Doesn't matter

Whatever happens, myself and my INCREDIBLE team is going to flourish. We don't need 3 letters before our name to make or break us. Retail is retail and if we can do SO much with the little we're given, AMAZON can (and will) take us all.

Advice too all my fellow managers- take a picture

Of your current demand schedule- when you are fired because you can't do your job due to the hours cut -20 to 31 hrs- you can use this when you try to get your unemployment approval!! Thinking ahead!

No layoffs at CVS before 2019?

Just wanted to be certain. We are safe in December? I know next year will most likely be very messy, but it'll be nice to enjoy at least one full month of job security - id that's even what I can call it at this point.
