Last week for PTCs
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

Sam's will never learn... And it starts at the top
It's funny how Costco holds a higher standard, and sticks to it and has the better reputation. Sam's is all about not caring about the rules or associates. It's about money money money. Get rid of this position and don't hire as many people. No more... — 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?
Is this true?
The protected PTO is so much better than the old attendance policy. You can use it for whatever reason you could be late 100 times this year and still not get one point in the new attendance policy because of the protected PTO. You need to read all... — read more
