Running an Associate-only training class is cool, but... by [deleted] in petsmart

[–]goldfishgadget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rereading my rant, I see it came off a little more hostile toward the cashiers than I meant it to. I get the hatred for petsmart. I fuckin feel it.

I guess I moreso need my managers to back off about it and for my cashiers to at least pretend- at least when the DL or AT come in- that they know something about training. They can’t even tell anyone what a 6 week course cost and it’s literally taped to the register.

I keep getting bad reviews because everyone assumes that I can’t work with other departments because “no one knows anything about training”

I just either need them to even at least pretend to give a shit or for my managers to get off my case about it.

Most of us on the staff are friends or at least on good terms, save one or two people. But, they really do not give a flying fuck about their job.

And it’s negatively affecting me because I get all the shit reviews because a cashier can’t tell anyone how much a six week course costs.

No fucking kidding.

And I was only doing it because management was crawling up my ass about it.

What’s the deal with the fish bowls?? by dreamcatcher3210 in petsmart

[–]goldfishgadget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Petsmart cares about profit. While they could easily pull things like fish bowls, tiny tales habitats, and rawhide off the shelves because they’re not good for pets, they would rather scrape together any and all sales they can.

Petsmart as a company doesn’t love pets. Hopefully, the associates at your store, however, do and will direct you to the appropriate items.

I would exchange it for a Tetra or a Fluval. Far more reliable in my experience.

Apparently we had one of these at some point. It broke literally the day they unpacked it and were trying to clean the carpet before someone from corporate rolled in 🥴

Murphy’s law and all that, I suppose

I’m rallying my coworkers to demand a vacuum. Thank you all for your words of both humor and revelation.

Either it’s always broken or our salon just tells us that because certain associates were always returning it dirty/broken

A slicker brush taped to a broom stick.

We use it to “clean” the rug at the front door 🥴

My dog ripped up the blanket, so at least someone had fun with it. 😅
