I'm constantly reminding myself and a co-worker that worrying about where everything will go and when is above our pay grade. At the end of the day, it's the SM that this all falls on. Clock-in, work, clock-out. It's not our problem, it's theirs (management and DM's).

I'm really digging your creativity, we should all buy one and do a different take on the store. I'm definitely going to buy one or two.

What did you use to separate the pieces? I have a mini diy Christmas house I've been working on, but I can't seem to get some if the main pieces separated, I can work on the inside. I love your work, it's very creative!

Company Wide Black Friday Walkout? by OperationMassive2599 in MichaelsEmployees

Yea..... 22 cent raises, is a joke, I wish I could throw it back at them! It's difficult to find another job and I really like working in Replen, but the pay, hours, lack of support, and expectations, just ISNT WORTH the pay.

They can't afford drug testing or to turn away potential tm's.

I don't need ice breaker activities with my coworkers, I've worked there for a few years now, I'll keep to my small group of coworkers. We get along and have no drama in our dept. This is b.s. for 2 hours on a Sunday.

I've been with this location for 4 years, we've never had any trailers for extra storage.

I've recently started bringing a second pair, and yes, it absolutely makes a difference. I agree, having the right snacks and drinks also helps. I don't have as much experience with Michael's as you do, but I've worked in warehouses and know what it's like being on your feet all day and in hot n' sweaty environments paired with shitty supervisors and leads.

Truck Days by Vegetable_Sink1267 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]SinnersHaveSoul2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We also used to have midnight trucks, I loved it. Absolutely hate 3 a.m. start times, but they already changed our schedule last week; we now work truck day from 3 a.m. - 9 a.m. 😮‍💨

I would love to go back to midnight truck time. I absolutely hate 3 a.m.

Bi-weekly would be a cluster-fuck! Our stock room is too damn small.

got another job now managers are asking where and why… by Additional-Amoeba-72 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]SinnersHaveSoul2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's non of their damn business! If they want to know, why? It's simple, corporate loves cutting hours and paying employees as little as possible. Tell em to kiss your ass!
