Anyone tried two step verification?

It sounds like an idea that could save some time, but the timing of roll out prior to Jan 2019 sounds foolish in my opinion. Interested to hear first hand experience.

What will sm pay change lead to?

I've heard numerous times that the company is looking to go to 1 sm for 2 stores in the future. Is the sm salary change the start of this? If sms are not on the demand of the store then it would make sense. Any thoughts or insider info?

Salary managers pay

Seems like SM pay schedule is changing. Now we will get paid on the 15th and last business day of each month. Down from 26 paychecks to 24 per year. Why would they do this? This takes place in February 2019.
