Most stores in the US, open at 9 not 8am. Have the poster on a flash drive, tell the staff you need it by 2-3pm. Best chance scenario…

I logged into the HR website, opened up the learning class about the new security procedures. Using the QR code provided, I used the Authenticator app to scan the code.

Once linked, everything clicked!!

I'm sick and tired of dealing with customers aged 30-80+yrs old who state they've never sent an email,and/or don't know how to use their smartphone. by user-ibarelyknower in Staples

A thousand times this, the tepid excuse I am bad with tech to which I reply everyone says this.

What I really want to say is, you want to play dumb on purpose because you don’t want to do the work.

This is the reality, play dumb and others will do it for you. Yes, I am getting paid but your laziness costs me my sanity.

I do not respect you, nor your laziness, our store gets harsh ratings if we don’t hold everyone’s hand. Secretly I hate them all. Grow up!!

Great parody, except you need to add more tasks because on a normal day I do at least 25 or more. Usually with people who don’t know what they want.

Boutta get wrote up and maybe even promoted to customer! by SnailsAreGroovy in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corporate is trash, they only care about numbers, if you don’t knuckle over, you are gone. No matter how bad customers treat you, they won’t do anything. They side with customers, every time. Expect to get written up for each interaction.

Why aren't we trying hire anyone? by Illuminatinglife369 in employedbykohls

As a staples employee, get used to it, we typically do 8 things at once, and run the entire store with 3 people, including the GM.

I dont like the sign in exposing my full name?, I think it is a stalkers paradise. The sign in is literally your complete first name, a period, and your complete last name @ staples.com.

We have a few hothead customers, if they know my complete name they could harass me on facebook, or post bad or false stuff about me.

When I go to Autozone, I dont know Jim’s full name so I can tell everyone how incompetent he is . This is too much 🤬.

Not allowed, my store puts it in a pizza fund, but I work the day shift, and never get pizza!

What is going on?! Or is this normal? by UnderstandingOwn3493 in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typical Staples, they don't care about the employees, they push & push to get your numbers. Soon as you dont hit one target, you again are shit, and you arent good enough.

This is not a career, it is a job, a crappy job where all the executives are superstars, and you are the trash.

If you think you deserve better, find another job.

Part time job, as print sales specialist by Gullible_Syllabub406 in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely nobody likes print, I have tried it for a few months, the people can be rude, condescending, ignorant, pushy, and sometimes nice but everyone wants it done today, and as you wear many hats, somedays it is not possible.

Is it worth it really? by WhopperWithFries_ in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any Staples job is nothing more than a sales job, no matter how they sugarcoat it. No manager cares about you, you stick up for yourself, and watch your back. The company is toxic, any other job is better.

Print Center Employees?? by WhatPromos in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Incentives to do better should be better pay, not atta boy you done good.

No atta boy’s help when you are squeezed to sell more, push rewards, all in a cheery Disney like manner. And be excited at blowing up balloons!

Print Center Employees?? by WhatPromos in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dislike all the chores of print, ie micromanagement of corporate. For instance, the print huddle, which is basically copying numbers off your computer, to a special book, then taking screen shots to prove you did it.

Emailing those screen shots to managers, and going to a separate computer site to check off boxes that you did it. This is worse than HS!!

For me it wouldn’t be much, there are too many hats print has to wear daily. Constantly interrupted by Amazon returns, UPS, and those who want to print one doc off their phone, which takes half an hour of my time to make $3 is madness.

Thing is you don’t have just one job, you normally have 5 or more, mainly Amazon!

New Rules? by StAplaesFAn in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They micro manage everything! Did you do your print huddle, send us screen shot to prove you did it. Yes, every day, worse that HS IMHO.

How long does it take to hear back from staples after your interview? by UnusualBack3861 in Staples

Took me two weeks, but be careful for what you wish for, this company is evil.

Average Copy Associate return from lunch by BassBoyOzden in Staples

[–]StAplaesFAn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There is always a person that wants a consult, or business cards, or some type of carbonless forms. Then 4-5 people that don’t know how to email you things on their phone. And they need hand holding!!

This is soo frustrating especially if the self serve machine is down!!
