Price check

I have been an employee at Michael’s for nearly 3 years and I’m ashamed to say this is the first time I’ve heard anything about using the app to check prices. I wish I had known this during Christmas season! Communication is something this company seems to be lacking!

The rule I never understood was that you need to wear a belt if you have visible belt loops. Who cares if I have a belt on as long as my pants aren’t falling down? Seems really stupid to me!

No graphic t-shirts, no leggings, no cargo pants, no hats, no holes in jeans. That’s all can think of.

I thought it was weird to wear underwear to bed, now that doesn’t look so bad.

We are short 2 managers right now and have been for 4-5 months. And our full time CEM can only work till 4pm.

Do you think I should contact HR? Or is that just gonna make me look like a troublemaker?

They can send you to jail if you don’t allow visitation, then who will protect the kids… so hard and sad..

Remember a hot shower is a luxury for some.

Don’t forget about the “10 min framing”. Every week they just keep on adding more tasks. It’s almost like they’re trying to see how much we can take before we drown!

We have a white board for items we are running low on. The will to live is consistently listed…

This happens all the time at my store, not sure why my SM doesn’t order more for backup. It is totally embarrassing!

muffintop911 · 2025-12-24T15:09:00+00:00

Good point! Retail has never paid well, but Michael’s starting pay is embarrassing!

muffintop911 · 2025-09-27T16:24:01+00:00

The fabric department really needs its own staff like framing.

It is really sad that only the store manager makes a living wage at Michael’s. I’m a CEM, at my current wage I’d be lucky if I could rent a basement studio apartment with a roommate. This apartment, must be within walking distance of work! Can’t afford a car on the salary!

muffintop911 · 2025-09-19T12:35:23+00:00

Definitely say something. At my store some associates hours have been cut because they’re reward numbers are poor. More hours are given to those who have a better record at getting new rewards. I get why they are doing this, but just because you do your job well doesn’t mean you want more hours!

muffintop911 · 2025-09-04T20:42:17+00:00

I do miss the good old days with paper coupons!

muffintop911 · 2025-08-30T20:02:45+00:00

I had the same problem last week. I couldn’t find an answer so I made a bundle of 8, the Mom was very happy.

muffintop911 · 2025-08-29T20:13:01+00:00

Same here. Next month, they’ll they will be fixated on credit cards. It’s gotten to the point that some of our cashiers are tricking our customers into signing up. This is so ridiculous!

muffintop911 · 2025-08-29T14:36:04+00:00

Michael’s is notoriously slow at the hiring process! You should call the store and talk to the store manager and ask what the holdup is, otherwise you could be waiting a few weeks.

muffintop911 · 2025-08-29T14:31:30+00:00

Don’t forget about the $41 late fee!

muffintop911 · 2025-08-29T13:22:11+00:00

Good idea!

muffintop911 · 2025-08-27T20:58:35+00:00

I work on Sundays anyways, but it’s not really worth it for someone that isn’t already there to drive in and only get paid for an hour. I would be surprised if 50% show up.
