It was around BTC. I was on instocks (RIP). We were out of tide. We were supposed to have combo pallets of it. I told all of my leaders that it is probably getting sent to a store with a similar number. 1 hellish week later; my etl and TL start calling stores. Mysupport is of course useless...

May they step on Legos barefoot for all eternity .

Yup when you have chase and the nearest ATM is a mile away you do what you gotta do. Kinda a jerk move to do it at sb though.

Thank God chicago has sick time. If your area has a sick pay rule, ask to use it to cover your absence. At least in chicago they cannot deny the claim/and or discipline you for it. Of course this will vary wildly depending on where you work.

We started leaving opens in front as samples. We would also defect out quips, and cotton rounds. Saved a ton of money, but this was pre-covid. Haven't worked for spot in awhile

It's the same in bars, so much hot boxing. I'm a stoner , but not everyone likes the smell or wants a contact high.

The most important thing is to be seen working , not living in the office. Keeping clear open communication. Being human if something is fucked up its fucked up ( no kool-aid). Oh and never ask anybody to do something you wouldn't or couldn't do your self. All in all be a leader not a boss.

Had a woman assault another guest, and then moon the entire front end during a regional AP visit. The regional AP director helped escort her out . It was a fun day.

TBH stick with fulfillment. If your GM half your time is spent in fulfillment anyway, with the added pressure of finishing your own work as well. Take this as a blessing in disguise.

Oh you have the cart demons. And yes Mitsubishi appreciates u not fucking with them , and also turning them off when the store is closed

Some states there is a reward( bounty ) for finding a incorrect shelf tag. Ie if the tag says 2.49 but th3 item rings $2.99 the guests get the difference Plus $5(the bounty) for finding the incorrect price tag. Michigan is one state that does this, as well as Ohio if I'm not mistaken could be...

They did to 0nly team members. Funny enough my aunt has one as she used to work for the company a long time ago. That is a second hand seller

When I started we were aaa+ . 2 years in another opened within 2 miles. We were down to a+ when I left. We lost so many leadership positions and payroll was cut to hell. The kicker is now corporate is stuck with 2 underperforming Stores instead of one really profitable one.

Yeah but those r actually good, and hard to find. Almost all protein foods taste like shit. So once you find a good one price is almost irrelevant.
