I work PT at Michaels. It's a fun gig, and I get paid to help people buy glitter.

I believe that @GoldenTemple had the same thing happen last night. Odd.

I received just one GC, and Amazon/UPS are taking their sweet time to get that book here lol. EST arrival is still late may/early June.

Yup, same thing happened to me last night. She sent me another giftcard by mistake. I tried to get into contact with her but I didnt get anything back about what to do with the giftcard.

It would be hard not to spend all your paycheck I would think. I would buy too many art supplies.

Yeah $11 an hour plus benefits after I work there six months. (Or a year, I forget which.) Fiance's cousin works there and said they really need overnight stock people. :x I love sorting things, so maybe it won't be so bad.

edit: I'll still haunt the forum on my days/hours off, and turk on weekends. Gotta support my coloring book/pen/marker habit.

With the 30% discount on regular AND sales items, I usually limit myself to about 10% of my check, but after 6 years, I have a lot of supplies and don't buy as often.

I worked in the back for a while, and in lawn and garden. LOVED it! Once they moved me to be a front cashier I started dreading going in and quit shortly after. It genuinely makes me sad you're gonna leave us

Why can't this guy do all the SNIPS, @It's Gamera! ?

Because he's stuck in a Nightmarish Time-Loop of 1980s corporatism.

I would do something like that at the drop of a hat, but there are no jobs available around here. At all. I need to PM you with a question.
Thank you much for your reply

I started working at Walmart a month ago and I work nights. I love it. Getting away from turk is the best thing I did.

I think it would be a fun place to work. I like Michaels and Hobby Lobby. But Hobby Lobby is so big it is easier to shop at Michaels. Plus they usually have good coupons.
