Read the October planner. Has some basic info. Basically all freight is "priority 1" all dbos will be scheduled 30 minutes after unload. Push first, then pulls, then zone. Trucks should be cleaned by 930am. Baby hardlines will still pull first (fifo requirements, not sure why otc wasn't thought...

Sorry it's been awhile, and sadly no changes here, actually, even more was put on my plate. His background is from ETL food/HR. Unfortunately, I think the only reason my ETL ever survived as an ETL was that the last SD was her friend and carried her ass. It's becoming quite clear she has no...

I am going to be in the same spot for the new line custom block changes come BTS. They want me to start at 1 as well. Typically, I don't make any changes to the system until everything is laminated, and ready to be put up. If you have any non-truck days, do it as they close the truck the day...

Our unload is 6am, we never go over 2 hours unless there's serious issues. I understand greenfield and utilize it well for placing DBOs on the line for their strengths, as well as understanding where push help is needed for the day based on scheduled hours. 8 trucks a week. We're still on the...

Thankfully, for the team who is there with me from opening, until I leave, are all pretty efficient. I have proven the issue of hours time and time again to my ETL GM/HR and my SD. The areas we roll most consistently are areas that I'm not there to help with or to even begin removing roadblocks...

I'm so confused how a large corporation like target isn't on the same page on what is truly someone's role. Every store is different. But yet, when modernization happened, I specifically saw a break down of who is suppose to own what. What's even worse, my Plano peer is god awful at his job...

Hey all, So we recently got a new SD, right at the beginning of April and he has not made the changes yet for the new breakdown of B/C/D to style. Currently, I'm at my wits end. I've been an inbound TL for 3 years, always owned PP1s. Hba/OTC/pet/paper/chem. However, my new SD has told me that...

It's a big change. My 2 hours adds up to 30 minutes for each person. So 30x6 is still an hour gained, but if you're looking at it vehicles wise, that's essentially a vehicle each. That's 6 vehicles that weren't getting done before. It also allows me to ensure they are each being held...

Have team members give goal times for their vehicles. See who's actually near the 1 minute per box. I even have my DBO's communicate when they are pulled off their process for helping guests so that way other leaders and myself are aware of how busy they are that day and have reasons of why they...

Dear dc, please stop stacking pallets INSIDE the trailer. If I can't get it out with a pallet jack because it won't fit when attempted to be brought out, I know you stacked it inside the trailer. It's a pain in the ass.

I'm burnt the fuck out. Our store went to 3-4 trucks a week to 7+. I took the GMTL 1 position, which is unload/receiving/PP1 areas last November right before it hit and it seems like it's been Q4 the whole time. To top it off, our district lead comes in nearly twice a week since we've been...

In my store it's the seasonal DBO. However in another store in town, their market team does mini. If they pull the fill by "aisle" instead of "area" it's easier to avoid the extra pulls for double locs

For the most part, all aisles are zigzagged in my store, unless it's a singular wall. Even if the aisles are split with several DBO's. Which is a pain in the butt when pulling empty locs

For my unload, I have 1 thrower, 1 PIPO worker (who assists throwing/sorting when not working any PIPO's), 3 on the front PP1 side, 2 on PP2 side (they also handle transition when available), and 2 A&A who stagger (630am and 7am). We have about 6 trailers a week these days, Sundays non-truck...

Each backroom section is kind of different. Some of my aisles are blended with other DBO's. For instance, my 01a001 wall has babies and chemicals, this is just a single wall, and babies takes the first half, I get the second half. But within my chemical section, which starts at H, H holds items...
