Re: Lowe's Invests In Employees & Has Lower Theft

Lowe's even pays their employees more than the other chains. All of this makes theft below the industry standard. Not in my recent research. For a Part Time Cashier in San Dimas, CA, Lowe's advertises $15.50 - $18.60 per hour . In nearby Glendora, CA, Home Depot offers $18.50 – $19.50 for the same ...

*** TESTERS NEEDED! ***

I've recently reviewed a few style and extension updates that will allow for a better user experience. My goal is to select a new default theme (the most recent one I added was incredibly buggy). The old "Flat Style" styles will continue to be available as an option in the future, and the ...

Re: Forum bugs thread

Not a bug per se, but I find the new design (animated board links) to perform rather slowly. I find it a bit hard on the eyes myself and not really a fan. 🙁 I wish there was an option to have a custom theme. I'm looking at options. I can install as many theme styles as I'd like, but the problem bec...

Re: Forum bugs thread

I've been monitoring things, and I agree the new theme is bug-ridden. I wanted a change, and on paper this one looked good. It is a 1.0 release though and I haven't seen a lot of interaction from the developer, so I'm looking at alternatives. In the meantime, you can change back to the old theme by ...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

I laugh that the plans call for splitting up the Albertsons banner... *again*. I'd argue that almost killed the brand from a customer favourability point of view... How can you set your expectations on a store which will vary wildly between operating companies? Especially when C&S has an extreme...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

Ever since this merger talk started my Pavilions has been almost Grand Opening every day. Understand that this store, previous to merger talks, was always in pretty fantastic shape (best in a 5+ mile radius). Also, there have been many "Suits" visiting the store since these merger talks. ...

Hmm... maybe if they hadn't neutered, then eliminated their rewards program... 🤔

Re: TransformCo (Sears/Kmart) Official Thread 2023: Finally the end?

I was in the Tukwila store earlier this month. I'd barely call it full-line. The third floor has been closed off for a while now. They had also closed off part of the second floor and there was little up there beyond mattresses and a light selection of tools. If they wanted to, they could seriously...
