Except for Apple. I've actually CRC'd an Apple watch someone returned because they changed their mind on color after buying it. Never even left the store.

I just feel like this needs to be quoted and restated again and again. I'm one of those overachievers that was trained on every position that didn't require supervisor numbers, regularly would come in when called or stay late, and didn't even carry my phone when on the floor. Aaand, I'm on the...

I have a somewhat unique perspective on it I think. I recently transferred from a high volume store that was going after End to end hardcore, to a low volume store that's failing at it hardcore. I have to say.... It's all about the people. My original high volume store was doing well with it...

Our salesfloor ETL started calling it a Ze-brah. It makes sense, we work for Tar-zhay, right?

Sounds like, as usual, its ASANTS. At my locality, Electronics TM comes in half hour before store opens, pulls their batches and works that, and electronic/entertainment freight while its quiet in the morning. Relatively speaking at least. Now the evening shift... There's typically a half hour...

I have a long standing dislike, bordering on hatred, for the hot wheels and other collector/resellers. Collectors aren't too bad, but the resllers..........!

We've had for awhile, the absolute best part is that it has a replaceable battery to go with the built in scanner. Aw. Yeah. One of our TL's even uses the handle you can slot it into, to make it "look" like a PDA gun. He's inordinately proud of it.

Our entire electronics dept is locked down or spider wrapped except for the computer accessories and ink weirdly enough. They've special ordered all shapes and sizes of lock boxes for game controllers, CD's are all in keepers. Anything that's locked has to be checked out back in electronics, its...

This is probably going to depend HOW they do it. There's most likely a number of legal ways for them to avoid any liability. Big corps are good at that.

I saw in the article they purchased Jet.com. I'm sure they are adding in the sales from them into their percentage, along with any other online stores they acquired.

Clopens are pretty common at my store, for everyone including ETL's. I have NO idea why they keep doing that a little more effort would prevent it. I don't have to worry anymore since I'm now the designated mid-shift sacrifice for End to End. On the turn around time, its state by state. My...

I've price matched Dollar General before after asking our GSTL. I was just covering a lunch, so she explained it to me. I wouldn't be surprised if we did the rest also...with the exception if it requires one of their loyalty cards I suspect.

This. A million times THIS. I don't even consider them toys. Technically it wasn't intended as one.

Right now there are 3 GSA's at my store that are chasing after the carrot. We're supposed to be getting a starbucks, and all three are trying for it. However, I've heard rumblings that the spot's already pretty much filled by someone that transferred in that's on the bench already. And yet...

Going to be a LOT of upset guests. I wonder if they'll leave the perks up until the 31st, since thats what they're listed as expiring on. Otherwise, they just did that reset where they changed the movie/cd/books perks to a single one for $10 off, instead of free under 20. Did that with a few...
