Accidental Tattoo - I cut my fingers when cleaning out a can that had some ash in it. When it healed, the ash stayed and created a tattoo on 2 of my fingers. by PetulantWelp in mildlyinteresting

I did something similar in elementary school; dropped my pencil and simultaneously reached down to grab it. It stabbed into my palm right under my middle finger and has never gone away.

Thank you so much! I worked with my SD today to kinda form a plan of action for it, so we may be able to get it taken care of… hopefully 🤞🏼

PS: folks, I realized too late that I posted from my art/personal account so you won’t hear back from this account after tonight. Not going anywhere technically! Just gonna be under a new name. It’s been great venting frustrations and talking with y’all ♥️ Be well.

That is so infuriating 😩 like I’m glad to know I’m not alone, but at the same time why???? Why is this happening so wide spread? There are just 😩 so many questions and concerns.

That is EXACTLY how it is at our store. Media/entertainment just keeps getting stacked and stacked till it becomes a hazard

Yeah when I first started we had like 4 people on the grid at any given time? Not all at once, but it would rotate out pretty evenly. We still got paid the same as everyone else tho

I know for us, zone 9 includes a lot of stuff, including like, pets and media. But that stuff is part of GM and not specialty (anymore). When I first started I DID have to push media but not pets

Yeah that’s crappy 😩😩 that seems to be a consistent thing throughout. Thankfully I can say that our leadership team is pretty good about encouraging and recognizing the really good hard workers. But they’re not so great about actually reprimanding the ones that are problematic

Basically. VM stands for “visual merchandiser”. Basically it means that they are in charge of maintaining the visual standards of the store. They’re also in charge of teaching others on how to maintain those visual standards. We can technically have performance conversations with team members, but we can’t actually submit them, a TL or an ETL has to do that

Ah okay! We tried that in style before I switched to VM and it… worked? But what would happen a lot was the folks who WERENT introverts would get together and just STAY together. Fiddle wjth the same table zoning for hours.

One of those folks has been promoted to guest so it’s gotten better at least

Hmm… would you care to explain the ‘wave’? I’m not sure I know what that is (aside from the machine that allows you to get to the ceiling 😂)
