Sounds like union hysteria. I doubt much of this post is real.

In 2016 several episodes of chest discomfort resulted in a heart cath, angioplasty and one Stent.

That was on a Friday and I was back at work by the next Tuesday.

The only person told what was happening was my supervisor.

By the time I got back to work everybody in my office had heard I had a heart attack.

Unbelievable. SMH

I worked for a very good company that was bought out by Dillards. My company was good to it’s personnel. Dillards was awful. Everything that was said here is true. I was fortunate in that the distribution center I worked at was closed. The poor folks at the stores were screwed. Legal means nothing to the company. They used social security numbers as employee numbers. Medical records were not kept properly and so on. I would stand on a street corner before I would work for them.

I had a neighbor that worked in the Ralph Lauren department at a local Dillards.....her biggest complaint was the drug dealers that came in spending cash......she said the money actually smelled.....BAD.

If you think about it, there’s no telling where those bills had been.

There’s a money laundering joke in there somewhere.

I always thought of Dillard’s as the poor relation to Nordstrom which was run right or at least used to be.

Where’s your mall?

Flatly illegal.

It would seem. I am thinking maybe they get paid an hourly rate which is fixed and there is a pro-rated bonus they earn per sale up to the full value if they make the quota and they feel entitled to it so if they don't make the quota they consider it a pay cut. If that is the case I'm not judging them on the 'feel entitled to it' comment, the hourly rate may be very low and they may have been made promises that the company isn't keeping so I'm not making a judgement here.

Some years ago my wife worked as a cashier at Target.
She was expected to push the Target card on everyone who went through her register. She had excellent evaluations except for one: did not get customers to sign up for the cards.

and of lot of things conflated.

But in the end, the store needs to sell stuff, and the employees need to be invested in that goal.

Beloved history, indeed!

I spent 13 years between Hurlburt, Eglin, and Duke Field. I hated driving in to P'Cola. Mobile was much more fun and interesting, even if it was a longer drive.

Pensacola used to have three big malls. We enjoyed going there from Ft. Walton. Now there is only one, Cordova Mall, and it is shrinking..................

Most Dillard's employees have sales goals they need to meet

That's right make the employees at fault if people aren't buying their Communist Chinese junk.

Margaret Drysdale was more a Nieman Marcus shopper.

Agreed. The anonymous guy is lying. In this case, I trust the corporation over some anonymous reddit troll.
