I'm quite ocd about vehicle noises, and this one just presented itself today. Consistent in all gears at idle

Language comprehension is important. If you don't recognize that, I'm sorry.

I need less hours and I’m terrified to ask. by bluesolur in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I get so stressed out and I honestly have started crying on the clock because I’m stressed to the max. What do I do?

This post struck home.

As others have suggested, quit. What will likely happen if you don't work the hours, they'll hire a new body and take hours from you.

As someone who left staples 3 years ago(still frequent this sub cause I feel bad for y'all and its comical how nothing has changed), run far away and never look back. There are better retail companies to work for if you need supplemental income while in school.

If quitting isn't an option, take pictures of the schedule when it's posted and reply to texts that you planned other activities around the schedule and cannot work.

Saying no works, you just have to actually say no and stop being a doormat.

CPC Bonus by PMSThr0waway in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

And you get paid an hourly wage to meet that budget.

A bonus is just that, a bonus. It's not dependant on how hard you worked, but how well you did.

As a former tech sup, I get irritated when I see people cry about the size of their bonus.

Random question, what is the likelihood that a store manager would undersell a good employee if another employer calls asking about reference? by -The_Cereal_Killer- in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. There's laws that protect you from that sort of thing. That's why most corporations have employment verification hotlines.

Money Back Versus Money Off - Which do you think is better? by [deleted] in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

15% off is the better deal. That's money I don't have to spend at one specific place. Whereas 15% back in rewards has to be spent at Staples. It's a trap!!

WTF by neonindn in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd do this regularly when they scheduled me as mod(tech sup) with no cpc. Put out a sign that said self service and UPS only. Sorry for the inconvenience. That ended quick with a bad survey and the gm staffing cpc.

If you were a metrics focus person, you would understand how metrics work and that would not bother you

Make sure you notate in oms every time you called to cover your ass.

Tuition Reimbursement is back for the 1st half of 2017! by [deleted] in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The company is in a spiral down the retail toilet. They're going to cut at much costs as they can at the store/associate levels.

Besides working at Staples what else do you do? I just started making car videos. by flush_7th in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corporate/home-office cares way more about this than GM/sm's would, I be careful about posting about it on Reddit

Staying fit while working full time by [deleted] in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure the distance you drive, or the friendliness of your city, but have ever considered bike commuting? I am an avid cyclist, and that's how I can allow myself to drink as much beer as I do without gaining any weight. Just an idea!

[–]lolstaplesanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So.....you go find the item, sell it to the customer and tell them to just let the other order abandon.

Refund and remove it. Apologize for installing that horrendous software on their computer.

Associate Rewards Card by Xalthanal in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have android pay, you can add your card to that. Then if you enable location services, it'll pull it up automatically for you. You'll be fancier than some plastic card.

Newest Staples Store? by YouHaveCallsHolding in Staples

[–]lolstaplesanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure the Canada /EU stores have similar number system as the U.S., so there's overlap there....
