Let's Unionize The MA Region.

Stay tuned for TM appreciation week

This year we got sunglasses that cost pennies and instead of double discount day, we got coupons for products that no one wanted and wf probably needed to get rid of. I wonder what kind of blessings our overlords will bestow upon us next year.

Move to Canada - it's better up here!

I can't believe the bitterness toward leadership I'm seeing here. I have a lot of respect for our STLs, ASTLs, and regional leadership. They're all hardworking, mature, decent people (who really do roll with the punches and lead by example). Things... — read more

Fewer hours for those who are left

In stores with least performance, full timers can expect to be cut to 30 hours, part timers down to 19. Check your status and be prepared to live on less. Remember that WFM accepts SNAP benefits.
