Is anybody else having an issue trying to look at their schedule? I keep trying, and it keeps telling me to set up 2SV, which I did when I started at Sam's Club almost 7 years ago! Fix it, Jesus! Or Wal Mart...whichever comes first.

Earning less than new associates

Ok, I will give it to you straight, since I am in this very position. I am a double digit long time associate who only makes $15.00 and hour? Ok, I mean $15.30. Wait what? yes, that is it. It's not right since I get leaned on quite a bit to do more... — read more
