Seriously Joanns?

Ok, I get that today was Columbus Day so apparently some people didn't have to work AND there was a sale, but...

a 45 minute wait for the cutting table????????????

at 3:30 in the afternoon?????????????

Ugh.

I had thought about stopping by when I got off work at 5 p.m. but I passed. I'm sure mine would have been as bad.

I hate that! I've actually complained to the store manager here about the wait times and when that was brushed off I contacted corporate.

It literally took 5 minutes to choose my items for cutting, 35 minutes to get them cut, and then another 30 minutes to pay for them... on a typical weekday evening. If I didn't have a project to finish I would have put my stuff down and walked away.

Ugh - sounds like my Joann's every single weekend. I avoid that place like the plague on weekends and holidays

Joanns has the slowest service ever. I've left there beyond irritated by wait times more than once.

I ran the other night and was actually surprised at how dead it was. Usually I have a ridiculous wait time.

I went first thing in the morning and was there as the doors opened Sunday. I still waited 45 min.

yeah...I usually try to get in there as soon as they open on the weekends. I find at my local stores the wait to get fabric cut isn't so bad, but the line to actually check out is usually insane. Very frustrating!

I always have an annoying wait at the cutting tables and checkout. I can kinda understand the delay at the cutting table. (KINDA I figure they just don't have enough people trained for it.) But the cash register?! Not a freakin chance. They are morons if they can't ring up in a timely manner.

One time I walked away at the checkout counter because it was getting so ridiculous. I stopped there with time to kill (an hour-ish) before a meeting (mid-work day, not typically a busy time). I waited for about 25min in line at the cutting table, then another 15 because the bolt of fabric I wanted wouldn't scan and they couldn't find one with a UPC, and then an even longer in line at the checkout, then the new cashier couldn't get my coupon to work, then we had to wait for a manager, and then the manager realized the problem was with what had happened at the cutting counter and called back there to have them recorrect the UPC... (I'm 5 minutes late for my meeting at this point) so I just said "I can't wait any longer." and left. I felt like a b*** but I absolutely couldn't keep waiting.

Mine was a nightmare this weekend too. I walked in for a quick trip and couldn't even see the end of the line to check out. So I walked right back out.
