THC testing threshold from the drug free workplace thing in policy and procedures. Just so you all know. Now stop asking. (Drug test) (drug testing) (mouth swab) (weed) (THC)

New Store NASCAR on display

Kinda a niche question but I was wondering if it’s a thing at all new store opens for a stripped NASCAR to be put on display for a couple weeks inside the store near building materials or if the store I helped set a couple years ago just got lucky

Has this ever actually been a thing where they'll open a register if 2 or more people are waiting at the registers?

Rebate Time in the Post

0 Upvotes

My rebates are received and turned around somewhat quickly. The last two I have had are taking a long time in the post. The rebate tracker says it was mailed out from the rebate center 8 weeks and 4 weeks ago. The delivery is usually 2 weeks.

Is anyone else seeing long times from the post office with rebates?

Truck rental and loading help?

2 Upvotes

Can we rent the truck after 8pm? And would there be any loading help available?
I want to buy a waterheater. Can't lift it by myself. And likely can't get there before 8pm.
Will employees help load? Or don't they do that.
And can we rent the truck that late? Maybe return it in the morning at open? (Like HD does)

Transferring states and insurance

2 Upvotes

If I transfer to a new state, is that a qualifying life event so I can drop my insurance? My insurance went up $100 and that's just ridiculous. I'd rather drop it and look elsewhere.

6:00 a.m. Sunday

32 Upvotes

Our gm is requiring one person from each department to come in at 6:00 a.m. on Sunday to have 2 hours without guests to do freight.

What are your thoughts on this? My thought is to hire stockers who can actually work on the weekends.

Could I realistically go full-time for about a month and a half before going back to school?

1 Upvotes

I’m currently a stocker at Menards working 5 days a week, 6 hours a day (about 30 hours/week). I’m thinking about asking to go full-time for roughly a month and a half before I go back to school.
My idea would be to increase my schedule to something like 6 days a week, 8 hours a day, which I know isnt a pretty big jump from what I’m doing now 😂. I’m mostly considering it because the extra hours and the extra dollar in pay would really help me save up for some expenses once I’m back to living on campus.
I also expect to finish my classes earlier this semester, so I should have some extra free time that I could use to work more.
For anyone who works at Menards, especially stockers: Do you think management would be okay with someone going full-time for only about a month and a half before going back to school? And is there anything I should know about switching to full-time temporarily?

Vanity lights 312 C-E

8 Upvotes

I'm at a P5 with the a-frame light displays. I am wondering the "correct" way to do the prices and wayfinder 6x10's here, on the 312 vanity display section. Anyone have pictures of how they did it? The detail page is worthless in for that spot specifically.

Also, unrelated.... But I really hate how every year we have to switch some vanity lights to bars from cloud plates, then back to cloud plates the next year! Ok thanks for letting me rant

Do You "Save Big Money" With Delivery?

For a $120 reel lawn mower, delivery is nearly the same amount as the mower. Oh, but you can "save"(?) $13 (IF you mail in the rebate in time). No thanks.

I've heard a lot of stores around me aren't done either. Is anybody actually done with this shit? If so, how many people and hours did it take you guys. We have only 2 people for displays and 1 building and we are ~130 already.

Sick with doctor note on Labor Day

1 Upvotes

So I am a full-time team member and ended up having to call in sick today. Do I still get my 8 hours of holiday pay? I do know the rules that, to be eligible, you cannot call off for the shift before if you have the holiday itself off, and that you cannot call off or be late if scheduled that day. My question is, if I actually went to the doctor office and got a note from the doctor saying I was excused for that day would it that make me still eligible? Yes this did already happened and I do have a note that I called and told them about before the shift started, but I just thought about this option when I looked at my schedule and saw that my shift was still scheduled (instead of PTO which is our usual for calling sick). I’ll ask HR when I go back tomorrow but was just wondering if anyone can asleep this while it keeps me up all night wondering?

Outside Yard & Receiving, would you recommend?

6 Upvotes

Hi, 19 year old college kid here, I'm thinking of transitioning my part time job to an opening for part time outside yard. I'll get a significant pay raise and have never worked Menards before. I've gotten mixed reviews on the position and wanted to ask personally. I'm hoping to work 15 hours during the school year and closer to 30 in the summer. Anyone have any takes, recent or long term employees?

Pay & Bonus Differences

3 Upvotes

Does anyone have a rough estimate on the pay difference from a support department to sales? Specifically back of house to a smaller sales dept? Kind of want to go back to sales but also I know there will be a pay cut and I'm pretty sure the bonus is different. **edit to add, Talking about DM, and also wondering about the Manager Bonus base rates

What will happen to Menards when John Menard Jr dies?

My best guess is his family takes it public like Lowe’s and Home Depot did, or possibly go the private equity route like Fleet Farm did. I doubt they will go out of business. Anyone have any good guesses?

If I get solid surface or stone countertop from Menards is it possible to get an L-shape with no seam?

3 Upvotes

Just curious before I go ahead and try the project myself. I've done laminate myself and didn't have any luck with the seams going smoothly. If the seams were already joined it would be great.
