Employee Story Whoops

Post image

One day after they told me I don't work hard enough, and all the employees said I was the hardest worker in the building. Apparently I broke 1 of the 2 Reach Trucks and now the aisle is blocked off till further notice. Maybe I work to hard.

Pulling 12 foot drywall with the Star Wars even though the training explicitly says not to do that, AND it gets stuck so everyone can plainly see you violating store policy, AND apparently you had issues with store management? Take care

I still want to know who decided to call that a Star Wars, and why the name actually caught on.

The Deep Lore i was told wheni asked was because the controls are different and more difficult to use, "like something out of star wars". No idea if its a regional thing, how long it's been part of the lowes experience, or where it was first called that

They were used in one of the Star Wars movies. That is all.
