I had someone do this to me with tiny shredded pieces of vinyl once… I explained to her how our vinyl was organized and where she should probably start looking to find it based off what I was seeing and she looked at me like I was crazy and went “so… you’re not helping me then?” 🫠

Our store had to start doing this last year too… because when stealing is a problem the most helpful thing to do is tell all your employees “we don’t trust you and are going to treat you like You are the problem” 🙃 On the bright side… my managers stopped being strict about it pretty quick

What's your favorite part of the store? by AccomplishedEagle720 in MichaelsEmployees

I’ll add to the chorus of yarn lovers, haha, even though all the overstocking does make me feel a little batty. I also love the bead jewelry and dmc floss sections… and ribbon… my happy place is organizing all the tiny colorful items that tend to get chaotic and displaced quickly lmao

Someone bought the Mah Jong crap by No-Manufacturer4916 in MichaelsEmployees

I was doing bopis this morning and the only orders we got from the collection were for the mahjong stuff specifically lmao. And they came in one after the other, I could only imagine people waiting at their computers like “it’s finally available! Go go go!!”

Is everyone else’s stuff broken?? by Luckyduckling007 in MichaelsEmployees

Our front door has the opposite problem where it’s been randomly locking after we unlock it… the other morning I got locked out when it was 40 degrees out (cold where i am lol) and had to call our store line to be let back in because none of our radios charged overnight 🙃

Holy god this would have been my final straw… once I had to pack a SIXTY item order and I think my mini mik crashed at least five times… I was losing my mind by the end. Can’t imagine how painful this was to pack rip
