Impossible to fire

We have so many employees that barely do any work. We have people that purposely take 4 hrs to fold 1 hangfold and even when asked to be quicker and do more to help in WJM, they complain and every day seem more miserable. It’s been 2 years since they’ve been here.
Some other coworkers have no sense of what customer service personality means, they just stand there and check people out with a 😐😑🫩😑😐 face.
Yes, they’re all between 16-19.
But they can’t fire them, because apparently not being a team player, helpful for customers and actually hurting our survey scores, walking around with earbuds on, speaking on the phone loudly on the floor, clothes either ripped to pieces, bum hanging, cleavage out… is not a fireable cause.
Even when they get no credits, it’s not a firable cause. They just move them to the floor, then to Amazon, then to cleaning… until they quit.
Of course that if they never show up and the 12 points are up, or they steal, then that’s different. But I’m worried about performance issues that is actually harming the store…
I’m not gonna generalize because idk what’s happening in your stores, but IN MINE, it’s been like that.
Last person that I remember getting fired was about 2 years ago. And it was a performance issue.

Anyways, this is the end of my rant.

To the stores who are testers for the new Amazon procedure...

Please let us know how it goes. Our store is not a tester but we will be changing the Amazon procedure around week 3, I think.

We've talked about it, read the paperwork and will be training pretty soon.

But damned if it doesn't sound tedious and more time consuming. Especially for the Amazombies who have multiple returns.

Hopefully it won't be, BUT, it is Kohl's, sooooooo, yeah.

Corporate doesn't care how it affects us, the ones who have to deal with the entitled Amazombies as well as handling the extra workload that has nothing to do with Kohl's other than the "partnership" with Amazon.

Just curious and any tips u discover, plz share them so we can get prepared. Lol

TIA 😊

Will this get me fired?

Hey, so I checked out my mom at work. She used her own rewards and everything. I didn’t know we weren’t allowed to ring up family members until my coworker told right after we were done. Should I text my SM or just wait until my next shift?

Mixed Totes

Yo can we complain about this? Like a majority of our mixed totes - all the folds were unfolded and thrown in the box. That takes longer to process! Nevermind the 200+ totes we get
