Maybe it’s better to make the leadership part timers

The last few months have been really bad - I honestly can't figure out why. I mean, we've seen our sales slowly go down for a long time now, but never as much and as suddenly as in the last several months. Any other stores noticing anything similar?... — read more 

Hells Fargo

Why is our 401k money still being administered by Wells Fargo, a known cesspool of shady sales tactics, fraud and subpar service? Time to distance Lowe's from from this ethically-challanged entity Marvin. Lord knows Lowes has enough of its own... — read more

Anyone else have a hard time working with the new part-timers?

Don’t want to badmouth anyone, but at my store it has been a mess, think that took an hour to do now take 2 hours, and the newbies even don’t want to learn anything. Is that the general opinion, or was my location just unlucky to get bad workers.
