I was telling my husband about the push to get the 5 3 2 1 training done and the 2017 compliance training started. I've always prided myself on being 100%.
He remarked the maybe being the Most Well Trained Sears Employee won't be something to brag about in a few months.
Oh please! Walk because you were asked to do your job. Don't act like you are the first person to work retail and be required to sign people up for credit or some other program. The TV station? What will you say. I work retail and my boss said I have to get credit card sign ups? Big deal, I think there are bigger problems going on to report on. Get a grip, go to work and do your job until you are told otherwise
The 2% at Sears and Kmart is in addition to base points (1%) and any bonus points offers or coupons.
5%, 3% to shop at other places but only 2% to shop at sears/kmart. jUst shows how much they have confidence in people shopping at Sears/kmart. What happens when the company goes bankrupt? Do the points stay or do they go away? That has been the question to most of the people I have tried to sign up. What happens when you go out of business or are you closing your store? Stupid, unethical, and just wrong program. JUst a way to get personal information to sell or to get money from the credit card company to keep this thing going longer. Everyone in our store refuses to ask if they want to sign up and we told our manager if he makes us we will walk and call the local T.V. station. Don't mess with us.
Correction: it's supposed to say fallen not fought! Apparently my phone loves the auto correct on me.
@LBswAQ0-ncz Apparently it's not just the customers that are losing confidence in the entire company as a whole, but apparently investors too! As of 12:30 PM on January 30, 2017, the stock value has fought to $6.36!!
They want us selling the cards as competitive to other credit offers, but most let you use the cash back for something useful like a credit on their bill or miles to use to fly with. I am in a Sears Tool Department and yesterday I had three people asking me when we are having a clearance sale to sell of all tools since the craftsman brand was bought Stanley black and decker. The general public seems to loosing confidence in Sears.
The training is useless anyway and once you are done all of them, you repeat them 6 months later, it's a total waste of time.
Why are they paying employees to sit in front of the computer to complete training when it really doesn't matter anymore?
Yeah, they sure are pushing it hard. Maybe Segno is going away too.
Probably can't afford to renew the desktop licenses.
