Why are whole families allowed in clubs?

Why isn't home office limiting how many people can come into a club at one time. I keep getting groups of four, five, and above. Even husbands and wifes could be limited to one or the other. The associates need protection, someone who cares that... — read more 

Optical

Any word on Optical closing? We deal with members up close & personal, none of this 6ft distance, we have still been so busy to where it's hard to keep up with disinfecting glasses, dispensing tables. I had to go out and buy cleaners bc the store is... — read more

Club Pickup

Really wish Home Office would make it clear on the website that placing an order does not guarantee that item will be available on the pickup date. So tired of people complaining they ordered it 3 days ago why don't we have it. No understanding that... — read more 

First Quarter Bonuses

I am going to just take an educated guess that sams will redo the sales and profit projections so that we all get screwed out of a better bonus and blame it on payroll.

Points

I feel like the mangers should have to clock in like associates. We as associates gets points but however your managers can't get to work on time. Who agree with that. It's not right nor fair. Keep up with them lead by example. They are quick to... — read more

Our sick ours they took from us!

This company should let us use our built up sick hours we can’t touch right now to take time off work because of this corona virus. Anyone else agrees?

So now were "heros"

Stop club pick up

Home office: if you’re listening: STOP CLUB PICK UP FOR NOW! It’s too overwhelming completing 71 orders (not even a big volume club) when there is no merchandise and angry members. First come first serve. Stop club pick up!!!

New club hours

Starting Tuesday 9am-8pm will be new hours for time being

Returns after the fear is gone.

We already have had people bring back hundreds of dollars of food, because "they bought too much." I'm not sure what the company can do, but they better address this issue before it gets out of hand.

Anyone else tired of being yelled at by members because we no longer have the merchandise they ordered? We are 4 days out from members even being able to place a pickup time. It is insane.
