    Leadership Pet Peeves

    The inability to admit when they're wrong in my store. One of my leaders would even argue about how much truck got done despite being able to physically count how many vehicles were left in the backroom. They always have to be right about everything whether they are or not.

    2023 New pilots?

    I feel like with how many different positions there are and how unique the tasks of those positions are it would be unfair to say one is worth getting paid more than the other. That being said, with them bringing back emphasis on Trainers again, I think maybe trainers could possibly get a little...

    Cosmetics reset

    we've started setting and can confirm that certain pogs that others have mentioned are standard "reverse" set. The set moves like it's standard but each individual shelf is in reverse so nothing really flows. We don't have our little colorful labels in yet so I'm hoping that clears up some...

    Cosmetics reset

    I set a lotion revision once a year ago that did that. It flipped literally everything in a really weird way, then fixed itself in the next revision. But when you set it "standard" it was still in reverse, basically. So the sections would stay 1 2 3 4 but each shelf within the section would be...

    2023 New pilots?

    While I do think some of it boils down to leadership, we just don't have a team large enough to handle the freight coming in. We didn't before the change and it got worse after the change. Our store heavily relies on Guest Interaction too so we're always pulling people to do Fulfillment and...

    2023 New pilots?

    We did this before q4 in my store. It's failing so badly. My store just barely falls short every year in going up in volume/payroll (I'm talking like, we were less than 100k away last year) and we're getting so much freight in we can't handle it. When it first started they included everything as...

    How long does it take you for a ship batch?

    Yeah I wanna second what someone above said about it being store specific. Every now and then I'll get a cart that's super easy, but I've had ship carts take me up to two hours. The main reason for this is because we've been designated a power store for ship, so we get forecasted 700-1000+ on a...

    Specialty How's Ulta going?

    Anyone who doesn't have an Ulta keep getting a bunch of Ulta products in their repacks though? I don't know if I should hold onto them for holiday or go ahead and put some of them out.

    Fall tm bonus

    I was given mine today. Considering the work I put in the last three months--a ton of OT, 40 hours every week at least, not to mention my average hours, the amount was kinda disappointing. I just can't help thinking that if a TM got nominated that did not have a large availability, their bonus...

    Least favorite department to push in?

    I feel like I'm the only person in my store that *loves* pushing cosmetics. Like yeah it's a ton of stuff but there's so many little spaces to fill and every time I find something for fulfillment I feel like I know my area well. I did inventory prep for Grocery and detested it, and pushing it...

    Why so much incoming freight?

    155 Neutrogena Makeup Remover wipes in the back...we get three or more boxes per truck I want to scream every time I see the DPCI

    I'm Lost! Drive ups

    I second the have someone outside processing while someone else is inside pulling. I usually grab the cart attendant and send them out with a new cart of soon to be arriving orders every time I have them gathered. It's not perfect because there is a LOT of chaos but it's way better than one SD...

    How's Q4

    guest service is a pit of doom and all our seasonal cashiers are nc/ns'ing like crazy so uhhhh

    Anybody else expected to do TL stuff as a cashier?

    I try to look at it positively. I am a regular advocate who almost always has the keys to get to the cash drawer etc. I also bank the lanes at night and I do cash office at least once a week. I was not a GSA before Modernization so this is all new to me, but they tell me I'm doing well and...

    Do you have "trainers" at your store?

    I think they're bringing trainers back for the holidays since a few of us that work the front were asked to take the training and told about the position. I'm sure it's basically just a fancy title.
