Prior to our current union contract we use to get OT for working over 8 hrs/day. Now it's over 40 hrs/wk. Macy's reasoning was that some associates were working a few hrs OT the first 3 or 4 days of the week and calling out the fifth day since they had already accumulated the equivalent of 40 hrs with the OT. There is no Grandfather option for us.

Let me say this about target discount it was only 10 percent..but you could use coupons..But Target associates sure enjoyed Marshall Fields much better because it was a bigger discount..rofl..

I remember the big sign at Target.... Employees receive: Merchandise Discount at Target & Mervyns, and a Generous discount at Marshall Fields. Remember though, in this area no body knows what Mervyns or Marshall Fields are in this area.

Did you not read the post by Maycylady saying it wasn't too long ago that all of us were going through cuts, changes etc?? We had much more than 400 cuts in my division alone. It has been 2 years since our takeover and many of us still expect the axe everyday. people in my store were getting pink slips last week! We are here to support each other, not criticize. Why don't you start a S&B forum?
