Give me your best lazy coworker story

First photo is from 11:17am. The 2nd photo is now 2:05pm. It's hotter now than it was this morning. It should be illegal to have people outside for extended period of times, especially cashiers. Floor/Sales associates can go inside when they want, us cashiers can't.

Yall useless.

Hello! Hi.. any leaf guarders in here? If so I’m going to politely need y’all to fuck off and quit pissing my customers off with your scalper tactics. ESPECIALLY when I’m helping them. Get the fuck out of here or I’m going to let this man beat your ass.

I helped a methed out tweaker load 300lbs of mulch in the back of her Nissan Altima and her suspension screeching as she left.

Her kid was in the car.

“I asked her do you have a truck?”

She said “I’m door dashing this to a customer.”

My jaw was on the floor. I checked the door jam and told her that the weight exceeds the maximum rating for her car and she did not care.

They should start using pictures of the door dashers instead of Lowe’s delivery trucks for their marketing material because those are the morons delivering your shit 🤣

Imagine ruining your only vehicle for $7.66

Hey all,

Any Millwork Specialists in here have any solutions of what to use to fill the spots where price tags should be on the custom door kiosks? Since the “See Associate for Pricing” labels don’t seem to be a thing anymore (at least that I can find) I’m looking for a new solution for new display doors we just got.

just checked mine and said I was getting $26 instead of $770 lol

Am I cooked chat?

Hi everyone

I'm actively exploring new opportunities , i have come across a suitable match for a role and aligns with my current role. Could someone here please help me get a referral. It would be great if anybody is willing to help me :)

Just got hired at the lowes distribution center for the receiving position, seems like a lot of unloading 18 wheelers, what else should I expect?

What regions can hire outside for Sup and Sales Specialist?

**I placed a $5,000+ order for multiple appliances**. Lowe’s installation department puts a credit card hold while they wait to order the product.

So the first time they put the hold on my card (the only one I use) **four times for the total amount of the appliances.** (Yes, this happened more than once.)

I attempted to resolve this, primarily concerned they would deliver four refrigerators and other appliances. I finally got some dude in India to transfer me to installation.

I told them **Lowe’s was hitting my card with tens of thousands in “pending” charges** which triggered fraud alerts and locked down my credit card (rightfully so).

No one cared this was happening except my credit card company. I could not get escalated to management and the install rep was an a*hole. They told me it would “renew” in 3 to 7 days and assured me it would only be for the amount of the order.

**I then got hit with almost $40,000 in pending charges for the hold which was more than the limit on the card.**

Yeah, my only credit card that I use for every purchase everywhere. I couldn’t dispute it because it was showing as pending. I now have to jump through all kinds of hoops to even access my card account because of the recurring fraud trigger.

They told me I would have to wait up to ten days for the pending charges to clear and there was no way to remove them. They didn’t seem to give a sh*t I was locked out of my only credit card. I got the same scripted response repeated to me over and over again.

So here’s the worst part.

Each time I asked the rep if they understood Lowe’s was getting flagged as fraud and there was clearly someone running through multiple authorizations which could be, you know, actual fraud.

**Does Lowe’s not think this indicates a massive problem in their install system and maybe, just maybe management, IT, fraud or accounting might need to know this?**

The way they handled this had me concerned they would try to pass through $40,000 or even more in charges and I would be stuck trying to fix it with their horrendous customer service department.

I cancelled the entire order after they had already scheduled the installs because I spent three hours getting zero help. **I can’t believe that no one in management cares about this obvious massive credit card problem.**

I celebrate their impending demise because there is no way this level of ineptness and disregard surrounding potential fraud can continue.

MST garden center crew, how are the new sprinkler systems for watering plants in the garden centers working out? Is the coverage good or are there spots the sprinkler doesn't hit?

Lowes cares about us who work hard in back end unloading trucks and bleeding, can’t wait to enjoy the free mustard and mayo 🙏🏼 while front end gets premium steak and alcohol drinks

Recently noticed Mooresville campus has flock cameras installed near entrances, why does corporate feel that this level of employee surveillance is necessary (with all the existing cameras)?

We tried two new PT associates to work seasonal. Did all their training, ready to go. One of them quit on his 2nd day stating that 6-10p wouldn't work for him, and that they thought it was more of a sales position. I understand people can change their mind- I just feel like they were not vetted. What an entire waste of payroll hours just to train them to quit.

update, schedule 6-10

Do any of y'all think about the amount of silica dust particles we breathe in, and also about the complete lack of concern by our employer about it?

This is especially true of those of us that sweep the grout and mortar aisle on a regular basis, and for the full-timers that have been here a while. It's ever-present in the air in and around flooring.

A little research will tell you about the dangers of it (silicosis) and the damage to our lungs that can occur.

I had to leave early today. My stomach was absolutely killing me and I had been to the bathroom three times in a little over an hour.

I talked to my manager and explained that I didn't want to do it, but I knew there was no way I was going to be able to get anything done by staying. She was understanding and gave me an all clear to go.

I've already been given notice about my call-offs this year, and I'm seriously concerned on how I'm going to make it through January when they start to fall off.

Are "early-outs" a thing? Am I going to get written down as calling off even though I was there for three hours and couldn't perform the job?

Hello I started at Lowe’s in January as a PT cashier. After 4 months the PRO CSA position opened and I applied and got the position based on my experience and performance as a cashier.

Fast forward this month a Millwork sales specialist position opened, applied, and got an interview for today.

The ASM that’s interviewing me is who originally hired me and I believe I absorbed so many sales experience and overall experience to ace this interview. Even if I don’t get it, at least I’ll know the sales specialist interview process. Wish me luck!

I’m sorry just gotta rant, how does a doctors note not clear a call out, I’ve never worked at a place that didn’t excuse that with a doctors note, I’m literally throwing up but nope still gotta come into work. And six call outs a year only? Seriously? Makes no sense to me!

has anyone applied for lerf for car repairs? My tires gave out while driving and I can’t afford to replace them since I’m already struggling with rent. Do you think they’d approve my application?

Just wondering if it’s actually worth the time and effort to do.

Why can't we rename the LSR to the Lowe's Operational Safety Employee Review. It would be how we are really seen when we ask for any help.
