ROFLOA! Wow...this one is worthy of chuckle given all the angst, despair and despise shared here.
Though I will say the abrupt drop-off in posts and comments leads me to believe most of the buthurt folks or trolls have drifted away.
So what is it? Belk survives or perishes in the flames of so many other retailers?
Why hire going into the slowest time of the year? Can't they flex up the hours for existing staff? Guess not if some complain they have to work 6 or 7 days in a row since they can't read a schedule that starts and ends on a week's time of Sun-Sat. Or that so many are soooo stressed out by their jobs that they have become quivering jellyfish. No you still working have forced the comanpy's hand.
Yes retail work stinks! It stinks so bad it rates even below fast food. Fast food businesses that now pays wages of $13-15+ to start. So to complain about an industry that rates at the bottom of the barrel, about a company whose stores stink worse than the work climate. Tell us something we don't know.
So if you are in a store and can not get enough hours on which to survive, let alone a decent wage, respect, encouragement and leadership from above, stop complaining and get out cause Belk is hiring baby! Yes indeed hiring full and part time. Paying competitively. Offering flexible and accommodating schedules in a nurturing work environment too. You are replaceable and don't think you are not or are somehow that special to the firm.
As for the job ad and promises made...maybe some of you can join me as I ROFLOA!!!
