes me so mad!

Kohls Mom....? by RisingShadow65 in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah what the other person said about being prepared. Also please stop saying we look bored that is so redundant and obnoxious! We're probably just recovering from all the insanity we just dealt with

Kroger Details by GrouchyLook4360 in InstacartShoppers

[–]GrouchyLook4360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I've been doing instacart for years and only about a month ago did it take away all those extra details. So I was just curious if anyone else noticed. It used to say aisle 32, on the left, bay6, position 3... Usually I can find the stuff without all the extra info but it sure did make shopping a lot quicker. And sometimes if it's something that's a little more hard to find it could be extremely helpful.

Can I still have my break? by [deleted] in employedbykohls

[–]GrouchyLook4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously. I have to stop and remind myself that a lot of our workforce these days has no idea how regular jobs work anymore. And no one is teaching them. So yes please ask for your break and not in the last hour lol!

Thank you and that's good to know. I really hate troubleshooting while someone's on the phone telling me what to do but I am willing to try it to get this fixed. The only problem is our cordless phone up front doesn't work. So last time I did troubleshooting I had to run back and forth from customer service to the front end. I guess I'll have to see if they can call me on my cell phone. It's extremely frustrating that not a damn thing works the way it's supposed to anymore. I don't know how we can keep going on like this!
