Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

It's just a job. Why you're taking it so personally?

It's just a job. Why you're taking it so personally? These customers, or members if you must, are shoppers, not our children, family, or friends, (well, not most of them.) They pay to shop here, so we kiss their butts a bit more than they do at other stores.

Don't get me wrong, I'm ok with all the smiling, being courteous, helpful, and going out of my way. I'm getting paid to do that, and that's fine, but I'm not going to sweat the changes the higher ups make. I'll follow the rules. I would prefer not to end up like the employees of Kmart, Sears, Big Bear, Harts, Lazarus, Woolworth or all the other places around here that closed down.

But if the higher ups make the wrong choices, and we close, it won't be the end of the world. I'll find another job. You're allowed to find another job. But for me, as long as they keep paying me and my safety isn't compromised, I'm good. If they get rid of my position, and I can find another in Club, even at a lower wage, I'm good.

Hey! You didn't write this. I did, sometime ago, for another thread that has nothing to do with this. Don't steal other people's words and pass them off as your own.

Same thing is happening at Costco. I align myself with those who are happy at work and been on the roller coaster and know it will eventually go up.

Koolaid drinker bja:

The definition retail: change to increase money hungry greed.

Definition of Walmart/Sam's club today: Profits over people...

They will lose in the endgame due to their misjudgement & mistreatment of people...

Just give it a little more time.

It is just a job. Contemplating what you can do to change policies it is a waste of time and gossiping. Go about it the correct way and use the open door. Go through the proper channels. They mayive you a different perspective of why.

If you can’t conform to changes you need to find another job. Sam’s is trying increase sales and compete against competition. Someone once told me the definition of retail is change.
