Exactly this! Remember your doing them a favor by losing hours, but in reality you were scheduled and are therefore required to let you work those hours. However on the flip side its also important to be flexible because you don't want them to slash your hours for not being flexible.

You should Mysupport the impacted DPCI's. Don't TPC unless its discontinued because it will inflate the your needs and corporate will keep sending you more to meet the demand. We had a similar problem on eggos a while back and we kept getting more until our DTL called it out.

I drop pogs for each pog twice a week. I walk wine orders and scan to see if I have in the back. If its a large quantity I don't let them bring it in.

I wouldn't want you to get into trouble or anything but when my pfresh first opened the backroom figured that putting a magnet on top of the door senor would disable the alarm. If you look at the door there's a piece of medal that sticks out that's the sensor you want to put it on. The other...

Heck no you did the bulk of the work sounds like the closer is just lazy. Have they ever worked a morning market shift, it can get a little crazy at times. Try taking on your own work load plus having your c&s truck late and having to help the team push as well. Granted there was no order that...
