Has anyone heard that if you work over your schedule you get a half of point and if you take a little longer on lunch you get a half of point too

There have been many posts here that say the PC and TC positions are being combined. We were not told that in our meeting. We were told there was "no information yet on the TC." (Ominous music) If the positions are being combined, it doesn't seem... — read more

Age is the fastest growing form of discrimination, and there is n o t h i n g to be done about it. Very hard to prove----and impossible to prevent, at least on the pre hiring end. 'Oh, we're not allowed to ask your age on the application'. Sure. They... — read more 

I have it under good authority that the President of Walmart, although well in his 50's, has made the decision to layoff Associates and Management that are over 39. Possibly, he thinks by laying off people over 39, will improve his efforts to catch... — read more 

Any word on Health and Wellness changes? Optical specifically???

Interesting info in this article. These bonuses are not bad for the ones that don’t call in sick every time we don’t feel well. For the ones that try to avoid work this way, don't think even money can be much of a motivation.

Though it is true that all companies are in business to make a profit, the manner in which they do business and how they treat their staff is not all the same. Compounding that is the fact that taxes on labor penalize hiring labor, which drives... — read more

Wondering how PTO and bonus works if you want to leave the company? Will I get paid out PTO? Or have the option to just basically take it then they fire me? Any answers will be helpful
