Thread regarding Lowe's Cos. layoffs

Pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures…

I work in district 1282 and all I do is get ready for pictures for the 1mbec1les in upper management. It’s all that matters. They don’t give a g0d d@mn about the middle of the store that’s filthy, under staffed and disorganized, they only care about uploading sh1tloads of pictures from lumber and garden each night. And I don’t even work in those areas! I’m actually spending more of my day in departments I don’t work in because all that matters is the dirt in garden and PT boards in lumber.

Im actually trying an experiment. I haven’t down stocked my department in two weeks. It’s a total sh1tshow right now but no one in management has noticed. I’m faking the IRPs and Downstocking each day but since the management never pays any attention to my department, no one has noticed. You should see it. I’ve never seen the department looking so bad. But since most of the time Im being sent to lumber or garden “to get the department ready for the nightly pictures” it’s only going to get worse and I couldn’t care less.

You might think that with our store being down so much this year, they would care more about sales but you’re wrong. It’s just pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures….

Each day you should send pictures of all the dogs that were walked in the store.

It’s all just a SHOW! What Fake pics can we post on LinkedIn next. Management isn’t the least concerned with operating a business. It’s all Smoke & Mirrors!

This is simple. Melvin, Small Hands, and Wi--y Sears all got where they are by politics, bullshating, and kissing A. Retail ability and Home Improvement knowledge has zero to do with it. Hence, they now expect the slaves that work under them to do the same. It is ALL THEY KNOW HOW TO DO. One of the best ways to kiss A is to upload the pictures of one aisle of the store that has been worked on for 2 days while the rest of the store sits in a cesspool of excr-ment. Now that Covid is truly over, these incompetent buffoons are going to be exposed for what they really are. Get ready for a 2 year hard ride until they are replaced by the next set of id--ts.

TPS reports people. Its meaningless garbage all to ki-l your soul. Just refuse their orders. Do not comply. Hide in the stall. Sleep in your car. Take the ballymore to the top rack and nap in the bay. Its gonna be allllllllllriiiiiiiiight.

Reality: Blowes doesn't pay anyone (except Marvin and Small Hands Joe) like rock stars. What they pay is more like an Arlo Guthrie cover act playing at the local dive bar on open mic night

I would trade Marv for Niblock and throw in three first round picks in upcoming drafts with two executives to be named later. AND... I hate Niblock with all the fiber on my being.

Pictures, pictures, pictures. It sounds annoying and pointless. Only the order is being communicated, and not the reason. That's unfortunate.

I don't know what the reason is, but here's my guess - your district is a pilot test for some sort of machine learning program for inventory management, and your pictures provide the data necessary to train an object recognition algorithm. Each picture provides a data points to train or test a statistical model for object recognition accuracy. Once built, tested, and validated, someone won't have to physically lift and count boards or plants. Instead, they'll take a picture and the computer will recognize all the object edges and count for you. That's my guess for why they are asking for them, but I could be wrong.

Totally Agree- Management cares more about their stupid LinkedIn posts than actually taking care of customers. I cannot tell you how many times they all stand around with their stupid thumbs up in the air for a picture all while customers are searching for help. Go look at their posts- "Amazing rockstars!" Baloney- rock stars party like frat boys..

Did I mention that the district managers came to my store recently? Even they didn’t notice my department because they never WENT to my department!!! LMAO! These people are whole box full of clowns. They spent 99% of their time in f*cking garden and the offices. They didn’t even look in my direction. 🤣 The piles of dirt are spotless but my whole department is down in sales and filthy. Hmmm, you’d think no one was down stocking it anymore! 😈

Image over substance is what Melvin and the Melvettes seem to want.
Even Niblock - Damron and crew were better.
