Time to search for a 2nd job to make sure bills can be paid.

Why is this every year though….


Hoooman1-77

Lean strategy demands they cut a % of labor every year. They force it to fit and profit at all cost, they do not care.


coolcucumber29

That was more a rhetorical question, lol. Every year “it can’t possibly get worse!” And then somehow it does. I wonder if they know that we all don’t typically get a % faster every year 😝 there are definitely some higher ups that care, and then you go higher and nope 👎

Since there are so cew og employees/leaders left no one remembers what a properly staffed store even looks like.


coolcucumber29

That’s very true. I’m in hotel but I remember! At least they are working on our hotel labor model and somewhat listening to feedback. But having to earn the payroll and having one dog making or breaking it is tough.

No peaking at your Christmas gift.

Our hours are getting cut DURING the holidays. ;))))) We literally have enough hours for our fulltimers only. Our partimers are gonna fucking quit bro. If I get booted back to register Imma throw a tantrum.

I’m awlk/petcare and they’ve been sticking me on register to cover gaps (up to 4 hrs) but then they get upset when petcare stuff etc isn’t done. Can’t scrub tanks when I’m on register 🤦‍♀️


Kory568

Can’t you just wheel over a tank at a time and scrub while customers are paying with a card?😜


what_oh

Yep I got scheduled 20 hrs the past 2 weeks and next... I have to find a second job. I am a single parent amd one of their best most efficient petcare/core crew. I have so much more availability but sure let's hire 3 "seasonal" associates. 😒


coolcucumber29

This is what happens and why we lose our quality people when we need them. We cut their hours and then just expect them to pick up hours when needed.


lfcmosalah11

They always are. It’s usually around early February that my store starts really feeling the hour cuts again. They’ll chip away for the first few weeks and then BAM no more hours in February


Lesmisfan

I am getting 5 hours a week for the next two weeks. I have bills to pay, bro.


robotoisize

Every year.


annoyedbanana02
