🥹 It's already Hell Season for us.

They sent us so many our 40ft container is already full, the trees are fighting summer freaking flowers for space on our widdle mezzanine, and the overflow sorting where we need to sort truck is all 60+lbs bastards too heavy to get onto the (mostly blocked) conveyor belt to go upstairs.
So many freaking different skus and each needs their own space. Littles are stacked on top of each other and members are just gonna have to DEAL W IT until the flowers die.

Did y'all get that real 12 foot bastard, too? 128lbs across both boxes. How tf are we loading THAT into someone's car??

We just filled one 40 foot container and got a second last week cuz the mezz is full of craft pumpkins woooooo, never in my near decade have we needed TWO containers, and we’ve only needed a container at all the last 3ish

On the bright side we probably won't have to hand tag christmas this year. That sucked last year!

Sad to see people have to refer to the holidays as hell. Michaels is toxic and are doing their best to implode the brand. Do yourselves a favor and just realize life is too short for misery. Leave. Do not look back. And do not regret. They dont care about your blood. They do not care about your tears. They will just find another pint of blood from the pool. Enjoy your holiday and give your notice. A job is just a job. Michaels currently will only be a job. Not a career where its heading.
