Unfortunately the problem with staffing at Joann's is a corporate matter and the employees, including the managers can't do anything about it. They are only allowed to staff according to the amount they take in. As you, and the employees know, that is not enought. After haveing 5 or 6 shoppers yelling at you and demanding your constant attention, how would you feel for the rest of the day? Let corporate know your feelings and maybe something will be done.
