A peer at one store tells me they just walk it and subt the needed items and pick one day to do stand alone research. An ETL at another store tells me to do POG fills daily. I am looking for routine that works well for most people.

Would any of you be so kind as to tell me what your routine is on replenishing Wine & Spirits.

I just focus on the U grade team members. I give them RWT goals for an easier department. If they can't make those goals, that is enough for a performance discussion. You will find that once you start getting rid of the U grade team members, the IEs typically turn into Es. The EXs are happy...

Volume : B Truck size: 2500-2700 Auto fill: 13-15 hours Black line: 325-500 TMs: 5 (4 working 7.75, 1 working 4.75)

As long as the Sales floor Team Leads give us 24 hours notice, they will have their sales planners ready for them the day they need it. Some TLs drop batches and they don't set the sales planner until a week later. Its helps to know when they are going to actually need it so we can manage the...

Did the original poster say anything about ULV? I am ignorant about how ULV works as I have never worked in any store like that. My advice was for Early AM / Overnight. Chances are if you are ULV you won't have much guests to help in the morning.

You need to be good at holding people accountable. Set timelines and coach when needed. While you will be pushing at times you don't want to be stuck down an aisle and not knowing what the rest of the team is doing. You are a Leader, point the team in the right direction. Turn over is high in...

Training and communication are the most important thing. You can do empty loc reports and LOCU updates all day long, but you must stop the bleeding first. Educate the team on how errors are created. Work along side them in case they have any questions. Coach and recognize.

What are the changes for Logistics?

Quit talking bad about your peers in Logistics and help them to succeed. We need to stick together.

Even for being the fourth quarter the process should not be like that. The DTL should have a special team of people come in to fix that process right away and teach these people BEST PRACTICES. As far as that advice for LOCUing goes, that sounds very unproductive. M delete, if used properly is...

I am a Logistics TL Backroom Early AM with key and I also run the in stocks team. I have them push left over auto fill when I need them to, but the scanning does get done. I have the day side backroom team push out the priority pulls when in stocks has helped us with the auto fills. Based on...

I always enjoyed watching Bill Cunningham. Is your bulk plastics section a dark corner? I would be more concerned in the signing area.

When I see people complaining about the quality of tv they get in the break room yeah I would say it has everything to do with a sense of entitlement. These are the same people who complain that the FFF events do not come with free food. I have been around the retail world for some time now and...

Only at Target do employees have this sense of entitlement.
