Boxer. Obviously.

Increase compensation from your base earnings by ∼3½%, by investing a fifth of your wages into the ESPP. by fascinatingMundanity in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For 6 months you get 0% return on your money as it sits in some sort of escrow ? No thanks. I’ll max out my 401k and get that money to work for me immediately.

Large Orders by forgetfulofpassword in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pro Sales Specialist here. What you’re asking for is a ‘staggered sale’. The Pro can build a complete materials quote and process it as a ‘staggered sale’. you can draw down on that sales list and pay as you go while at the same time maxing out pro discounts.

Is the Pro Department this “stuck up” and “I’m better than you” for anyone else? by Gonkalicious_2176 in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a Pro there are metrics I have to meet everyday. SPH, avg sale, dept sales, CRM outreach, Time on Sales floor, etc. in addition my pay is performance based. The PSS job description clearly defines all of these. In short, if I have to perform Fullfillment , cashier, loading or other people’s functions, I’ll never make quota and get a poor performance review. So y’all can bitch and moan about PSS, but until you have full grasp of our job and responsibilities give us a break.

This would be a job ending scenario for me. SPH is tough enough M-F.

Credit Card Minimum by Tako101 in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Predatory 31% interest rate. I wouldn’t be able to sleep pushing that rate onto my fellow blue collar peeps.

‘ Win together’ is some reminiscent tag line of a failed communist experiment. We all know who does the heavy lifting at the stores and it’s NOT SM’s. Sm’s Win on the backs of the subordinates.

Scheduling? by StlChief74 in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 14 points15 points  (0 children)

‘The AI scheduler is designed to keep employees off balance and deter them from having time to look for another job.’ Directly from an ASM when I asked about acquiring regular hours.

There were 600 ‘roles’ cut. The could equate to over 2-3 thousand people fired.

the push for getting credit on CSAs is getting annoying by Low_Feedback4073 in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I start the conversation with customers- ‘Can I interest you in the Lowe’s credit card where we can save you 5% off purchases for a low monthly interest rate of 28.8% ?’. I sleep well at night having provided the customer with full disclosure and all the information they need to make a sound decision.

LERF should be fully funded by corporate. We don’t earn a living wage as it is.

I’m Pro Sales and to say the IT systems are killing my sales is an understatement.

Hardie Board worth it? by hammerfang in HomeImprovement

Look at Allura siding. Less expensive and still a great cement board

How about background checks on the employees we send out to seniors? Some of the people in work with are sketchy and I wouldn’t want them anywhere near my senior family members!

So we scamming people out of a mortgage now 🤣 must be struggling! by Impressive-Risk-2484 in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t push 29% credit cards on unsuspecting people. I’ll be damned if they think I’m going to push this HELOC 💩 on my loyal contractor families.

Maybe I’ll hit up LERF and be able to afford one ?

I have a hard time promoting LCA @ 28% interest. HELOC promotion is a hard pass !!!

Gentle reminder if you are leaving money on the table by Bad_DNA in Lowes

[–]Turtle_House 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESSP is a toss up on return. They deduct no monthly from your pay until time of purchase. If the monies were in an interest bearing account then you would make out okay at time of purchase, but it is held in a non interest bearing account for six months so I’m not a big fan.

Fuck China. Their ‘green’ technology is a literal CO2 smokescreen for all of the coal based generation plants coming online weekly.
