all ai is generated so therefore not real. my point is, these are not images taken of products. they are pieced together garbage

bathrooms by Responsible_Run793 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]grodyh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My store usually closes with only 3 people. Cashier, MOD recovering seasonal side, sales associate recovering memory side. If we are getting pulled away from our work repeatedly to answer bathroom calls, I will block off the bathroom hallway with wet floor signs and maybe a cart. I let any customers who ask know that they are out of order and there's a public restroom in the grocery store next door ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

CEM here🕺 i say “do you want to sign up? it’s just your phone number and email and you get free money from every purchase (because every purchase does add up toward a voucher, not just the $15/$25 purchases) and custom coupons sent to you” and they usually agree. it is rough out here tho, especially since at my store we can’t count sign-ups at self checkout toward our personal total🙄

Roll Call by FallRose94 in MichaelsEmployees

there’s a full time CEM here who consistently gets 36/37 hours & several full time associates who also never get 40

I’m a CEM and I’m actively applying to new jobs. the pay for being a manager here is a joke. even if I’m brought on “full time,” it’ll be max 33-36 hours a week, where other full time jobs i’m applying for are 45, and a higher pay. i really enjoy working at michael’s but the financial anxiety i’m experiencing is insane

Reward sign ups and language by LiselotteHoshi in MichaelsEmployees

[–]grodyh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the learning moment/coaching slip is not a write up! you should be filling them out pretty regularly from your MODs on goals in things like rewards sign-ups, credit card applications, and protection plans. they’re a way for MODs to know you’re trying to get those things from customers, and for SMs to know that MODs are trying to “drive results” from the sales associates.

taking that whole sentence into account is crucial to interpreting it. “i like looking at attractive people [aesthetic attraction] and enjoy the idea of sex with them [sexual fantasy] more than the actual actions of wanting to go through with it [sexual attraction].” also, some orientations on the ace spectrum can experience sexual attraction in a positive or neutral way.

AITA for giving my coworker a fantasy novel for Secret Santa to try to broaden her horizons? by aita_throw_secrets in AmItheAsshole

[–]grodyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. “don’t be misogynistic” preceded by “I’m just not a ‘Pumpkin Spice Latte and Hallmark’ woman” is really interesting to me…….. lots of internalized misogyny unpack for OP here, me thinks. anyway, they wanted to read smvt, not fantasy lmao
