    I had the fixture room super organized at the start of this year, then we did a remodel and a bunch of yahoos were in and out of it all summer and despite the fact I was the 'fixture' guy for the remodel, I also got to be the signing guy too because of course they decided not to have the signing...

    I did the two seasonal overheads we had(I'm still not certain if something is missing but I couldn't find more so -_-), otherwise I do fuckallnone of it, and won't unless explicitly ordered to. I still assist some TMs who know I'm the guy to go to for questions about pogs/fixtures/signing, but...

    Lets see 'em at a register for eight hours on, eight off, eight on again and then I'll feel like they ain't just making a token attempt to look like they 'worked'

    Man, at first I was a bit miffed when leadership at more store apparently decided they didn't need me to do any signing, or sort pallets, or clean up the fixture room or do any of the things literally no one else will do, but I'm getting better at letting the complete disaster my store has...

    Its been awhile since I built bikes but since the quality control on the bike manufactures has dropped sometimes the threading isn't great in the crank arms, or the bearings are shit, and the pedals strip right out of the crank arms fairly quickly. I personally always check bikes out for people...

    That was me, never heard a damn thing about it afterwards. So I'm guessing they decided it was too much effort or something, who knows.

    Oh, I should add he said he was likely going to be back with some colleagues in the next couple weeks, so if y'all have any suggestions for QOL things involving the signing pallet/signing packaging, basically anything CEVA related I'd love to hear them so I can pass them on. I spoke a bit to...

    Did the Cat and Jack gateway signing myself, second one took about an hour and a half. Had a visit from a HQ person today who observed my process for breaking down my signing pallet, supposedly going to be working with CEVA to improve what they send us. Seemed focused on better labeling of...

    I have almost nothing for stationary. I got two new posterboard fixtures, and two other fixtures from that section along with them... all of which are still brand new from last year. Otherwise the signing I've gotten is like, a 6x18 and a shelftalker and thats it. Just remembered, got a handful...

    Probably because they have no idea what stores actually have. My store only has a backlit movie fixture at the checklanes, and last month they started sending me 6 graphics, and have continued to send me 6 every week.

    The one I got in the box said 2017 Top Toys and was full of NOF stuff and things that we don't carry. I figured they just resent last year's.
