We had emergency inventory at 1 store in our district this week and every store manager was told that morning to find some to cover their shift and get over there. We have a 2 hour managers meeting Tuesday........

Is this just your store or is this something national that I will be getting a text or call about too?

Oh come on, it's going to be fun. The main point of the meeting is to explain that TPTB have placed our severance and bonus money in colorful eggs and then hidden them for us to find!

This upsets me. It shows how little they value the importance of family, especially since many of their employees are young and have little ones.
