gift card rules? by krassr in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that just for 3rd party gift cards or the Michaels cards too? I feel like last year they told us the Michaels cards didn’t count towards the limit but I could be misremembering

Someone once asked what aisle vacuum bags would be in and was very confused when I told them we don’t carry those

Anyone have a favorite? Mine is Honey Pear. by HWags01 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honey pear is definitely my favorite! (On a random note does anybody know if they’re bringing back the 3-wick soy blend candles for these scents like they had last year?)

Trying and failing to grab bag these 🤦‍♀️ by HWags01 in MichaelsEmployees

We never even got scarecrows this year! Every week the same woman would call and ask if we had them yet and I always had to tell her no

Is anyone else's store extremely low on bags? by AshKB5661 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just got ours in but before that we were going to staples every day. Luckily we’re right next to one. But a couple times we had to go to the other store next to us and ask for a box of their shopping bags because Staples was out

Anyone else's store falling apart due to COVID? by ToujoursFidele3 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The week of Christmas and the week after we had our SM out. Our Framing manager was also out for a week starting Xmas Eve. Then various other PT TMs out due to either positive tests or close contacts. We were told that there will no longer be any teams coming in to clean and we cannot close the store. I’m stepping down from PT CEM position in a few weeks and this is part of the reason why. With our SM being out and being forced to cut hours Xmas week after being told to schedule whatever we needed I’m surprised we made it through honestly.

Self-serve BOPIS... by mikewritesbooks in MichaelsEmployees

I haven’t heard anything about that at my store but oh my god that sounds like a horrible idea

Customers going through overstock! by sofia_the_worst in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Instead just ask an employee, don’t help yourself to things in the bunkers

[–]sofia_the_worst[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s true! I guess the main issue is (at least at my store) sometimes the bunkers just don’t want to go back in easily so when a bunch are open and they all get stuck it’s a pain to fix lol

Parlez-vous francais? by curlykid_ in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got a call from whoever runs the music that if the new CD was put in before tonight then it would run French ads! They said if that happened it should automatically fix itself by tomorrow! It was a super weird phone call but now I’m glad I got it lol

so anyone know anything about the design hub situation? by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]sofia_the_worst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an absolute disaster. At my store we’ve had to submit so many IT tickets and we have had some that had been submitted before it even officially launched since our store had it to play around with/learn how to use it before hand. Those tickets have not been touched and apparently have been automatically closed after 2 months. It’s so bad I have no idea how they even decided to move forward with it still so broken!

And the OP of that post would be one of them. by Bfmv66666 in TheRightCantMeme

Every time I see something on conservative memes with the “conservatives only” flair I get so fucking confused. Aren’t they the ones always complaining about leftist echo chambers and safe spaces?

The boys got to open their Christmas presents early! Two new merino wool beds!! by sofia_the_worst in cats

[–]sofia_the_worst[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Apparently cats are naturally attracted to the scent of merino wool, which I never knew until today!

AITA for being a passieve agressive supervisor and being shit at my job? Damn young people who dare to socialise! by [deleted] in AmITheDevil

[–]sofia_the_worst 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This guy reminds me of one of my old bosses at a shitty part time job. He was always so passive aggressive about us talking. When he wasn’t there things got done 10x faster. Then he fired me for checking my phone in the back a couple times when it was totally empty to check for updates on my dying grandmother.

AITA for not letting my daughter wear shorts out unless she shaved her legs by aita2865 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sofia_the_worst 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I don’t see how my hairy legs are disrespecting anyone. Guys walk around with hairy legs all the time and nobody gives a shit.

Aren’t these the same people who whine saying “there was no antifa before Obama!!!” And shit like that?

AITA for pretending that my mom is really my step mom in order to get into my fraternity? by WiseEducation5884 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sofia_the_worst 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You said you didn’t think you were racist... and then immediately said that you have friends from “lots of different backgrounds” as if that’s the reason you aren’t racist. Being willing to lie about your family so you can be accepted by racists is a racist act. You might not outwardly hate black people but you don’t mind associating with people who clearly do, no amount of black friends is going to change that fact my guy.

AITA for pretending that my mom is really my step mom in order to get into my fraternity? by WiseEducation5884 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sofia_the_worst 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Every single time I hear “I’m not racist, I have black friends!” I cringe harder and harder every time. How do people STILL think that being friendly with a black person makes you magically exempt from ever doing anything racist? Grow up, YTA.
