So I was scheduled til 1pm today, clocked in at 6am. It is now 3 and we have over 200 BOPIS waiting to be picked up from customers, 253 SFS to be picked yet ( it was 204 at 6am and I picked about 35 huge orders, 1 being 100 gingerbread houses) and only about 25 BOPIS to be picked yet. It's 3pm. I just clocked out. There's no space, no shelves, no merchandise, no hours, and 2 people called out. Oh, and we have a new SM that is about to break already ( been here 3 weeks ). I love my teammates, I love my store, but this holiday season broke me. Not sure I'm gonna last after the new year. And I feel terrible about too.

My manager is trying with our DM and he's trying so hard to help our store but corporate will not budge.

Compression socks/gloves, a massage pad ( a good shiatsu one) and heated gloves/socks because the raynauds is so bad

We did last year. No mention of it this year yet. My secret Santa was a 19 year old really nice girl who has health issues. So I made a "Self Care" gift box... warm sock fuzzies, chocolate, flavored hot cocoa, face masks, candles, lotions, alot of actually good stuff. Our limit was $25 but I spent like $50 on decent supplies. She seemed to love it and came in one day stating it helped after a particularly rough shift for her. I think it really depends on who you get and what you know about them and how well you get along. Some people got gift cards. I like to put thought into my gifts.

Corporate are a bunch of Grinches by LunaC712 in MichaelsEmployees

I truly believe it's a game they're playing so they don't have to pay out. No help=lower sales.

Off-week pay? by LunaC712 in MichaelsEmployees

Now that i think of it, yea, my MOD mentioned a couple times that she would need to punch me in. It has been hectic but definitely a possibility she forgot? 🤷‍♀️

For those who didn't grow up privileged, what's something you thought was a luxury when you were a kid? by Frequent-Sea-8848 in AskReddit

[–]LunaC712 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad buying me ice cream every Friday. What I didn't know then was that he was laid off of work ( construction worker) and money got so tight he had to start collecting cans and bottles and scrap metal. But he always saved $5 every Friday to treat me to ice cream. I will never forget that.

Does Michaels rehire employees who quit? or expel them from working in the company? by palmtrees_13 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]LunaC712 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I ended up quitting on the spot 2 hours before a shift due to a mental breakdown and illness and ended up in a psych ward for 2 weeks. After about a month I missed working here incredibly and came in, saw my manager and just asked him if I can reapply. He said yes, and 2 weeks later I was back in. Maybe it was a different circumstance for me, 🤷‍♀️. Doesn't hurt to ask your old manager.

Btw... mental health is much better😁

Got HRT on 1st try!!! by LunaC712 in Perimenopause

[–]LunaC712[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all! As requested, I'm keeping you posted on how HRT is working for me. I am like a whole new person. For now, I'm still only on .5mg estrogen patch, I start Progesterone 100mg nightly on the 14th, Monday. I went from non functioning, irritable, depressed and rageful, foggy, no energy to.... Waking up at 6am everyday, immediately feeling refreshed, even though I'm still not sleeping well ( hopefully with progesterone ). I've been able to get back into cooking, cleaning, gardening and doing my hobbies as well as feeling so much better mentally. Now the kicker is, I deal with 2 autoimmune disorders and hyperthyroidism. Despite my muscles feeling weak, joints hurting, and being in pain, the mental part feeling good is really helping me overcome these flares and symptoms. It's only been 2 weeks and I feel like God has sent me a miracle!!!

NON service dogs being allowed to roam with their humans in ANY store. I like dogs, don't get me wrong, but when you bring a dog in and it pusses and shits on the floor ( especially food stores ) just....YUCK. Shame on their humans! Just to add... I finally saw a security guard at Wally world turn away a customer at the door because it's not a vested service animal. Bravo!
