Several months ago i heard they where going to eliminate full time leads, but thought no friggin way. On Monday, I heard from a fellow employee he was laid off along with 2 others in our Kmart. I guess the rumor mill was truthful this time. It will be interesting considering they cut hours due to budget constraints, then complain things are not being done. You can not have it both ways, but that is something corporate does not understand. It will be interesting at work tomorrow.

In this area many of the full time positions were eliminated. Mine was one of them. Lost our office manager, HBA lead, Pantry lead and hard home/ soft home lead. Out of jobs because no positions were available.
I am afraid you are being led astray - my store has gained additional full-time personnel over the last year. If a store produces, it is well taken care of. The biggest problem we have is the lack of individuals wanting to work forty hours at minimum wage. Funny how no one is jumping at the bit for such an opportunity with a national unemployment rate still above 5%. One successful store will not save the company, however, with a $1.2 trillion debt payment due in April 2016...
