Macy’s standards furlough?
In the weeks I’ve been back, the store looks worse than a Walmart. Merchandise on the floor all over the store. I don’t even think thrift shops look Like that. No help to recover.... the floor is a hot mess. Hey Jeffy, put in a baseball cap and a... — read more

Time for union reps?
Maybe we need to bring a union rep to every Macy’s store? The way these stores are being run it’s disgraceful. It’s slavery. They do what they want how they want and treat colleagues like c-ap. Maybe it’s time?
