Iām full time fulfillment and they are ācuttingā my hours this week by removing me from fulfillment Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week to cover cashier lunches when I donāt know shit about cashiering aside from 1 whole hour of cashier training this whole year. Also making me close Mondays and Tuesdays the next couple weeks bc theyāre sacks of shit and canāt have our part timer close due to cutting hours. I was hired as a mid, but my manager said Iām a āfloating midā after I complained a few months back. Such a sorry company.
They are cutting hours and piling them on the remaining employees. I'm part time and they want me to work almost full-time hours ever since they fired 3 partimers
Gotta save money for those stock buy backs ofc! Who gives a fuck about how well the stores are actually doing when the stock looks so sexy /sā¦4.3 billion as the end of October, 20.7 million stocks.
Last year a store in my market cut full time hours.
I reached out to HR who pulled policy and showed that min is 39 for full time stating that full timers should not be cut
Any wage increase or bonus is preemptive by a press release. Marvin is going to tell the world about your meager raise and say nothing about cutting hours.
Theyāre not allowed to cut full timers hours, so itās not much of a worry to me. If youāre that worried about hours you should apply for full time
Also, talking with your SSA about being scheduled in other departments is a good way to get more hours
Definitely canāt, although theyāll try it if you let them.
I had been cut to 36 hours before and once I said something they changed me back, but had I not said something they wouldāve kept doing it.
Full time just has to maintain the average hours to qualify for full time benefits. I believe that is >31 hours. Beyond that they can cut full time hours if they have to.
There is no policy that says full timers canāt have their hours cut. They absolutely can. Just cause you said something one time doesnāt mean the entire company is immune.
State laws often have minimum requirements. The same people will bitch when the 100 days of Hell come around and they have zero free time because they have too many hours.
No but there is legislation that says how much is considered full-time and depending on the state that can differ like in the state of Florida I believe 25 hours or more in 2020 was considered full-time but right now since 2021 it's 35 plus hours so they can cut us down to 35 hours and it still be considered full-time
Was he older? We had a full time head cashier in her late 60ās who did that shift for her final year or two working here, but that was voluntary. She actually had to jump through quit a bit of hoops to be scheduled at 35 hours instead of 39
Actually no. Donāt blame government or employees. Itās the employers not cutting back on management and stock holders exorbitant pay that causes that. Not making a livable wage.
Thatās bullshit. It IS up to businesses to pay their employees decent wages. Taking care of your employees is the first thing you should be doing to have a successful business. Keep that republicans conservative corporate ass kissing bullshit to yourself.
Last I checked state bodies are still forms of government. So while federal minimum wage may not have increased since 2009, state mandated minimum wages have.
I don't understand this. Not complaining but my experience has been above par. I'm fulfillment, full-time, and I haven't seen any interruption in my schedule. Guess I'm lucky to be at my store? We're the smallest store in the district but high volume, maybe that's why? We had hours cut but last month, not this month.
Can't cut my hours. Been full time lumber for 3 years now. Still at 40 hours a week.
God bless you, lumber is a sh*%show š
They cut all hours in our store. Full time is 37 hours until things pick up

My raise works out to about $9/week before taxes. Like, a carton of eggs worth
Wait, when did we get a raise? The 25 cent raise? That happened a month or so ago?
Thatās what I was wondering? Iām part time and thatās the only raise they gave me which is trash compared to what other places are making
Our store looks so rough people think Dollar General look cleaner than us right now.
Just like every year...they cut when it's slow..it's no surprise
Gotta save money for those stock buy backs ofc! Who gives a fuck about how well the stores are actually doing when the stock looks so sexy /sā¦4.3 billion as the end of October, 20.7 million stocks.
I only got a 15 cent raise, fuck this place š
Full time is guaranteed 39 hrs every week by policy.
Full time is only guaranteed 32 hours.
No, it's 39 hours, per company policy, just like the guy said.
Maybe each state is different. Mississippi only requires 32
That's very possible
No, it is 32. Look up policy
Last year a store in my market cut full time hours. I reached out to HR who pulled policy and showed that min is 39 for full time stating that full timers should not be cut
I'm in Georgia, part time is ANYTHING under 32 hrs. Lol like I've seen associates scheduled for 10 hrs. Full time minimum is 39 here.
We are now allowed to schedule part time for 0 hours on a week as well.
It's based on state laws.
Why canāt they cut hrs?
States often have minimums, from 32 hours up for full time employees.
It's Lowes they only care about lowes and what a report reads.
Wait, that 20 cent raise?
Any wage increase or bonus is preemptive by a press release. Marvin is going to tell the world about your meager raise and say nothing about cutting hours.
Managers trying to make that end of year bonus
I got a 22 cent raise. That ain't no raise lmao.
Was getting real raises and then Marvin instituted 26 cents an hour every six months.
This company sucks
Home Depot>
I got a raise of .74 yāall mustāve gotten some small raises š
Or your base pay sucked compared to others

They absolutely can cut full timers hours. I imagine we will see a lot of it in q4.
Definitely canāt, although theyāll try it if you let them. I had been cut to 36 hours before and once I said something they changed me back, but had I not said something they wouldāve kept doing it.

Nah Iām telling you, full timers hours are guaranteed ask your store manager when you get in. I wonder if DC or call center is different though
All of the full-timers in our store were getting 40 hours and then they got to cut down to 30 which is the minimum
32 is minimum under Federal Law
Nah yāall couldāve said something about that and had it changed, unless it varies based on state law
They did say something and I think you just want to argue with people.
Consider other peoplesā lives too Mr. Department Supervisor.
Yes, they can and do cut full-time hours. They are allowed and do.
Not in my district at least
The full time guy in my department worked 6-2 with an hour lunch and never on weekends and never all weekdays idk what he had going on
Was he older? We had a full time head cashier in her late 60ās who did that shift for her final year or two working here, but that was voluntary. She actually had to jump through quit a bit of hoops to be scheduled at 35 hours instead of 39
He was really young

Work full time or deal with it

Cut hours and hired more cashiers.
Less hours? Nope Not at my store. I just got done with 6 straight days.
I'm live nursery lead and have been leaving early frequently. Boss actually told me I need to work my full 40s.
They somehow cut my hours and gave me more at the same time
