Well, my mom usually drives me to work, but when she got up this morning her car wouldn't start. I'm supposed to be at work at 2, but since she can't drive me as usual I have to wait for my dad to get home from work around 4:30. I called around 11 to tell them I wouldn't be able to make it in until around 5. I was sup...

Does anybody else's store round minutes up or down? My store rounds 7 minutes up or down to the hour mark. How is this legal?

Since it snowed quite a bit the day after Christmas I felt it wasn't safe to try to come in so I called off. Something like 20 people called off the front end alone. I was wondering if I would still get holiday p...

I was talking to a fellow employee today when the store manager stopped us and asked us if we knew what the 7x7 rule is. Were supposed to within 7 ft. and 7 seconds of seeing a customer, acknowledge them, make eye contact, ask if we can help and generally engage them. Well I told the manager I knew what it w...

You know the display of phones at the service desk ? Somebody stole one of the phones .... No retailer is going to display a real phone .. And if they did it surely wouldn't be on Velcro .

I just got hired. I got a letter to join the union and my stated payrate was listed on it. There is an overnight premium for working third shift. Would the rate on the paper be before or after the overnight premium? Thanks
