Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

PAPERLESS MY A$$

Paperless Backroom, what a joke! So you eliminate a few reports, you no longer have a UPS log or back door log. You have a "Miracle Box" (Cuz it'll be an f-ing MIRACLE that you'll be able to find anything) to put your "paperless" receipts in. So now we're going to have a crap load of Miracle boxes in place of all the filing cabinets we had to get rid of! Since we started going "paperless" it looks like we'll be having one box for every 2 weeks! So in a year, we'll have 26 boxes. Good thing we got rid of the filing cabinets!

I wonder if anyone has done the math to see if the labor savings offsets the shrink increases?

Oh wait. They probably don’t know how much shrink they actually have because the answers can’t be found in the miracle box....

The miracle will be if Sam’s can figure out how much shrink they have in about a year or so.

I’ve heard crazy shrink numbers in some clubs recently.

I LOVE my miracle box!!!! Home office emailed me asking me to research something. I responded, I no longer have an organized office. We live out of a box and I am not researching every box to find what you need. Charge us back! What the company wants, the company gets! That box is a miracle!!! And just as the lame video stated, I am no longer overwhelmed with all that filing lmao!!!

Probably very true and everyone knows the Company monitors this site!! That said who really cares , point is the Jike is on the Associates. It just goes on and on. The Company does not respect its workforce , it placates hourly Associates and treats them like they are imbiciles. However, I can assure you , they Market Managers and Above treat Managers 10x worse . They are just a disrespectful unprofessional lot , some unfortunately and they are few, are decent . The rest unqualified, unprofessional and totally ineffective and useless to the Club Manager and his / her Team. Core Leadership Gisele more to the point John , they will not survive the wreckage they have created here. Someone will bail them out. I will leave that judgement to others , not into trashing anyone. The results are obvious and catastrophic for the Company. You do not have to be s Harvard Business Grad to see that. It is going to end very badly. Ask anyone left there. Those left behind will soon envy those who moved on! Believe that fact!

Well, a while back people were able to get useful information and a lot of it was correct. Now people are just getting on here making things up and trying to start

S**t. Calling each other names for no reason. Etc., etc., etc.

You're right it is a big joke but the joke is on all the associates. Don't think for a second there aren't higher ups on here seeing what everyone is saying. Probably laughing at us while they're sticking a knife in our back.

It is obviously time to send in the Clowns😊

Pitiful Yes Men/ Women who have Zero Courage to speak out , while they knowingly watch , as current Leadership is leading Sam’s Club off a Bridge!! Every Retail outfit knows it and is laughing at us. BJ’s and Costco are simply waiting for the total Capitulation of the East and West Coasts , then the rest will be cleaned up and sold off. BJ’s , and Costco ARE just Crushing Sam’s in the Northeast and Mid Atlantic through Florida.... No Spin all true!

Their only strength is South / Some of the Mid West . Hey are you guys looking at Sales!! Profits??? On the West Coast Costco and Grocery Chains are killing Sam’s. No bias , just the truth. Leadership is Clueless and it is apparent. Proof is in the pudding. Get ready Market Managers your report card is coming! Will you make the cut in six months , or last until Jan. The same folks you treated so disrespectfully will be out there when you start scrambling all looking for new Careers. You will have no place to go! Get ready for your backdoor visits they are coming.. BTW some of those folks you simply totally will be helping to put the nails in the Company’s Coffin. They will also be in the organizations , or making decisions they will be the door YOU ALL will be needing to pass through as you try to find employment.

Trust and Believe they and God himself will not forget you...

You will know what the third rung of Hates feels like!!

Paperless could be so much better. Why even have anything print up if we're going paperless? That should all be able to be pulled up in the computer, there's no need for anything to actually print. Don't make copies, just scan them to a file, done. But they have some bizarre "paperless" system that uses just as much paper as ever.

The video for paperless receiving was comedy. That overweight lady had no clue what she was taking about on any of it.

They continue to eliminate shrink reducing practices and then want answers when it balloons 4x what it used to be and the sales don’t adjust to compensate.

John and Giselle won’t be around to see this blow up in the company’s face.

No researching here! Get an email from home office, just ignore it for the 48hrs. Per the video, those emails are few and far between (correct). However, they are usually over 2k a piece. Chump change in the grand scheme of things.

Let it gooooo, Let it Goooooooo!

It's the standard record retention file box. No real miracles here.

Yeah & the sh!t show begins!!! It just proves that they (HO & management) don't know WHAT we do & WHY we do it! Why is it the ones changing the rules know nothing of what we do on a daily basis? Biggest joke ever! Yeah, forget the researching... I'll just point to the Miracle Box - have at it! Knock yourself out!

I had to go drop that stupid miracle box out of the steel three times to find receivers for vendors, I'm done with that. If they don't care about the ridiculous decisions they are making I guess I will quit caring!

Yes, one of the stupidest things they ever did. So they think filing took 90% of our time? This is beyond ridiculous. Same with audit. Our audit team lost their position but they are still doing the same jib for a lot less pay. I encourage everyone to email the National Labor Board. This is just wrong.

No one at home office has a clue. They are so far removed from how a club runs.

You're right, definitely not paperless. About 10 minutes of filing alleviated but the miracle box is causing delays when researching issues, not paperless but organizedless.
