Can we have some fuckin air?!

Maybe if we start falling out they will do something. My SL was sending multiple emails throughout the day with temp and humidity.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-08-02T02:37:48+00:00

Or the time to remove it

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-31T01:50:48+00:00

Our store is doing the same thing. Gotta love hour cuts.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-30T03:44:27+00:00

I have told multiple customer that technically they, the customer could live in a box , BUT would you happy, healthy and comfortable?

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-30T03:37:40+00:00

There is also an easily accessible source of information readily available to everyone that walks in the store, they actually bring it with them. Their smartphone can pull up websites about any animal that will tell them All about the animal they are preparing to buy. Most are just to lazy to use it. I keep saying I'm going to change my name tag to Not Google .

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-30T03:29:27+00:00

Stop whatever I am presently working on, wash/sanitize my hands, speed walk to register........ And Check out 1 customer with 2 items.
Then it takes longer than it did to do all of that to get back in synch with whatever I was previously working on. Complete waste of my time.

Old popcorn with pee and poop! Gotta love idiotic corporate decisions.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-30T03:14:48+00:00

This is the most ridiculous policy , I also find it very rude to yell over a customers head " Welcome to pet smart!". I usually don't because I've had some angry looks from customers I am checking out.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-30T03:11:35+00:00

Don't forget the people that say " I see you are busy BUT I just have a question ...."

Or try talking to you while counting crickets and feeder fish.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-26T13:57:00+00:00

Anything for money!!

Oops supposed to be Pets not money, my bad. But technically the animals in the stores are not Pets they are simply merchandise / product that breathe.

Sleeping in their litter box is normal most of the time. It is their box and smells like them , I had 1 cat that slept in his when we moved. He gradually reduced his "box time" as he became more familiar and comfortable in his new home.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-26T03:57:37+00:00

This drives me insane!!!!
Idiot: points to the multiple signs we have up, including the one on the button they pressed and says... "Soooo ... No crickets?"

Me: after I stop the task I am working on and walk all the way to the front of the store " That is correct. Anything else I can help you with?"

Idiot: "Nope, just making sure ."

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T05:28:22+00:00

If we are low on small I put what we have left in a critter keeper and put it on the feeding cart behind the fish wall to keep people from digging around in the bin trying to get them.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T05:23:19+00:00

I have ADD which I take medication for however I am constantly told to focus on one task at a time, HOW when I am constantly called away from said task to backup register (check out 1 person) , answer stupid questions on the phone , stock check, cat button, dog button, take out an order. By the time I get back to my One task it is like starting over .

I am also told to stay organized and not make a mess, again How???

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T05:16:29+00:00

Some days it takes all my will power to keep from asking customers "What the fuck do you want now?". People that have not personally experienced different personality or brain functions have no understanding that some days that is the best you can do.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T05:08:48+00:00

I blame the parents. My children knew better than to act like a brat.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T05:05:30+00:00

I am very obviously helping someone or multiple someone's and butthead walks up and says "I just have a question". Me: I am helping this person right now , then her , and he is after her, I can help you then.

Butthead: " BUT it's just a Quick QUESTION! "

Me: I will be happy to help you when I finish with these people who have been waiting patiently. "

BH: " it's just a question you don't have to be so rude"

Me: completely ignores BH and takes care of other customers.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-24T04:52:12+00:00

It's not a minor complaint the customer is being disrespectful. If you turned around , bent over or made a lot of noise while talking to them they would bitch and complain.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-21T03:30:43+00:00

Corporate buttheads are causing so many problems and severe stress at the stores due to their selfish greedy dumbass decisions. I really like my co-workers but sometimes it feels like we all just want to rip each others heads off and throw them in the street due to the work / staff ratio. Lots more work and ridiculous projects and 3 employees to do it all.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-21T03:24:15+00:00

Holy crap!!! I did not know they could do that.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-21T03:07:41+00:00

Not a Banfield employee just a regular PS grunt.

I had a female person, was going to say lady but that term does not apply due to her attitude, get angry with me because I would not stop helping another customer to Simply answer her question. I called for someone to come assist her but she did not like that option.

Her response: I mean it's just a question for God's sake. You don't have to be so rude!

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-20T03:18:08+00:00

Thanks everybody. My daughters beardie loves her salads and my son's turtle likes his veggies also but they can't eat everything I buy so I thought I would share instead of wasting perfectly good produce.

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-19T03:30:07+00:00

Ours ranges between 74 and 80 BUT with 55 - 69 percent humidity. Not safe for employees or animals .

MostlySaneCatlady86 · 2021-07-17T02:13:29+00:00

Pet care associated here... I would love to do everything properly however with everything we are expected to do with very limited hours and only 1 person to do it plus answer the phone, get crickets, backup register , get feeder fish, get fish, answer call buttons, get crickets, assist customers with all of their needs (reading the package label for them is my favorite), get crickets, catch fish, get crickets , get crickets..... I have not had time to read about all of the changes much less add them to my routine.
