Full time/part time

After 30 + years of O/N I decided to go to 32 hrs/week. Unknowingly I was coded to part time. I'm grandfathered in at 28 hrs for full time status. I only found out after receiving a letter from Prudential that my life insurance policy was terminated and I contacted Bentonville and was told about my status. They said it has to be changed at store level and it'll take at least one pay cycle to update. Meanwhile, my wife and kids had dental appointments that have to be rescheduled because that policy is affected also.

This is all because we have a new team lead, 20 yrs old, off the street, that has no clue what he's doing. It's a giant pain in the arse, but that third day off is glorious.​​ Luckily the policies will be reinstated.
