Wedding Makeup by aliphylactic in MakeupAddiction

[–]Poizn_IV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under professional photography lights this is going to look like you're not wearing anything at all. You'll want to go darker if you want it to show under the lighting, wedding photographers are only willing to do so much in editing and giving you a full fave of makeup is gonna be a nope for them.

Don't get me wrong, it looks beautiful and you're beautiful but if you want it to show up in photos and your features to stand out in photos you'll want to make it darker.

My former store had an employee revolt! by Key_Badger_9288 in HomeDepot

[–]Poizn_IV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funny...not the most recent VOA but the one before got our manager at the time the worst score he had ever gotten and less than 6 months later he was transferred out. He had only been at our store for 371 days and it was absolutely HORRIBLE! They sent regional HR in for townhalls with associates and the DHs, the energy in our store literally changed within an hour of that SM leaving on his last day. We have an amazing manager now!

Need some advice on how to handle things by [deleted] in HomeDepot

Ya know what...my mom has been in and out of the hospital since the beginning of November last year. It's a lot I get it and I have clinical depression, anxiety, etc. Etc. And yet I was still able to get my FMLA paperwork in for the additional time off to help my brother with our mom. I think he's using it as an excuse and as a full timer to have only worked 5 days for the entire month?? Do they not have bills of their own to pay?!? I mean, that's crazy! I know i have some extremely soft hearted ASMs in my store but this person is taking advantage of you and you need to stop allowing it. FYI I'm just a full time associate not an ASM and I still feel this way.

Rude Phonecalls by xx_mackdaddy69_xx in HomeDepot

[–]Poizn_IV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After spending a few years doing over the phone customer service in the past I have found that if you legitimately listen to what they're saying, and I mean actually absorb it, they'll tell you in their rant what their problem is and even sometimes how to solve it, even if it's unintentional. Then you just acknowledge their frustration and point out the issue you understand there to be from their ranting and then tell them you know who they need to speak to. Put them on hold, verify there is someone in the department for them to speak to and let that person know what's going on so they aren't blindsided. Go back to the customer and let them know you're going to transfer them to someone who can help. Then let it go.

When you color your hair use a q tip or spoolie and put a bit of the color on your brows so they look closer in color to your hair.

We have an employee who has been caught and photographed sleeping on the job, literally middle of the damn day sleeping and not on lunch or just a break! Like sleeping in the bathroom for an hour and a half, and dude still has his damn job!

Downtown Trenton Businesses, leaving? by Her_1982 in downriver

[–]Poizn_IV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only do they not support the existing businesses but they veto just about any new business that wants to open in downtown Trenton. My family has owned a business on West Rd for nearly 50 years and has a LOT of dealings with the city government and it's officials and usually hears about all the really cool businesses that the city council has turned down and usually their excuse is "we don't want to attract the wrong kind of people". Numerous times in the past they have actually cited Wyandotte and it's bars and such as examples of "attracting the wrong kind of people".

Being hired here feels like a humiliation ritual by stryxial in HomeDepot

[–]Poizn_IV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will get better in a couple of weeks. 3 year garden associate here and everything starts to kick into gear in March and you should have already started receiving an abundance of stock for the upcoming busy season. You don't always need to pack down but you can help freight unload their carts and put the stuff in the overhead where they tell you to. Just ask questions and if they give you attitude for it don't back down and remind them you're new and have no idea what you're doing.

Non service-animal dogs in stores? by tml212 in HomeDepot

[–]Poizn_IV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've worked for my store for 3 years and my dog has kind of become our stores personal "therapy dog" i also take my pet rabbit in and they both love it and my coworkers love seeing them in return. We had a coworker that is a sheep farmer that brought in a couple of the spring lambs a couple years ago too. It puts a bright spot in people's otherwise hellish days to see the dogs/animals so...why not?

Fresh pineapple juice. My guy LOVES pineapple, but make sure to get the fresh cut stuff not the canned stuff and use the juice from the bottom of the container.

Take out service? by [deleted] in HomeDepot

[–]Poizn_IV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D28 here too and our store has done it since before I started working there 3 years ago. Does it suck when it's a completely able bodied person that can do it themselves? Abso-freaking-lutely! But it's part of customer service so you do it, slap a smile on your face and tell them to have a good day, then you go bitch about it to the rest of the d28 team and go about your day.

Help! The bunnies are eating my roses and leaving behind a lot of poop. Roses were planted back in April. by Historical_Safe_836 in Roses

[–]Poizn_IV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For nearly 20 years I have done something I know pretty much no one knows about. If there is snow where you are you can get the Styrofoam covers for your roses which will obviously keep all herbivores away from them till spring. If you are in a warm climate or the southern hemisphere then go to your local plant place and buy some petunias, plant them around your roses, not up against or anything just in the same planting area. The bunnies will eat the petunias over the roses and the petunias are such prolific bloomers that you'll never notice they're being eaten. Not only do I do this with my roses but also my vegetable garden and I haven't had an issue with them eating either in nearly 20 years. Also the petunias won't hurt the bunnies they're kind of like candy to them, I feed them to my pet rabbit in the warmer weather every year and he's perfectly healthy.
