@hufflepuff sounds like someone will be getting a CA if their lucky. If not lucky, they would be on final or termed for safe and secure reasons.
Bribe your doctor and come down with the flu that doesn't relent until Wednesday with doctor's note as proof.STOP FUCKING SCHEDULING ME SO MUCH
To that new team member: Turn down your walkie in the breakroom.
We're all there to relax & escape the mayhem & the LAST thing we want is to hear a bunch of floor chatter.
I don't care that you *like* listening to everything that's going on while you're on break, we DON'T so turn it down or off before we shove it someplace NSFW
You have to have your walkie on though. If someone calls for you, they need to know you are on break, so they have the information to decide to wait for you or get someone else. Sometimes someone needs a piece of equipment and needs to know where to track you down. And sometimes a simple answer to a question from earlier that day saves everyone a lot of time and aggravation, including your level of aggravation.UGH, one of my pet peeves every year during the holidays. I actually used to yell at TMs as they came in through the door and their walkie was going off at the same time.
Difference between having it on and having it on full blast. Service advocates at my store have earpieces so I just leave mine on low but for most people I’m ok with low but just don’t leave it on all the way.You have to have your walkie on though.

I agree with your point, it just gets aggravating hearing this over and over everyday. I don't want to sound harsh but maybe he's a little slow because he never seems to realize he already told someone the same thing earlier. It's not just the "Thanks for coming in", it's also his plans on Saturday night to go clubbing or when I bring up sports, it's "I don't watch baseball/football".Let them recite their scripted condescending patronizing bullshit, just give them a grin, do you work, collect your paycheck, punch out, go home. Repeat.
At my store, every TM announces when they are going on break or lunch.You have to have your walkie on though. If someone calls for you, they need to know you are on break, so they have the information to decide to wait for you or get someone else.
We always announced too, but sometimes someone didn't get the memo. Or (a few times) someone needed the very scarce zebras and had to track me down to grab it. Or (twice) one time they did call for me for the location of an item held for a guest and I answered and went back to watching Family Feud; the other time they didn't and it turned into a VERY BIG DEAL because GS couldn'tAt my store, every TM announces when they are going on break or lunch.
If someone tries to call for said TM when they're gone, a chorus ALWAYS pipes up with "They're on break/lunch!"
