    “The other factor is those 214,000 employees don’t all work full time. A high percentage are part time.”

    That’s the Gotcha, most of these employees are part time, it scheduled to be just under full time so they won’t qualify for any benefits.

    I’ve been management at places that have required me to schedule people at 27.5 hours or 31.5 hours. This was mall retail in the aughts, so things may have changed, but they’ve probably only gotten worse.

    Corporate would rather have a bunch of part timers that have to be constantly replaced than a solid team of full timers that actually want to grow with the company.

    Once again, I haven’t had to hire or write a schedule in over a decade, so let me know if I am wrong.





  • My mother’s house had one of these pleasant looking Razor Disposal Slots in a medicine cabinet. When we redid the bathroom there was just a pile of ancient rusty razor blades behind the wall.

    Boomer era foresight. They probably dumped their used engine oil into holes in the back garden as well.
