Thread regarding Sears layoffs

I recommend you dont bring your little smiley loss prevention as around here anymore or i will show you a burgerking. you think you all that, i got something for ya buddy

Burgerking's wife makes 120k plus his salary???? Talent right there. Enjoy the ruble buddy the bulldozers are coming and unemployement is calling.

@uix - Shoplifters are well aware of the Sears "no touch" policy for floor associates and managers. One time we had a person walk into our store, pick up an expensive tool set (which was spider wrapped) and then proceeded to leave. The floor associate ran up to the person and said, "Would you like for me to ring that up for you?" The person stopped, turned, looked at the associate, said "Nope" and walked right out the door.

man you really cut me down, your wife makes more than me...... you buy your whole family spalding shoes.... keep worshiping pebble and living sears life, I will be making something of my life. (I wear Nikes by the way)

you think you funny with burgerking, I bet you won't say that to my face, my wife makes 120k per year, I dont need your help, F u c You. no one liked you anyway, we cheered you leaving.

I used to be in AP, I had horse flies in my office and I was told, Its just that time of year, my camera system was from the 1970s and caught on fire a few times and had wires hanging everywhere and I was told by the camera tech that home office would not let them spend money to fix it because I was a seritage store and they would sell our store soon. I was given two part time AP positions at 15 hrs each and I could offer them a whopping 8 bucks per hr but they had to be top level talent willing to work all weekends and holidays. Then all my APAS were taken away and I was moved from salary to hourly and constantly asked to work off the clock. My tax status automatically got changed on my taxes without my approval to file me at single and zero when Im married with kids, I was told, it just resets sometimes when I called home office and was transferred to India. Good news is I spent all my time at work building my resume, applying to multiple jobs, calling old contacts, updating my linkedln page, etc.... I refused to give up and I refused to let Sears defeat me. I got out. I am now much happier, making more money with great benefits. Dont let Sears bring you down guys, sears going out of business doesn't have to be the end of the world. I forgot to mention when I finally got my new job offer, I put in my two week notice. My final check was supposed to be 80 hrs and they paid me 6 hrs, that was 4 months ago and they are still looking into it....

Why bother monitoring the stores? Shoplifters are still stealing. What can they do? Heck, what can WE do at the store? All we can do is sit on our thumbs and watch. Sears has a strict no touch policy unless you are a trained LP associate.

Guess what? Only a handful of Sears and Kmarts are allotted LP staff.

So, the stores are robbed blind. You know what, oh well. They don't care, I don't care.

The remote monitoring is just there to watch the employees. Never mind career shoplifters that are moving product out of the store faster than the time it would take to sell.

they are getting ready to remove all ap from stores and us home office ap for remote monitoring only

"Their most recent call was to thank us for having floor cones near the door."

LOL!! I really don't know what to say to that. Unbelievable. Wow. Nothing like big brother is watching.

That and...really....they need to pat people on the back for doing basic running of the store tasks, like putting up cones. WTF???? Is this a last ditch effort to begin to praise and appreciate employees to try to ease the pain of taking away their employee discount? They want to show they value the employees NOW with these atta boys because they can't show they value an employee with a simple benefit of 10% off or heaven forbid by giving them a holiday off.
