Undermining another leader or anyone’s work ethic, efforts, or teamwork, etc., by way of verbally undermining the person to other team members behind their back. Makes the team wonder if they’re being talked about as well, start to question the judgment and trustworthiness of the bad-mouther, and unfortunately often sets a little seed in the back of their mind about the person being bad-mouthed. Morale deteriorates and the team starts to crack. Any type of bad-mouthing is awful, of course, but undermining in this way is a certain kind of insidious. It creates a type of doubt that’s really hard to mend and makes everyone feel like garbage.

For 🐠🐟 that live in the Circle C area, is there really a difference between Circle C proper vs. the surrounding neighborhoods (e.g. Circle C North)? Or are we basically just paying a premium for the name?

For all you retail people...are you experiencing a very slow holiday season? I am a retail manager and I feel like this season has been freakishly slow. I thought we would at least match last year's number or be up a little bit but we are trending down. I talked to employees of other stores in the mall and they are saying the same thing. Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)? It seems like the larger chain stores would have more downtime, but I'm wondering if anyone could give some input.

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
