    Archived Feeling overworked

    Lately, I have been GSA, Hardlines, Softlines, Food Ave, Starbucks, and Cart Attendant in the same shift. I feel like I am the only GSA they expect this out of. They scheduled someone who is on LOA to work tonight and started trying to come up with a plan yesterday. When I left work yesterday...

    Archived Guess what I heard today!!! An HR nightmare waiting to happen.

    I have never interviewed to work in other areas of the store. My STL just batted his eyelashes and pretty blue eyes and asked me if I wanted to. That's how I ended up being a GSA, Pfresh Assistant, Instocks, Pricing, Flex Fullfillment, etc...

    Archived electronics pay?

    I don't know. I refuse to work electronics because the repetitive noises would drive me insane. I do know specialist work centers do get paid more than their counterparts. For example, I got a pay raise when I went from flow to PA.

    Archived Consumables shift! Help!!!

    At my store, a consumables shift either means a pfresh shift or to help push the food truck. For example, my shift tomorrow is a consumables shift that starts at 9 am but tomorrow is a food truck day. There is a TM coming in for a consumables shift at 6 am. They are the PA for the day and I am...

    Archived Being off the clock and seeing theft-

    That happened to a team member at my store. He was leaving the store and saw a known booster walk into the store. He immediately turned around and informed the LOD. He stopped this girl from boosting hundreds of dollars in whitening strips, got praised for it and did not get into trouble.

    Archived Is this happening at any other store?

    Archived To GSAs and GSTLs. Do you speedwave Guests First or TMs?

    TM usually just go to food ave or guest service to checkout when we are busy but if not, they checkout at the lanes. I treat them like every other guest and try to get them through checkout as soon as possible. At my store, the guest tend to be nice to the TM on break and let them go ahead of...

    Archived Remember when pallets on the floor were frowned upon?

    I went to a help out a store like this a few weeks ago. They had to unbury the truckline just to unload. The flow tl was impressed at how fast me and my other coworkers cleared pallets. When we got back, I told our etl log he wasnt allowed to complain about me leaving only 4 small breakout carts.

    Archived Scheduling?

    I just started learning GSA and my shifts are either GSA or flow/backroom/other. Two GSA's work softlines and the other also works hardlines/starbucks. My STL basically lets us chose where we wanna work to get 40 hours even though we are all very flexible and willing to do what is needed for our...

    Archived *****InStocks Best Practice!*****

    I am not sure what your store has you do and why. My store has us scan the outs and critical lows. Anytime the location is empty using the instocks app, we are to enter 0. When scanning in sub signs, we use the aisle number that the sign is in. You can just start scanning in stand alone...

    Got coached tonight. Wow.

    I used to work as a chat agent for a cell phone company. We actually had canned response stating that we do not unlock phones nor do we recommend doing so. It does void the warranty and could potentially cause issues with the phone. It is probably best to play dumb when a guest asks about...
