One time I had a migraine so bad that I was up all night and didn't sleep for even an hour. My migraines give me stroke-like symptoms and can be pretty bad. I called off for my shift that Friday. My HR didn't come in Saturday because she had a headache. Guess who got coached...

my team is very segregated. plano is in their own world and i swear they are seen as gods by the executives. even though they are supposed to come in at 8am so that there are people on the floor to help our guests, they get to come in at 4am and not respond to backup calls. pricing comes in at...

OMG 10+ ?? that has to be a joke... the guests at my store would freak. my cashiers have to push their button if they are more than 1+1. we just got a new HR who (so far) has been making sure that the cashier schedule actually provides enough coverage. during the week we actually have been...

my instocks team gets their stuff done every week. my etl-log makes sure that her workcenter is 100% every week. my pog team doesn't even set checklane endcaps. hell, the last time gum reset they set it a week late when they are NEVER late on anything. literally checklane gum was the ONLY pog...

When I called off my 2 days in a row I was pulled in by my STL and ETL. I knew it was coming but luckily I don't have attendance issues so I don't have to worry.

I'm not saying don't call off if you are sick. I was sick with some virus and called off two days in a row after being miserable at work for 2 days with a fever and cough. I also got other people sick who ended up calling off during the week once they caught it. I Personally think it's smart to...

They changed in February. Previously only 9s and 10s counted as amazed. Anything 8 or below hurt you. And you had to be above 80% amazed. Now 8s count as amazed but you have to be above 90%. My store gets a lot of 8s apparently so this change was great for us.

just posted about this in another thread... whenever there are call-offs early morning, my etl-log uses those hours to fill her workcenter and keep people instead of giving them to the workcenter that originally had the hours. flow is also the only workcenter to overspend every month at my store.

oh that's shitty. we only ever have one opening cashier but to schedule them under one workcenter and then use them in another? why don't they just schedule them under truck unload?? i have been wondering lately... at my store the front end has to push SSS and candy (autos and truck) every...

also... do you know the new format for the surveys or do you need me to explain it to you???

my cashiers have pens and highlighters at their registers. they all look for one at the start of their shift and if they don't have them, they ask me for one. i don't know why pens grow legs and run away but they certainly are hard to keep in place.

i'm too lazy to read through all 70 other pages so i'll just ask assuming it hasn't been asked... does anyone else have issues with the stupid things not scanning??? on saturday i went through 4 devices before i found one that would scan. also, anyone else have issues with the stupid target...

what are you referring to? flow team getting too many hours??? target forecasts the hours for each week and it's up to the STL and ETL-HR to allocate the hours.

I used to have the worst attendance in my building when i started (would call off once a week at least). my store was treating me well but i felt my hobbies were more important than my job. i lied all the time about why i had to call off and was never coached. then people that called off every...
