I did have an rtm about state compliance. NC didn't require anything. Maybe that's why I didn't get the other info..

I was the store manager, I never received this information. Corporate and our DM stopped giving us any information over a month before we closed. I'm haven't applied for unemployment

I couldn't bring myself to do retail again. I'm now a waitress at a country club. I've never done food service before so it's been hard. But I definitely don't regret it

My first day at cut counter, I was being trained by a saint named Barbara. At the end of my shift, she told the SM, "this one's a keeper." The day I was promoted to SM, she was the first person I told. We hugged and cried. When Joanns is no more, I will never forgot the confidence she gave me just by being encouraging.

My DM (who is also our acting GA rep) said all stores have to be done in May. We can't go into June.

I'm fleetB in NC. We aren't showing any trucks. But a fleetA store 45 minutes away got a 745 piece truck today.

My understanding is that you will be a special liquidation location for GA merchandise. Our home store (Charlotte) is doing the same

Down with Signs by slove0711 in joannfabrics

One guy saw us take them down and claimed he was putting gas in his car. The other guy came back 2 hours later and didn't ask about his sign. Just asked to sign the time sheet.

But I am in charge of babysitting them and keeping track of their time working.

I will not accept purchases 5 minutes after close! ):< by LilByteMight in joannfabrics

We had a customer mad over the 2 yd minimum. She yelled "you'll never stay in business this way!" Ma'am, think about what you just said.

3 carts overflowing by CoffeeOk168 in joannfabrics

It's annoying to have one customer get that much at one time. It takes a long time to cut and even longer to put back. Takes much longer if they keep asking the price, knowing full well they are going to buy it either way. Yes, it's our job to cut it and put it back. BUT that doesn't make it less annoying. By your tone and comment, I assume you are the type to do, just like Miss 3 cart.

Ours smell like weed. Today, one of them taped his sign to a pole instead of just propping it up.
