Sorry for such a late "CONGRATULATIONS" on your new position, Andy. I just discovered this website. I use to get this info via snail mail. Major cutbacks, I know. Been with this company throughout all the changes for 20 years. Can you believe when I actually started with this company I had to literally write all the displays on paper?! Hope to the High Almighty you change the the pay rate schedule. Most of my stores I get the minimum wage....work 5 hours but get paid fo4 2 hours because of scan rate. Most I love about the job is working my own time schedule but lately that has charged because when a hire quits, it's added to my schedule
