Which means likely the TLs from stores that lost headcount will be moving to the stores that gained headcount.

Which is so frustrating because our newest VMG only shows one store layout, which doesn’t match my store. So we’re supposed to reset an area with much less space than it calls for, and without half of the special fixtures (like the large white walls). My leads are getting frustrated because it...

I know it’s tough because you feel called out, but try not to take it personally. After a visit during Q4, we had a real crackdown on dress code too. Mostly because people were really loose with what counted as “red” or would wear things with logos/words. What probably happened with the email...

I believe it’s 32 hours a week average, and you have to have been working for a certain amount of time beforehand.

Same at mine, but for some reason the extensions for the different departments don’t actually work, so they just have one person in softlines answer every call. The operator position made sense when there was a dedicated fitting room attendant to answer the phone, but now that they implemented...

Didn’t see anything like it in our dollar spot. Sorry 😢

I’ll check mine tomorrow too! We’re behind on most everything so there’s a chance 😂

Oh my god THIS. I’m at a southern store. It’s hot and humid 80% of the year, and then we get to collectively groan when the heater turns on. This past summer, I was going outside on all my breaks because it was less hot in the shade out there than inside. WTF.

Dear Corporate, Since you told us we’re not allowed to have a fitting room attendant, can we please have our fitting room rack back?

I really wish I knew. We also aren’t given a rack at the fitting room anymore or an attendant, but we’re expected to keep the desk and the rooms clear at all times.

We have this going on now. Guest service is expected to call us for every two items (per department). But they only divide it into hardlines, softlines, and grocery. So I’m getting a call everytime anyone returns an item of clothing...

I think some people are keyed in as Back to School seasonal at my store. But chances are if you were hired as a seasonal then and are still around heading into the holidays, they’re keeping you on.

We have all shoes in one section except men’s. Which sucks because there’s barely room for the shoes as it is, and with giant winter boots coming in, it will only get worse.

Have they told you what they mean by updating? I’ve done backroom reprofiling before, but not sure if that’s what you’re looking for.

Same here. Ours is just sitting in the fixture room, which makes no sense since they won’t even let us have someone at the fitting room desk anymore. So now we are expected to keep the fitting room desk clear without someone working the unwanteds. ...how?
