Notice or not?

How many who work for Bass would be professional and give 2 weeks’ notice? How many here would just quit once you’ve found other employment? Bass is my first job, but I’ve found something that would be better suited for me. My future employer wants... — read more

I’m still here

So, how many took a job at Bass thinking it would only be temporary? You know, until something “better” comes along? Then years later you’re still here. I am one of those people. I thought eventually I’d find a better opportunity, but I never did -... — read more

Middle Person Macon

Schedules just went up and it looks like my stores hours are getting cut after Christmas. Even department heads are getting lowered to 28-32 hours. Thought we would have a little while long before that would happen. Anyone else experiencing this?
