We get at least two a day. Sometimes three. This isn’t normal?

Right, but no one is ever implying they aren’t gonna show up. Unless this is an inside joke I’m missing...

not to be rude, but why do you tell everyone this? I think people are just trying to learn what they’ll be doing ahead of time.

Really? Are you allowed to reveal what happened?

Pharmacy section.

Does department matter as far as staying on? I’m doing OTC (unless they ask me to go elsewhere) 5 days a week right now. Is that an area that usually gets cut after the holidays?

Good suggestions! I’ve been pretty up against it when it comes to hours, so haven’t been able to take many shifts. I have 4 days this week and next week though, so can try and get a few extras.

Makes sense. I just wish maybe I had a clearer understanding of how many the store I’m at might keep on. I’m cool with very few hours after the new year even, just wanna keep my foot in the door.

That might sound a bit complainy as I knew I was seasonal when I got the job. I just feel I’ve gone above and beyond what I was hired for and believe they should find room for employees that do so.

Gotcha. Really don’t want to stay on if they aren’t gonna keep me after the holiday. I’m doing so much, which I’m happy to do, but not if I’m gonna just be used and thrown away.

Does the lack of computer training I’ve been given matter when it comes to staying on? I’ve made every shift (so far, though there’s an illness going through my house), have never been late, stayed when asked etc.

This is the first I’m hearing of required online training as well. I’ve done zero computer training...

Also, so you mean if I bring it to the floor and I don’t need it, that’s when I should be scanning and adjusting the numbers?

So I was told the lady that runs pharmacy actually puts more on the shelf than she should. Is that also messing things up?

I just have so much. I’m worried I’m gonna run out of space soon. It’s also forcing me to have to split open boxes of larger items up, which is annoying because then it’s in 3-4 different locations.
