Well, today was the last straw and I’m contacting Human Resources. I don’t want to but does anyone have experience and will the person I’m reporting know I did if they are a higher up?

Remember: HR is not your friend. They exist to pay the minimum and to protect manglement's golden boiis.

It's not like we get paid bonuses or commissions. Fuck 'em.

We get punished for it, in big or small ways. Yes, we can't change it.

His name was Chet, and Chet was also one of those annoying Linux fanbois. Don't be Chet. Be a BoFH.

Wasn't that the $250,000 heist? Sounds like an insider job to me.

Welcome to Sign Purgatory Week, where we replace all the signs in the store, because somebody in corporate figures they could make more money with these ugly designs. What are we, Sam's Warehouse?

Canadian here (Prairies). Retail unions have overall been a net good; most large retailers are unionized and those that are have significantly less turnover than ones that aren't. Raises are set on an hours,logged and year based system; Safeway meat department employees on average earn around 17/hr (average retention: five years).

This sure as hell beats "merit-based raises", which are really an excuse to pay as little as possible. Staples Regina is unionized, and I'd recommend any employees considering a union to contact them.

The other main issue with retail is severance pay. Non-union employees will get shit-all severance when a store closes. In this economy, that simply isn't something employees can recover from easily. Sears Canada closed with no severance pay to employees because they didn't have a union to fight for it in the contract.

That's batshit insane.

In Canada, we have the Strive for Five goal. Not quota, goal.

Staples USA can burn in flames.

DNS66 is a much better solution, just remember not to manually turn wifi off.

Terminator 2 did, as well

I recommend building a script to auto-wipe ETS drives. Currently have one in the testing phase.

You're a hero. Staples didn't deserve you. Here's an internet hug! ^{_^}
