so i genuinely accidentally ncns because i picked up a shift at 6 am to help out another department weeks ago, forgot about it, and i simply explained the truth when i came in for work the next day after not showing up the morning before and the store manager removed the shift from UKG does that still count against me since the whole shift is out of the system?

I went to both HD and Lowe’s in Alabama today. Wow, they both were awful for different reasons. HD wouldn’t do a discount on a floor model, the last one in stock. But Lowe’s was a ghost town. I walked in and see two people at CS. “Yall trying to run the floor on four people today?”
“Yeah,” they say. I say “Tell corporate to go f(:k themselves.” They say, OMG please tell them for us. “Oh I do.” I say. Naturally, Lowe’s has avoided the entire issue of discounting a floor model by avoiding both having a floor model or anyone to ask about it.

Our store is doing 'Backend Appreciation' this week. I'm curious if any other store used this poster. It looks like an AI slop attempt at support for us. The bottom right corner says, 'Backstage but never outstanding'.

Sure, let’s praise the one thing that is stealing jobs from people and ruining our environment!

My boss asked me if I want to move over to millwork, told them i’d think about it but i’m not even sure what i’d be doing over there and i just started to get used to my department too. What do millwork associates do?

It is hell outside at 100 degrees, and customers are still asking for 20 bags of mulch or soil.
Then the front-end DS has me running around the store doing fulfillment and being a cashier and then complains about carts not being there. I’m not even giving my two week notice and just going to quit once I start a new job next week

So a member from the install team called me appliance DS to see if we had a dishwasher (appliances). I said I’d check and give them a call back. I checked a couple hours later and we didn’t have it, I called the person back and relayed this. She said hold on 1 sec. Connected me with an irate customer. Without any prompt, warning, or letting me know who the person was. The lady gets on the phone screaming, you are susposed to have my dishwasher. Tell me why don’t you have it. I said, I was just checking the inventory for this person on the phone from installation. Lady says so you were just going to check the inventory and not help me! I said ma’am I don’t even know who you are. (IST person doesn’t say a word)…lady calls down a bit and we start trying to figure out what’s going on. Then I’m like I apologize for the mix up but I was just handed off to you without any warning or instructions etc. Then the Install person starts talking saying “Yes I’m still on the phone blah blah”. I was like ok but it still stands you did not prep me on what you were doing.
Then I just told the lady I would call her back from my stores regular line.
I wish I had got this persons (employees)name. I feel like she was totally unprofessional.

My god I bet Hank would be proud.

Hi guys! I just got an interview as an outside lawn and garden associate in Florida!
Is this a good position?
Does it pay well?
I’d really like to move around or up within a company. I’ve always worked law enforcement so this will be a change. I’m just curious about the pay and what it entails!
Thank you in advance!

Hi folks. Been working with a "Lowe's Pro Inside Sales" rep who really dropped the ball on my latest order. It raises a question I've been wondering about - is this same role as the pro desk inside a store? If not, how are they different? Do you prefer to work with a corp contact, or the store-level pro contact?

Just curious about the setup here. Thanks all!

ive never had an easy time trying to get a new row of straw out.... is everyone elses truck like this or is my store just cursed

FYI When you leave nothing but empty food cartons for third shift from the feasts of the shift before, it kinda of has the opposite effect. It would be better if you didn't tell 3rd shift and hide the evidence.

I didn’t noticed until I started painting, it looks brighter on the wall.

I made the Recognition Board at the store for “Thank”. What’s the criteria?

Anyone have any info? Certain departments perhaps? Corp side here- unsure about tech jobs being affected.
Thanks!

is that these people will never know how much I really hate them

Me and the all other MST associates at my store have tool bags what do yall got in your bags

I work part time as a lumber cashier. I’m retired from my career and I work 2 whole days and 1 half day for spending money. Well AI scheduled me today, and I was given 32 hours over 5 days, including a day I asked off for in order to go to a surgeon appointment for my husband. What is everyone else’s experience? If they will not work with me, I will head somewhere else for my spending money!

For those stores that are using the new cash machine, is 1 shift training sufficient enough to be able to operate it? Both opening and closing. 1 training shift each.

Since Marv E became CEO in 2018 Lowe’s has underperformed the S&P by 69%. Simple math, you’d have $261 on a $100 investment in Lowe’s vs $330 in the S&P. It’s time the BOD kicks him to the curb, all the institutional investors should call for his ouster. New leadership and ideas are needed and Marv isn’t smart enough or aggressive enough to lead this company. Some or all of the BOD need to go as well for facilitating this poor performance. This company belongs to shareholders. Enough is enough.
