Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

“I forgot to be 10 people today”

When is every dept not short staffed. We are never staffed. We are most often so understaffed we can barely operate in pretty much every single dept. The turn over rate is beyond anything I could ever even imagine at a business. We are never hiring. Ever. From club management to the top, I’ve never seen a company like this before. Never been treated like this before. I am an expert muti-tasker. I actually thrive on it. I have never hit my limits. Here, I am constantly at or exceeding my limits. Then after the world has burned down around me .. I hear .. oh .. you should have told me you needed help.... Ummm do you not listen to the radio??? Did you not hear the endless bombs going off being called out by myself and everyone while you sat in the office, kicked back and chatting ?? Clearly not. I forgot, it’s my fault, I forgot to be 10 people today. Are you going to fire me this time or is that tomorrow???

This is the best illustration of the situation I find myself in every day. I just wonder, how much is all this trouble worth it?

Why be 10 when you can be 11?

If you can’t look at all the posts and see how pathetic of a place Sam’s club has turned into then you must be one of the newbies!
I, on the other hand quit working there after 27 years of their stupidity! Worked all areas of the club and like many have mentioned throughout this site too many jobs put on one person and not enough help ever due to management not dealing with the call ins and with Covid abuse on top of that most associates can relate to what a hot mess this place has turned into! Also part times now can’t work over 20 hours! Lol
I hate that I wasted so much of my life working for such a pathetic excuse for a company!
It’s really sad to think the company I was once so proud to work for has turned into just another c-appy place to work!

Really?? Cause a lot of people from various clubs here have reported the same issues. And I wasn't referring to firings. I was referring to people who are fed up and quitting. Fed up being over worked and treated like c-ap. Congrats on your fantastic management team and your obvious "better than the rest" job performance. But it is not like that at a lot of clubs. Management and corp are the biggest issue. There are a lot of fantastic people at my club from associates to team leads to the few great AMs we had who had enough and stepped down or quit for another job. It has nothing to do with them not being qualified. Over-qualified is closer to the actual reality. And worth more than they are being treated like. And if you read more posts you would see that it is quite the pandemic as mentioned and not a singular occurance. But yea.. thanks for your brainy input. Come again.

Yep associates at clubs around the country are coping fine. Have y'all maybe considered that your not qualified for the job?
