Luckily at my grocery store, most of our pallets are shrink-wrapped. The ones that are not are watermelon/pumpkin bins, milk crates, and some shippers. Everything else in the fresh departments, grocery, and GM, as well as supplies is shrink-wrapped. That means I might be okay, but I would...

QMOS: Quantity Markout System Pfresh: Prototype Fresh

They always had team member appreciation week during what was called the best team survey.

You don't want an OSHA inspection, as they not only look at the issue(s) called about but also look at everything in your store with a fine-toothed comb. We think the a union rep for our grocery store called OSHA, so we had a visit a few years back.

There is a sign on the bailer at the grocery store where I now work that states it must be closed when not in use.

He once had a bomb threat at our store. The police were called and our store evacuated and the police were called. I think the caller wanted gift cards or at least the card numbers or the bomb would be activated. I kinda figured something was up and then really knew there was a problem after my...

Tell me what pud is. It has been over 5 years since I worked for Target.

At the ultra-low volume store, I used to work at we got trucks on T/T/S and then the STL worked to get it moved to M/W/F. He did, as we could not get people to work on the weekends. In the end, we either got trucks on T/T or M/W/F depending on the piece count of the truck.

Fair and rodeo week

Not OPU, but rather SFS. KY Jell and Hellman's Mayo. I guess Hellman's is not available west of the Rockies (only Best Foods). I am in the middle of the Rockies, so both are available here.

I was sent out of town with our ETL-HR to sit through a morning-long lecture on food safety and in the afternoon we were given a test. You were notified a few months if you passed or not. If so good, if not you were sent back to do it over at your store's expense.

A saw few times while still working for Spot.

Yep, even when I still worked for Spot I often shopped online after the Wednesday ad/Black Friday set, before the Grey Thursday madness, or before/after my Black Friday shift. I do a lot of shopping online but will go the store for those few instore only offers.

I am just happy once again that I don't have to deal the Black Friday Madness. While the last 4 or 5 days in the produce department at the grocery store that I work at has been murder I am much happier than at Target. For whatever reason, my boss has yet to schedule me for a Thanksgiving, so I...

Not C&S, but once we were called by another store in our district to tell us that we would not get a weekly load from the Iowa FDC. After taking the temp of their load they found it was way out of temp. Our load was next and I guess the driver just took both loads back to the FDC. I don't if we...
