Flat $3 regardless of where you are?

I had a fellow tl, who demoted & took a 3.00 hit. Depends on your area on pay. My store is in a major metro area.

Sounds about right because $3 is the pay increase in my area for being a TL.

Spot might not hire you.

Why go backwards? Find a comparable job somewhere else at this point.
Who has ever wanted to get money taken away from them?

When I demoted myself they never took any money from me... However I think it was something that was missed and not a norm?

I'd agree to that end. Unless you were able to argue that TL pay was still deserved, the norm is to bump down by a couple dollars and in many cases there's some residual "experience pay" to keep you above regular TM starting pay.

I demoted from Sr. TL to TM and lost about $5.75. As to the question of why demote rather than find another position.... I cannot think of another job that would pay NEARLY the amount I was making to do something as easy as stick clearance stickers on things, which I did while picking up some graduate courses.
