General Managers stepping down or leaving company?

Do they actually want us to feel miserable?
I think they really do want the employees to feel miserable. All the exaggerated criticism from the manager, all the humiliation and underpaid work, it serves them to make us feel like we don't deserve anything more. My colleague thought for a... — read more

CPU $16 an hour?? (TL raise??)
Was informed that club pickup is starting out at $16 an hour. Seems like the team leads at $18 may need a raise to compete. If someone can go down a level and still make close to the same amount of money then why not especially if it helps tone... — read more
