I still can’t believe this is happening. My 25 year career will be over as I chose not to stay. Good luck to anyone who stays. Things just aren’t the same anymore. I’m sure going to miss helping the associates as it won’t be the same for them.
Regarding PTO, bonuses, etc
If you are a long term associate who dropped to part time because of job elimination and are later offered a full time position again do you go back to earning your PTO the old way? Having never left the company you would still be FT and 20+ years... — read more

Night Team lead
What happens to night team leader when we move to days
What if the block scheduling doesn’t work?
Do we go back to former scheduling practices or will they come up with another “brilliant” idea? Seems to me that there is a big chance that block scheduling does not prove to be effective like many other innovations that went down the drain before.
Back room associates
So anyone that has overnights on days now, what happened to back room associates?
