Is everyone supposed to have MyTime now? I asked my store about it yesterday after seeing all these posts, and they said we wouldn't have it until the 20th.

They just raised it to $9, and they're supposed to raise it to $10 in another year and a half. I don't think they're going to increase that any time soon since they can just say they're already working on it. $15 per hour would be far more livable, though, even with part-time hours. Right...

I'm pretty sure they know the one in the break room is broken, but they don't care. There are two behind a door that's always locked in the office, and there's one in the Team Leader area that's normally being used for training. I don't know how anyone who isn't a leader ever gets anything...

There's a computer in the break room, but it looks like it's from the '80s, runs on DOS, and is completely unusable. I guess I just got "lucky." >.>

Yeah, but they never do that. They just swipe their card while I'm scanning their items, approve everything, and as soon as I hit "Total," the receipt prints. Then they're like "Can I use my gift card now?" and I'm like "Um, I was going to, but you already paid the full amount . . ." Even...

Whenever I want to use the computer to check my schedule or make a time off request or something on eHR, I feel like I have to go to war. For one thing, the door leading to the computers is always locked. Always. Half the time when I ask them to open it, they say the computers are already...

I swear it happens every time.

Considering that there are no jobs available anywhere for anyone where I live and it's been that way for a long time, I should have suspected something like that when they said they would hire me.

I put 40 on the application, and they said nothing about that being an issue. I'm pretty sure I also said during the interview that I needed a full-time job, or at least I thought it was implied when I asked if full-time positions were available and they told me "yes." Regarding the rest of...

I mean, I guess I should be flattered that they found me so much of a commodity that they needed to mask the truth in order to have me as a team member, but us princesses have to pay rent so we can keep living in our castles, you know?

I guess one could argue that the answers given to the questions I asked at my interview were about employment at the store in general and not my specific job, but I feel as though I may have been horribly misled. After I finished answering all of my interview questions to the point where I...

That's good to know. I don't think the people who are in charge of giving me information about these things at my store actually know that.

My welcome packet and my trainers insisted that eHR would be accessible from home once I get my password set up (which I haven't), but I've never even been able to get as far as a login screen from my home computer. It keeps saying it isn't available from the website when I click on it. They...

Thanks. :) My first day went pretty well. I enjoy being a cashier, and they don't seem too hard on their employees here.

I'll keep that in mind next time I see a sea witch in the checkout line. :-P
