For anyone reading this if you get hired in plumbing AND OR ELECTRICAL. Leave. Dont loose an ounce of sleep. I would rather work a double at fucking McDonald’s than do this shit anymore. Plumbing is the biggest department in the store, has the most returns, and the most traffic. Yet we get the least amount of hours and still expected to go “above and beyond” for less pay than half the store. If you are in electrical you will also get scheduled in plumbing but plumbing almost never get scheduled in electrical. Electrical will sometimes be vacant and you are expected in plumbing to handle both. (2 largest departments in the store). Oh and dont get me started on when you are going through something in life. LOWES DOES NOT GIVE A FUCK. Late due to something you had no control over. Tough shit!! Late bc a customer asked you for help in the parking lot, tough shit, called out bc ur on your deathbed, next day you come in youre getting looked at like you fucked the store managers wife. I hate this fucking job and am putting in my 2 weeks after almost 2 years of this shit. Never do more than you are asked if you have no other choice bc they will dog you out faster than you can say 123 LOWES!!!

Need help, i am a newer tech and i am at a tier 4 store where we have terrible staffing to the point where I often close the front and drive thru by myself for 5 hours or more. Cenfill has been taking alot of the prescriptions to help us out i guess but the costumers DONT CARE. Like what is the point if i have to pull every cenfill back. Like what do yall tell customers to make them understand they can wait another 12 hours it will be here in the morning 😭.

I know this may be harsh but i feel that busy stores such as mine should be able to decide the rules on drive thru. I feel that if it is not a in and out thing you need to come inside, i am tired of one person taking 15 mins and messing up the flow of the line. Now the entire line for the next hour is pissed off at me. And then i feel if the drive through line is long, one person per car unless they are there. No “im picking up for 5 people” and 3 of them have insurance issues. If you are picking up for anyone but yourself come inside. 5 people and i take 5 mins looking for one person bc its over 8 days old and i cant find it in the mound of 50’s. Now the drive thru is in the street and inside is to the makeup department.
