Topics regarding layoffs at Sam's Club

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.

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.
