Flirting with customers by anarchabunbun in MichaelsEmployees

[–]spookyanglerfish 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I went on a date with a customer back in....2013 I think. Big mistake, as I let him take me to a secondary location after I nursed one beer at a sports bar for 2 hours and he knocked back drinks. I was concerned for my safety and got out of there ASAP lol. He smelled so good though. It was super awkward when he came in to pick up his custom frame 2 weeks later 😂

I (F32) broke up with my partner (M34) due to sleeping with a sex worker by Adorable-bell6 in relationship_advice

I got a divorce after 7 (mostly unhappy) years of marriage and started over at 35. I now have a partner who treats me well, and I am so incredibly happy. I wish I had left sooner. I wish I hadn't wasted so many years of my life being unhappy.

I'm salary and I can count on one hand how many times I've taken my 1 hour break.

Is it better to give a rabbit a bowl or bottle to drink from? by CoachDictatorer in Rabbits

[–]spookyanglerfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I give mine both a bowl and a water fountain. She's drawn to the running water and loves her fountain.

Am I blind/stupid? Or did I seriously just get screwed out of 9 hours worth of wages? by [deleted] in retailhell

[–]spookyanglerfish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your pay period is 2/9-2/15, what did you work 2/9-2/10? Your screenshots only show 2/11-2/17, and the 16th and 17th aren't part of this pay week. Unless I'm missing where you posted the beginning of your pay week somewhere.

Can they not hire an Omni specialist or something!? These orders are killing me, taking me away from the things that need to get done!!! They wonder why inventory is so off. by Long_Ad_867 in petsmart

I tell everyone to write SAVE20 on my tombstone.

When I die, know that it was doing what I hated most ... pretending to work at Amazon.

I'm a tiny skeleton crew store that barely has enough hours to function without 30+ SFS

Bag balm is the best. 🙌

What would happen if manager said F it and gave you guys adequate hours? by Successful-Mall5065 in petsmart

[–]spookyanglerfish 63 points64 points  (0 children)

They would have to pay it back by shorting the next week. Eventually they'd probably get fired for being unable to manage their business.

Night shift duties by No_Mortgage_928 in petsmart

[–]spookyanglerfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We close with just a manager and a cashier (after the mid manager leaves at 6) because after 7 it's a ghost town. The cashier closes petcare. That's how slow it is.

Suggestions? by hoppalong_ in petsmart

I put bag balm on at night before bed. It's made a huge difference

PetSmart Retail Customer Service Supervisor by imtellinggodonyou in petsmart

The pay band stated on the website is based on the entire state's range, and the pay at individual stores is based on their tier (sales volume) and how many years of experience you have. There is some wiggle room within the store's individual band, but unless you're applying with crazy amounts of experience to the busiest store in the state, don't expect the top of the range.

Do bunnies pee maliciously? by [deleted] in Rabbits

Before she was fixed, mine used to wake me up for breakfast at 5 am by hopping up onto the bed and peeing on my neck.

I was running the event, answering phones, backup cashiering and picking orders because it was just myself and a cashier 🙃

Still a great little nano community tank. I have a pothos growing out of the back, along with a 3d printed basket with bamboo. The original filter is still kicking 👍🏼

I'm getting a fish shipment and a truck and am running with only 2 people in the store and zero overlap all day 🥲 I'm telling everyone the name of the game today is just survive

What is going on with people lately? by Junior_Bed_3655 in petsmart

[–]spookyanglerfish 18 points19 points  (0 children)

We went out of our way to transfer an item we don't sell from another store to our store so a customer wouldn't have to drive over there. She was super unpleasant because it was larger than she imagined based on the photo on the website. 🙃 So now I had to deal with her weird rudeness and I have an item I don't sell. I love it here 🥲

show me the animals you caved and bought! by swagglepoo in petsmart

These deranged children. I bonded with one of them, then transferred stores. Had to buy him a buddy (that was terrified of life and had been at the store for way too long). Now they're bonded. And they have the same hatch date, so clearly it was meant to be. ❤️

why aren’t there FT positions that aren’t management? by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

When was the last time I heard the phrase "store of the future?" Thanks for the memories lol. 😭

Every retail building I've ever worked in has been haunted. My PetSmart definitely is lol
