With me I think they are increasingly going by the Transition/Salesplan Adjacency calendar...which doesn't allow for the Signing Monthly or maintenance jobs like keeping the FR organized, repairing misused fixtures/signing, researching part #s, My Supports, SAP, Guest Vibing, questions from...

Pallets late three weeks in a row and this time no packing slips at all. Of course checking stuff in has gone to the wayside anyway....no hours. Until hours improve I only have enough time to unload pallets and do bare minimum ordering for stuff we are totally out of our nearly so. Don't know...

Which is ironically scary because as a Spot TM I am a shareholder. So in order to protect my profits Spot may soon force me to seek employment at Wally World (in order to avoid becoming one of the growing homeless who can't afford to shop anywhere not a thrift store and thus cease to be a Spot...

Dread the day physical books, movies, and music are gone. Can't imagine having to trust some unseen cloud to hold my media. Bad enough so many official records are only available online. One malicious pulse, hacker organization, or mega virus and....poof. X-Files: Trust no one....

Yes, but let's have fun off stage. Not only do I not care to look ridiculous, but I bet the guest at the other end of the store is looking for someone to say CIHYFS? Where is everyone? In front of the store tripping on hula hoops.

Except when it's stuff like holiday Signing with a one-time only date on it and they bring back all the headers and toppers after the set. Double demerits when they stick that Valentines header in with the brand ones and I don't find it until the following Halloween.

To the idiots who think telling really crass jokes in the break room while people are trying to eat? Your sense of comedic timing is way off. Next time save it for when you are in the parking lot with no one in ear shot.

Heck, when on one side they tell you to look and act professional at all times while on the floor and then turn around putting you on the spot to act the fool for Spot in front of multiple witnesses? No thanks. I want to keep what little dignity I have left. :senile:

When you can get them to bring me my aspirin bottle (with the pills still in it) I'll try for other tricks like those.

When this first started and for many a store huddle after that we were instructed to use that exact phrase and no other as anything else was not brand. Can I come work at your store? So tired of CIHYFS for which every smart-alec answer is "I don't know...can you?" :wink2:

Can I say right now that I loathe "Can I help you find something?" mostly because it makes us all sound like robots? Guests are not stupid. They hear the exact same phrase several times during their stay and it kind of clues them in that we are being forced to ask that rather than it being a...

Say what?! :angry: Then they'd better allocate more signing hours for the same amount of setup because this is taking longer. Not to mention tying up more space in the backroom while we open up all these John Doe boxes to find out what the mystery meat inside is. They could at least put the...

Headers in Chips too? ack I'm hating, hating, hating the way the boxes were shipped. Should have been either by planogram with maybe all the generic headers together in one box....you know, the way they used to do things and which worked. Someone wanted Lunchbox...you grabbed the Lunchbox...

I'm afraid to go look, but will probably have to soon what with all the missing signage for the Snacks set.
