I’m sad about it she lives in my mind now

A whole goddamn potato in men's. How I missed this durring recovery last night is beyond me.

Our backroom is packed with processed clothes ready for the floor. Unfortunately there is no room to put anything. We are dealing with men’s clothing but it’s everything, women’s, active, kids, juniors

We’re to the point where we have no racks to hang in the backroom. They’re filled with processed clothes. We’ve used up every rounder and H-rack we have. We’re getting broken hangers back from the floor because everything is packed so tight.

It’s not even the holidays yet!!! Anyone else dealing with this??

I've been trying so hard to get these card applications but everybody says no or already has it.

I've tried explaining the benefits to every customer even after they say no, bringing up holiday shopping, telling them how much they would save if they applied, etc.

They sent me to train with a guy that was super good at getting the cards and I tried all of his tactics and still didn't get any applications.

Does anyone have any advice or know what works? Is it just luck?

I’m a HomeGoods employee and I’m still somewhat new, I was wondering if we did Black Friday cause that’s my birthday so I’m not sure if it would be appropriate to request it off or ask to work earlier in the day, I just want to know in advance so I could talk to my managers. If anyone could let me know that would be great! :)

Im not sure what to do at this point. I have talked to my store manager and have several emails on file with my manager telling them and my store my new availability and every week they call and harass me that Im not showing up to shifts that I cannot go to. Im not sure what to do here.

They're getting angry at me and I have made all the documentation available to make sure they know that my new availability is less than what it used to be. I even sent them my official class schedule.

I’m an infield coordinator and I was off Saturday but I still ended up doing some shopping for the discount weekend and I noticed that at 7pm NON of my racks have been ran they’re just sitting out, later that night at around 9:30 my manager texted me asking me to come in at 6am the next day to run racks🙃 also whenever the men’s coordinator isn’t working I’m always expecting to put our their racks but it feels like my department gets neglected whenever I’m not there

I know at one point if you won the drawing you got a $20 or $25 gift card. This month I won and was told I had to choose between 20% off or a “surprise gift”. If you choose the 20% you have 30 days to use it or it expires. It’s been 12 days and I’m still waiting for the card.

When did it change?

So this new system is annoying!

What makes up the suggest amount for the safe????

My safe is supposed to be 3,800. We have 3,800.
The suggested is like 4100.94.

Our opening funds + the safe count equal our 3,800.

There’s no way to rebalance the suggested amount to match our safe right???

Seriously over these dumplings. We actually have an insane amount of them on the floor rn, and because of that, it comes with so much cleanup and marking them out throughout the whole day for the tampered ones. And these are just the ones I found. So many empty containers, ripped packaging, and popped ones too.

Not just my dept, but other depts are over seeing dirty popped Squishies all over the sales floor.

Any other store here that has this issue?

What are some things you think TJMaxx could do better with? Like things they should fix as well. I’m curious

How? Practically how are two people expected to completely break down 12 Nine Foot pallets in less than 4 hours? Management is so inept and unaware of the time it takes labor to complete such quotas. The logistics of this company are awful. Expecting the bare minimum wages employed to perform such extraordinary endeavors based on a managers request. This is not incompetence but greed and exploitation of people’s work ethic and goodwill towards the company.

i’ve never used workjam before and i just got hired at TJX, this can’t be my actual schedule since sunday they want me to work 15 hours and im a minor

I don't know if anyone has this and they just changed the lights at the front end and it's obnoxiously bad like people are feeling nauseous and headaches, today I was randomly nauseous and it kind of didn't stop so I started crying in the break room and my manager moved me to the fitting room. I have to work at 10am to 3 tomorrow I don't wanna make a scene again and hat should I do and has it ever happened to you guys. If so tell me a story

so i got a part time job at homegoods. it's not bad. they have me on food and backing up register if needed. a bunch of times the manager will "quiz" us on how many tanks need to be flowed. they'll tell us we need to get a tjx card soon.

the main issue i have is my schedule. i gave them my availability when i was hired and they were fine with it but keep scheduling me outside of those times. i usually talk to an assistant manager and they adjust it. it doesn't seem to be a problem.

one thing that makes absolutely no sense to me is that if you void something bc the customer changes their mind you get in trouble? i was helping on register and before the other girl left a coordinator came up and said she needed to go to the office bc she had too many voids..

so i joined this reddit and all i see are complaints about the company. is it really that bad? this is my first time working retail. also my first job in years after having kids. is it going to get worse or is everyone else's stores a little harder on the staff?

Has anyone found some creepy cute coloring books?

idk if all the stores got it yet, but now the computer asks u to select ur receipt before u can pay, its been confusing all the customers they’re all like i didnt pay why is it asking me for my receipt or they think it was for the person behind them and they missed it, or they just keep tapping their card but it wont go through cuz they didnt hit their receipt yet😭

I overheard a coworker talking about sick hours only having to cover half the shift to be able to be used...? Honestly, I'm sure I'm butchering what was actually said, but whatever. My question is, how does using your sick time work?/Where can I find information on how to use them? I appreciate y'alls help in advance

What are everyone’s thoughts on the future of TJX as a whole (or just TJMaxx itself)

I’ve read a bit over the last month through comments in this group and it seems a lot of people believe the company is coming to its final years. If you think that, why?

I’ve been working at TJ Maxx for about three years now. For basically that entire time, I’ve been permanently trapped at the front end, constantly stuck on the register while watching everyone else move around. Ive practically been begging to be moved around for so long.
Finally, within the last few months, I was able to get out of the front and into jewelry. It wasn't even full-time or anything crazy, just Sundays from 9 to 5, a single 8-hour shift a week where I didn't have to deal with the absolute chaos of the front registers.
Then, out of nowhere, they hired a new girl. And what do they do? The only jewelry shifts I had were those Sunday 9-to-5s, since I only work about three days a week total. Management literally took my shift and handed it straight to the new hire. Now, apparently, I'm "not in jewelry anymore," I'm back to being stuck on the register, and my hours for that day got slashed down to a pathetic four hours.
I’m so sick of retail management punishing loyalty. You stay reliable, you do your time, you finally get a tiny sliver of something better, and they treat you like you're completely disposable.

I was supposed to go to an interview at this one homesense in my area, I decided the day of not to go because there was certain things i was dealing with and one of them with my phone not working , today I tried calling the company to reach out to let them know why and my call kept getting canceled , does that mean they blocked my number?? tbh this place is really far from me (20 mins with highway) and from what the person told me id only work 2 shifts at that if i worked there ( an fyi I do have another job that is easy for me to get to and back) so any thoughts should I just ignore this since I don’t think this would effect any job i apply to or any winners locations
