    Archived Rumors that spot will remain open Sunday's until 11

    My store has been 8-12 for over a year now. It's as much fun as it sounds.

    Archived 6o'clock CAFs?

    My store is adding a 730AM perishables caf. Then Cafs run from 10 through 6. Was previously 11-7. Should be interesting.

    Archived How much control over your availability does your ETL actually have?

    If I only want to be scheduled three days but absolutely have to have Fri-Sun open then I'm limited to those three days and that's a load of BS

    Archived How much control over your availability does your ETL actually have?

    Well I've worked for the store for 3 years and I've always been one of the best employees in the building. I graduate in December and hours don't really matter to me. It just seems ridiculous that someone can tell me when I can and can't work.

    Archived How much control over your availability does your ETL actually have?

    I have been havin issues with my scheduling even after discussing it with my team leader multiple times. I have 4days open but only want to be scheduled for 3. After 4 discussions in four different weeks I was still getting schedule 4 days. Today I approached my etl about the issue and said...

    Archived The Big & Dandy Backroom thread!

    My highest was ~2100. I usually hover around 1500 though.

    Archived The Big & Dandy Backroom thread!

    Competition time? I'm just interested in what your guys highest pull count for a week is. I want to see how mine and other people's numbers in my store compare to you guys.

    Archived Review Grades this year...

    EX 10.6% raise for 97 cents. Obviously affected by the jump in pay. I'm happ...ier than I was before I guess.

    Archived Target among 13 stores probed for hourly wage practices

    Your store actually calls people in if someone calls out? That must be nice. But in all seriousness my store doesn't seem to do most of this stuff.

    Archived How is the produce/meat/bakery auto ordering working for you guys?

    Seems pretty terrible at my store particularly in meat and to some extent produce. Our meat cooler is pretty bare. Was talking to my meat tl today and he said he received one case of chicken that was on ad starting today. He had to tell multiple guests that we are already out of an item within 6...

    Archived What is the one thing you most wish other TMs knew about your workcenter?

    Just because I haven't pulled your EXF or POG yet doesn't mean I'm standing around doing nothing. Chances are I'm probably cleaning up a mess you made earlier or getting bent over by someone else. Pretty much everything in the store runs through the backroom so have patience with us! We really...

    Archived So Starting ETL's Might Be Getting A Raise Too

    I'd say out of the 8 ETLs we have maybe 2 of them are considered great by everyone around the store. In my opinion, the rest aren't very good at all. Hard to believe, but our store is a golden contributor store. We run an absolute skeleton crew year round and our location helps us make...

    Archived So Starting ETL's Might Be Getting A Raise Too

    The logistics ETL at my store works 15 hour days regularly. No exaggeration. It seems like that is what is expected of him. The ETL that he just replaced work ~80 hours a week as well. These guys absolutely work their tails of and still get ripped by our STL. Other ETLs in my store work the...

    Archived Review Grades this year...

    My team lead told me that grades are being totally decided by ETLs and then TLs have to write the review for that grade. Not sure how other stores are, but in previous years TLs had a lot of input into the reviews and grades. This new system seems like its going to be a popularity contest and...

    Archived memorizing backroom fillgroup - department number alignment

    When I was overnight BR I memorized them all. Basically have to when you are bowling out the truck. Now that I am dayside it really helps when I'm using SUBT. I wish every TM had to start out in overnight before they came to dayside. Would make everyone's job easier
