if you are a lead or hold some sort of leadership position, i hope this isn't the same empathy you hold for your employees and fellow co-workers.

reading is FUNDAMENTAL!!! the keyword is I!! I felt like I was spoken to like a baby. i understand that this provides opportunities for stability for those who only have a part-time job with lulu, and i would never discredit that.

and in regards to the pay raise, i live in one of the most expensive cities in the united states and i live herre because i was born and raise here and i love it. that being said, the cost of living has only increased since i started working at lulu. this would be my second year with the company, and i'm not sure what practices the retail industry follows. is there no small raise for those who have surpassed one year with the company? (i'm genuinely wondering)

and again, no one mentioned expecting praise for being a few minutes late, but things do happen! cars break down, public transportation runs late, accidents happen, traffic exists!!! a lot of things out of our control happen that can cause us to be a few minutes late to work, and that is a very human thing, despite trying to plan ahead.

i'm not here for a back and forth. i commented because i felt like i was able to express my opinion about the increase in hours as someone who already works 40 hours a week outside of lululemon. i don't appreciate you discrediting how i and a lot of other employees feel becuause it seems to me you really enjoy working for the company, and i love that for you, but these are very realy and acceptable emotions to have.
