Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

Was laid off in 2015 with 2300 other managers

February 25, 2015. Manager meeting at 2pm. I was overnight manager for 2 years. Fresh for 6 years.

We were all joking before the meeting figuring that someone was getting axed. “I hoped it’s me “ we said laughing.

Well I was the first to get called into the office. It was me.

First shock listening to my Club Manager read the statement.

Then I cried. He cried and the APM manager cried.

I took the serverance pkg and unemployment as my father fell very ill during this.

This was what was meant to be. The next 6 months was spent taking my mother back and forth to the hospital. My father pulled through and I found a job with another coming making close to the same pay.

There is life after Sam’s.

This is so true they have put you all through Hell. Remember this you will go on and have an even better life and career. More importantly your family will be your rock and you theirs. Remember it was nothing you did but gave your all to a company who in return didn’t give a sh--. Take this time spend it with your family refocus on what’s really important.
