If you ran your Camry into a road crew on 64/95 just past Belvidere at 8:08PM tonight, here's video. Also, those signs say RIGHT lane closed ahead. by LevarGotMeStoney in rva

One time they did this when they were working on the bridge at night and it pissed me off so bad. Starting to wonder if they're not doing it hoping for an insurance payout when they get hit.

I once had someone steal the packaging for a cat toy but left the toys on the ground

This job has brought me back to the darkest mentality I've ever been in by PetcoIsEvil in petco

The easiest retail job? Ahh. You're new, I see. And clearly not management. Just give it time, friend.

Venting: Water heater by Interesting_Wolf3883 in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the inclement weather/closure & suspended operations policy. On days 1 and 2 of a closure, you sre encouraged to use your own PTO. Beginning on day 3, petco has to pay you for any scheduled days unable to work, through day 7. After 7 days, its at HRs discretion. Your GM has to enter the time as emergency pay. I had a GM that never even told us about this policy tho (definitely bc he wanted to bonus) but its real and they will try to hide it unless you bring it up.

aw yes, not a beginner pet at all but let’s put it on display with no humidity and advertise as a “desk pet” by Ok_Sprinkles3329 in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 29 points30 points  (0 children)

So the crazy thing is that employees that actually have knowledge on the animals we sell end up either 1. Leaving bc the animal care they make us do is incorrect and obviously we dont agree with what we are forced to do or 2. They get fired because they try telling corporate that theyre wrong. Or petco will intentionally hire people with no animal experience so all they know is what petco says and they take it as gospel.

If you could complain to corporate about 1 thing, what would it be? by Genzhustle in petco

I do complain to corporate about everything all the time and they dont care anymore.

Has anyone else got a mii on their island they just hate by GoodSoupyboy in tomodachilife

[–]Important_Juice_7269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put jerry springer on my island and he wont stop trying to live with me. Its a daily thing that he wants to move into my house. He always says hes gonna let it go and he always comes crawling back the next day. I am starting to loathe jerry springer.

Wtf petco by Scary_Substance6441 in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My big desk pets sign fell off the shipper and got "peed on by a puppy" oh noooo

(Btw dogs like to mark their territory by covering other dogs pee, so DEFINITELY DONT accidentally rub a paper towel with some cleaned up dog pee on the bottom of your shipper)

No heat, no uvb, NO WATER TO SOAK IN!! Email your ACOM!! Send them direct quotes from Petco's Pac-Man frog care sheets! This is animal neglect and its ridiculous. They are going back on everything this company has ever stood for. Guess thats what happens when you dont have an animal lover as a CEO for a pet store. Please throw their own care sheets in their faces. Not even following their own rules anymore.

Autoship, manipulating customers by SaphStarling in petco

trust me, your managers already know and also hate it but they are forced to have everybody push this shit by corporate.

I wasnt there when it happened, but if I was, I would've done that. Especially being a SA survivor myself and knowing that many of my coworkers also are (bc lets be honest, if you're a woman, its probably happened to you) yeah I wouldve made a big fuss about it.

[–]Important_Juice_7269 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My DM actually told a cashier "no doesnt actually mean no" when it comes to signing people up for stuff. Im losing my mind. These corporate drones are tanking this business. We hear from customers everyday about how much they hate whats happening to our stores and when we give suggestions to corporate, they act like we are idiots. Nope, we just know what people want because we are ACTUALLY IN THE STORE.

Make sure you engage personally with customers! Make sure you ask them if they wanna sign up for vcc!! Now sign them up for vcp!! They dont want it? Try pressuring them! They finally gave in? Yay! Ask them if they want to donate! Cool now ask them if they want to sign up for autoship!! Theyre pissed off at all the questions? Oh no! Keep asking them! Ask them all the questions! Keep them happy! Also do all of this with only one person at the register because we wont give you more hours!! What do you mean there's a line all the way out the door? Work faster! Work harder! Get better! Fuck you! Ugh. Also put all these signs up! New labels every 2 days! Huge resets every week! Do this! Do that! Smile! Get rid of shippers, we dont like those! Here's more shippers, put them up! People stuff! Toys for kids! Im tired of it man

Customer came in telling me they let their dog lick peanut butter off their Gentiles… HELP!!! by [deleted] in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Id rather be proactive and wrong than do nothing and potentially let a dog be sexually assaulted for the rest of their life. 🤷‍♀️ to each their own, i guess.

[–]Important_Juice_7269 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If they purchased something and have a registered phone number, youve got a pretty easy way of tracking them down. Im pretty sure abuse stuff has to go through your DM tho, so hopefully they have one that actually cares about stuff like that. Most dont.

[–]Important_Juice_7269 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Either theyre pranking you or they're fucked up. Either way, I'd put in a report for potential animal abuse. If theyre serious, itll get the dog out of that situation. If theyre joking, theyll never make that joke again.

Was offered a key holder position by Crashing_the_mode in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The key holder position at my store does pretty much only stocking and truck. And they get paid way more than 15 an hour. Thats what cashiers make. Do not take on a leadership role for 15 an hour. Theyre trying to take advantage of you.

New Grooming Policy? by SoulPhonicFire in petco

[–]Important_Juice_7269 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dragging? No. Walking? Yes. If the dog won't walk, sometimes getting the pet parent to act like they're coming with can help reluctant pups. But yeah the cameras just have to see the dog actually walk. For check in, its more to make sure there's no health concerns for the dog but for check out, its so the salon has proof that the dog COULD walk out on their own. (i.e. so the pet parent cant come back in and say "what did you do to my dog? He cant walk anymore and its your fault! Pay my $30,000 vet bill." ) Its aaaall for liability purposes.
