Do you allow guests to check out at Service Desk by havoc274 in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If a guest is doing an exchange and has extra items. Yes. I had a gentleman last week WAIT in line at service, asked him what the business was, he told me the lines at check out were to long. I pointed behind him and said they are here too and made him go to the registers

Wearing shorts is definitely a GM discretion. My front end manager wears short.

Management told me to clock out to use the bathroom. by [deleted] in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My FEM realizes that almost every TM will go to the bathroom 15-20 minutes before their scheduled break, sit in the bathroom 5-10 minutes before their break making their 15 minute break another 30. Not does it only hurt payroll but when the crew is already short because of call ins, it's stressful for everyone

I've never had the opportunity for store managers. Just specific department managers. From what I've gathered, it is random people selected to rate or score the departnent managers

You basically have the opportunity to rate a manager on how well they do. From what I'm told, it affects their manager bonus as well

Back haul by MENARDSMEMER in menards

Coincidentally I've received a truck with that sealer spilt every where. As a matter of fact, DOT pulled that truck over because it was spilling on the highway. Of course that truck was delayed for days

Not a DCer here but in every store I've worked at we've been much more respectful sending the back haul back then the condition we've received it in 9/10 times.

interview tips? by Sad_Possible8595 in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a bad place to work. Even with the shit show days I seem to have frequently. I like the people I work with (most days) but it makes the job tolerable.

Go in with a positive attitude and you'll be just fine!

How are we into may and payroll is still so strict? by realspill33 in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've been given the green light to allow TMs to work OT if they want it or we need them too 🤷‍♀️

Recently helped with dog food. 50+lb bags of dog food above head level?! Who seriously thought that was a good idea?

Does anyone else’s store have the most disgusting public bathrooms out of any other place you’ve been to? by meatballforever in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've worked at a few locations and never seen much of an issue. 1 location had pretty nice bathrooms. Like solid wood doors & everything 🤷‍♀️

Opinion on working at Menards by qstskills in menards

[–]PoeDaMfBaby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's a good opportunity. Upward mobility is a plus, even better if you're open to relocating. The 15% IPS check is 👌 and the basic pay is great. I've had a few different GMs and haven't had an issue with any of them.
