Managers hours

Great idea?

I have a great idea this site should be renamed sams club rumors! Maybe 10% of the topics are about layoffs. So since nobody can stay on topic it seems like the perfect idea. I never in my life seen a board far so far off topic. Thoughts?

Computers

So what is the deal with the computers? Who actually gets to keep one?

With things only getting worse.

I'll ask everyone, what is your breaking point now? Myself, I do not understand why everyone is clinging to this place. Only a small few would have a legitimate excuse as to why they still stay. I just handed in my 2 week notice today. I am done with... — read more 

What the furner?!

Have you worked the new desk? It's a Furner mess. The lines waiting to be served are ridiculous. People actually walk away. Do you understand? They walked back out the door. A complicated return can take up to ten minutes. It doesn't... — read more

Regional VPs

We get told before any visit regional and MM, to only say positive things about block schedules and the new roles. How are they supposed to know how bad things really are if they are only told about the positives? Do you guys experience this too? — read more

Are all Market Managers of a willfully ignorant sort?

Or are they just simply ignorant?!? If you're a MM and you make the mistake of holding court before a group of us for 45 minutes, and all you do during that time is blather on about how we're not doing our jobs according to how the system has been... — read more

New desk looks cheap.

I gotta say, this new desk looks cheap. Definitely not upscale. Might as well be a couple saw horses topped with particle board. And people are going to pay to shop here? Home office must be joking.

DC to Club Transfer

I work at a Sam's DC, and I'm planning to transfer to a club that is closer to where I live. Does anyone know how your pay is calculated when you transfer from a DC to a Club? I'm currently making 21.50, and hoping to at least keep the same pay.
