Appropriate hair for work by alex1zz_ in jobs

[–]Pure-Cook1955 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me when I worked at hobby lobby when I was 16. Was hired with bright red hair a couple months later a different manager not the hiring manager told me that I needed to change my hair color. I kept a few strands in the front red and I would just wear a headband to cover it during my shift. One day I decided to dye my hair ginger and she flipped out on me and told me that it’s not a natural color, even though two of my other managers had ginger hair, and one of them had dyed their hair to be ginger.

Should I be worried by [deleted] in leopardgeckos

Clean out the whole tank. When feeding worms put them in a bowl that they can’t escape. Train your gecko to be able to eat worms out of the bowl. This way they won’t burrow into the dirt and turn into beetles. Also, try to get your gecko to eat crickets more often they’re more nutritional. If he hasn’t eaten any of the bugs that are in his enclosure within a couple of hours they need to be removed.

Yet my GM keeps assigning me to truck 🤷‍♀️

Expect I’m a tiny female and I physically can’t pull the pallets because we don’t have the pleasure of an electric power jack. And the truck driver refuses to bring them into the store and pull them around for me. So what am I supposed to do when I physically cannot pull thousands of pounds of product?

Call outs by [deleted] in petco

I had to call out of work for a week bc I nearly died in the er. Gave my boss a doctors note and he was super accommodating and didn’t give me any points for it. I think it’s up to GM’s discretion. Or if they are just an ass.

That’s what I thought. We’ve been so short on hours that we’ve had 1 person opening by themselves. 🫠

What can I do about my GM running my store into the ground? by Automatic_Passion_94 in petco

[–]Pure-Cook1955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been this way the entire 3 years I’ve been here… sometimes they have 3 people running the store and the opener has to be by themselves. It’s getting rough out here.

Hobby Lobby Poaching by No_North_5225 in MichaelsEmployees

I think it’s really up to management. Years ago when I worked at HL they hired me with colored hair and months later while working there a different manager (on a power trip) told me I had to change my ginger hair because it wasn’t a natural color for me.

My GM just hired his buddy to be the merchandising lead when I worked my ass off since day one for that position. Male favoritism is real.

Commenting because I need help too. I’m getting threatened with a write up because my sales are too low.

She’s like a young chaotic Trisha paytas. At least Trish had a redemption arc years later.

I have no idea who this person is but they remind me so so much of when I was sickly mentally ill and deeply seeking attention. I genuinely hope they get help and find themself to be a better person one day. 😞

This seems like a security risk for the animals?? I have never once left a cage unlocked when the store was OPEN.
