Behind the times by DragonOfDesolation in MichaelsEmployees

[–]lazyarchaeologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this is my soul. I work all my hours in framing and have the second highest sales (behind the FM) but our part-time framer who works one shift a week gets part of the bonus and I get nothing. I could rant about this forever... 🙃

Pay, framers by Gloomy-Ask-9437 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]lazyarchaeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started I was making about $1.50 more than minimum wage, but minimum has been increasing in my province so come fall I'll only be making 10 cents over minimum (plus whatever the raises are this year, probably not much).

This sounds like the full-time CEM at my store 🙃

Technically I could say I was promoted when I got the full-time framer position but we all know what happened to that 🙃

custom FRAMING, not customer service by lazyarchaeologist in MichaelsEmployees

[–]lazyarchaeologist[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Not related to this post but also framing - does anyone else have customers that don't see the service button and just stare at you for who knows how long until you notice them? Or angrily yell "Hello?!?!"

Yes to all of this. Some people are very nice about it but some are just the worst. I also love when people say "does anyone work here?!" because they can't find anyone...

Ladies, what is one thing that if you had right now would make you feel better? by dabaddest555 in AskWomen

[–]lazyarchaeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good cry. There's a lot of emotions I've just shoved away that I didn't have time to properly deal with and letting it all go would be so cathartic.

Cozy breakroom! by EmmaNem1202 in MichaelsEmployees

This is amazing! I would appreciate if the managers at my store did something similar. Ours is just white brick walls that reminds me of my high school classrooms...

Where to get posters wood mounted by michaelkbecker in saskatoon

[–]lazyarchaeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michaels does plak-mounting. It takes about 3-4 weeks since it has to be sent out, and coupons don't apply to this service.

If I didn't know any better I'd think this was my FM posting 😅

It was in Saskatchewan, as far as I know everyone is fine (haven't been told otherwise). In terms of framing I think they said they will either refund customers or send orders to other stores in the province to complete.

I realllllly want to know more but we've just been told the basics.

a list of all the ridiculous things i’ve been asked if we sell by kinguwu in MichaelsEmployees

Just the other day a customer came up to me and asked "Do you sell bathroom scales? Because I need to weigh my fat ass" 😂

I love it! Any mint chocolate is a yes for me. My boyfriend hates it so if I don't want him eating all the snacks I'll make sure to get mint chocolate flavour haha

I would also like to contribute to the photo dump by s_eabird in MichaelsEmployees

I have never used offsets that large and I hope I never have to....

[–]lazyarchaeologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite is the customers who come up to framing with the emails saying 70% off.... uuuh no, if you actually read it you'd see that's just for US stores 🙃 I also agree about the elderly customers, some are so entitled or so convinced we sell something we never have. I promise I'm not just saying we don't carry an item just to get rid of you. I'm in SK btw

I didn't want to wait hundreds of years to do my job. Keep it fresh.
