Thread regarding Sears layoffs

Early Activation Saturday 7pm 11/25 for Sunday 11/26

Is this when the “Holiday Blast” starts?

Will the ad be set Saturday night?

I heard there is a large ad set Monday..is this true?

Is the Holiday Blast handwritten again?

[1oxz update] I stand corrected, apparently it really is tomorrow (Monday). And I guess this info on all this didn't really get around sufficient days in advance? Because my manager was not too pleased today with this nonsense when she was trying to explain it to us. Only two of us scheduled tomorrow morning... I wasn't one, but we've been invited to pick up a few extra hours if we'd like to come in and help with it for a bit.

I swear this company tries its hardest to complicate things more than need be.

@1qqg I don't want to but in your convo, but I was kind of pissed because my manager scheduled 2 people in the morning on Sunday. I was wtf were they suppose to do two early on Sunday and I am all alone on Monday morning to do the whole adset that was just some straight out BS (no adset on Sunday)...

My manager is just out of touch I told her and it didn't compute on her brain so I basically had to assign some task to keep the busy if not they would of come acting dumb (at least one).

@1zuh how on earth do they think only 2 if you can do a monster ad?

The two of you must be a good team together! Does the store manager help out too?

I set ads too but was not scheduled for late Saturday just my normal 4 hours on Sunday and Monday

I hope management appreciates you!

Our DM has the signing team and management coming in later Sunday at our Sears store to take down the Holiday Blowout signing and to set up the Holiday Blast signing. If we get done soon enough we can start setting up the big Monday ad. Yes, early activation was moved back one day to account for the Monday ad set. It was on Pebble late Friday night. We then come back early Monday morning and finish setting up whatever we did not finish setting up Sunday night for the big Monday ad. To add further insult to injury, due to severe cutbacks in staffing and hours there are only two of us on the signing team.

My understanding and I already got the signs their is no set up on Sunday (atleast in my department) and big set up on Monday for the whole holiday blast crap.

I haven't heard anything about anything activating... Though I'm one of the ones that handles the ads and I did not close tonight (Saturday) nor do I work Monday, but I'm in early Sunday for a long shift so I'm assuming whatever we're doing it's during the usual day and time.

@huy thank you for your response

There is no communication at my sears store about when all these sales start/end until that day.

Not everyone has time to be on pebble that doesn’t respond. I find I can get factual information here.

I was just wondering since there is a early activation sheet up on our snc cabinet and that’s about the only communication you get

Because Pebble won't respond. We tried. We have been asking the same thing in our Sears store. And yes, there is a BIG ad set Monday along with all the Holiday Blast signing setup and Holiday Blowout take down. It's going to be crazy.

Why aren't you using Pebble for this sort of BS?
