    Tips for pushing freight faster?

    Alot of times sort team runs out of Uboats so the sort can be a little messy. If you can find an empty uboat, take an aisle or 2 of the uboats that have been sorted, itll help push quicker. But if theyre sorting it properly, just make sure youre pushing the uboat down the aisle with you and not...

    COVID-19 Masks and gloves

    Its completely hypocritical that we have to NOW and guest don't HAVE to. So the past month that we've been exposed and not having a requirement means fuck all? This shit is so dumb. I had to wear one today for the first time and after about 2 minutes i have to pull it off my face so i can...

    .

    That extra .50 was necessary, the lack of actual work in those areas is nothing compared to what others do (food, inbound, sales floor) I cant tell you how many times ive seen the tech team member(s) just hanging out at the boat talking. I was a TL over that area and had to constantly give them...

    R.I.P. Inbound

    Weve been doing over night since sunday night, and will continue the rest of this week. We were able to unload a 3200 piece truck and have all grocery/commodities pushed before open at 8. Feels good

    R.I.P. Inbound

    People have been saying this for years, they didnt spend all that money on new vehicles and roll out a whole new process for DBOs, just to revert back and do a pallet system.

    MEGATHREAD 2018-2019 Store Modernization Megathread

    Can we not just go back to $11 an hour and give us more hours to actually run a business? $15 an hour sounds great and all but did people really think theyd be keeping their 40 hours a week?!

    MEGATHREAD 2018-2019 Store Modernization Megathread

    This is probably the worst ive seen payroll in my 6 years with spot... Its getting crazy. We went from 9 sorters scheduled 7 hours to 6 (4 GM/ 2 style) scheduled 6 hours, DBOs only getting 6-7 if theyre lucky. DBOs are supposed to be doing zone/data fix/ 1-1s (which can be very large for...

    Logistics What are your leadership tips for success?

    You're gonna have to fire majority of them or show them the purpose of what youre trying to accomplish. I was in a similar position a year ago, and it took ALOT of hard work and tranining and getting the right people in place.

    MEGATHREAD 2018-2019 Store Modernization Megathread

    Any stores doing this "Stay sharp status" BS??? Ive been a TL for 5 years, but somehow i need to go over a piece of paper daily with my competent team to make sure theyre engaged. This shit is getting ridiculous! I hate micro managing.
