My husband works at one of the clubs and he has been complaining about the implementation of the so-called block scheduling. I can’t seem to understand it. Would anybody be kind enough to explain how the block scheduling works, and why it was... — read more 

https://www.thelayoff.com/t/10HdZ4hs If you cannot see the writing on the wall then you deserve what is going to happen to you. Everything is lining up to copy this. Come February Sams will look very different on management structure.

This past Thursday - August 22nd - there was a grand opening of a Costco in Sharpsburg, GA. This would normally not be worthy of mention but in this case, Sam's Club #4789 happens to be right next door. In my experience, this is the first time I've... — read more 

Does anyone have a clue of what could be going on? Apparently all the MM are in Dallas for meetings this week and we know generally that's not a good sign.

Be it more title eliminations, layoffs, hour cuts? Any of that?

To those in the position...How is it going? Are you able to meet goals? Would you encourage others to take this position?

Are we the only store that doesn't have mats for the cashiers to stand on? We had mats when I started, but the mats got old and were tossed. Management never replaced them.

Do you still get points if you call in around a key date even if you have enough ppto to cover it??

Anyone? #jobs #safety #Thoughts #Layoffs #Gold #ideas

When I was hired a little over 11 years ago, I first interviewed three times, each by a separate manager for a different area of the store, all one after the other on the same day. I was offered three different positions and had to choose one of... — read more

Any clubs going through major resets? Also any news on the new mapping program? And will it work?

From what I see that’s the whole brilliant strategy of our leadership to keep the numbers. If that’s not the writing on the wall and a signal for anyone that plans to stay at Sam’s, I don’t know what is. I once loved working at this company, but... — read more
