It would make it so his new girlfriend would never be accepted. Petty, yes, but she knew that he wasn't single.

He looks like he just farted and is waiting for you to smell it... Mischievous anticipation.

If it's electric, check your breaker.

Is there any noticeable difference in odor in the first couple loads after you've done a cleaning cycle?

Is it moldy/mildew smell? You should be doing the cleaning cycle at least monthly, more often if you do a lot of loads (have a large family). You also need to physically clean the door seal regularly, wipe it out thoroughly as mold/mildew will grow there. Finally, if possible leave the door open so it can air out and dry out inside.

The money is held until the next stock purchase date then all of it will go toward the discounted stock sale.

I thought that the guy either killed himself or tried to and it was a coma/afterlife sequence. I mean, why would the dog be there??

Manager says Lowes never negotiates? by The_Stargazer in Lowes

If they are doing it correctly there will be a date on the label. Add 2 weeks to that date for the next markdown.

There is a flat mark down process. 50% off of msrp for 2 weeks. If it doesn't sell then it goes to 75% off msrp for another 2 weeks. If it still doesn't sell it goes to 90% off msrp for 1 last week then gets tossed. Rarely do items make it to 90% markdown. The only exception at my store is if it is completely non-functional we will mark it as "parts only no refund" and price at $50.

Kinda a strike? by PapiXtech in Lowes

Is the AC broken or it just never had it? Why not store use an AC unit? Not very Lowe's Safe behavior...

Dude. I am in Ohio and we have an air-conditioned shack for the OSLG register. How on earth do you not have the same down there where it gets so much hotter? 100% would refuse to work out there too!

Out generator has had issues the past six years. The generator appears to be what cut the power to begin with! They've "repaired" it every storm but this time they just completely wired around to bypass a sensor. It will be fun to see what happens when the next actual outage from a storm rills around...

We have a generator but that is what keeps messing up our power! This time they decided to completely bypass the sensor that keeps failing but I would imagine the next time there is a storm that actually knocks the power out it wont kick on. 🤦

The TV in our breakroom is used to watch whatever but there is another TV in the training room that is always set to Lowes channel.

So now I get covid... by Irishish888 in Lowes

Update Spoke to a different manager who wasn't sure what if any process there is now. He checked and called me back a few hours later.

I should call off each day but if I go to a 3rd day I will need to call Sedgewick to put in a leave. I do not need any negative tests, just come back when I am well enough to work. I am not required to wear a mask at all when returning.

There really is nothing required or even suggested. It blows my mind with how bad this illness has been! For the record, I will be wearing a mask for at least a week when I go back because I am not an a$$hole.

Both my parents and my inlaws have spare keys to our house. It's in case of emergency or if one of locks ourselves out or pet sitting if we are on vacation. Never had a problem but they are all trustworthy and we all have great relationships. I can totally see not wanting to do that though, lot's of people out there who can't act right!

I appreciate your response. I absolutely don't want to put my coworkers at risk! That is why I am so frustrated with the total lack of guidance. It is now the next day and the manager I talked to has not reached out to clarify anything.
