    Archived I call out because

    Voted for Workcenter I Hate but I do post it on the swap board as soon as I see it. I will also call off for severe snow because I'm not screwing with that. Also, you mention aside from injury (among other things). Do you consider a charlie horse a form of injury? I got the awesome genetics...

    Archived Random POG Questions

    I call them spirals but there's probably an official name for them. You usually find them in little baggies with the boxes of backer paper. Sometimes its just a simple peg that wedges into a peg hole. A year or so ago Target wanted to eliminate having to un-wedge them every time there was a...

    Archived Random POG Questions

    We just use a measuring tape and sing ABC's to each dot. As far as base deck label strips go: If it's the type that grip around and under the lip, lift the base deck up if you can and work it. If it's the pressure grip that sits inside the trench, put the bottom in first and use a thin, blunt...

    To that one guest

    Giving the absolute sliver of the benefit of the doubt, Christmas can be hell on gaming platforms. Sometimes it's a malicious DDoS attack. Sometimes it's thousands of newly opened consoles all pinging the authentication and update servers at the same time. In any case, it's up to the guest to...

    Archived Police: Woman tries to steal in Framingham store full of cops on goodwill mission for kids

    Tangent... So a company that shits all over the LGBT community donates to a cause hosted by a very pro LGBT company? o.O I'm honestly surprised there's one in MA at all. I remember when the late Mayor Menino told them to screw when they wanted to open a location in Boston.

    To that one Team Member I - ARCHIVED

    To my ETLs: What exactly is the plan for me at this point? I was told to take care of AG stations, batteries, and gift cards at the beginning of the season. I've been left alone to my own devices and I haven't heard a single word, bad or good, about what's going on or how I'm doing with it. A...

    TTOG Gross Stories Edition: How did you get the poop three feet above the toilet? Just... how? Did you assume the position and cannon fire into the wall?

    Archived Worst products ever...

    Tsum Tsum. Every shelf label. Tsum Tsum Tsum Tsum Tsum Tsum. That is what it looks like when the person who programs the labels gives the f_ck up.

    Archived Amplified Gifiting: Take two

    I got assigned to this bullsh@t without so much as a "Hey, Zone". Here's what Spot needs to consider if they ever plan to do this crap again. 1) Flow Team goes Overnight. This is non-negotiable. My store kept them at 4 AM process (2 AM on double trucks). I cannot do POG fills on 20 of these...

    Archived Brickseek?

    I've had people tell me to look in the electronics security cage for stuff because Brickseek. Like, oddly specific about it's EXACT LOCATION in my store. I had to tell him that stuff in the cage wasn't properly checked in yet and the receiver already went home. I had to tell another guy that...

    Archived Having only use of one hand and having to Spiderwrap

    I'll try tomorrow and see what happens. Just out of curiosity, which hand can't I use? Edit: I'm going to try to mimic your abilities to best of mine, so knowing the mechanics as best as you can describe will help me help you.

    Wait. My store wasn't the only one to acquire sentience a few weeks ago?

    Archived Free Pokemon Code?

    Be careful posting the codes publicly. A caveat to posting promotional codes is that internet bots scour websites using thread keywords like "Pokemon Code" or "Giveaway". The codes posted so far could be used up within minutes of posting them just so some shmuck can make a dollar or two.

    To that one Team Member I - ARCHIVED

    To that one cashier, what the actual hell is up with you? You want to say hi to me? Okay. Asking me if I'm going on break? Why else am I buying a snack in my work clothes and encumbered with a Zebra, Electronics keys, a walkie, and wearing a name badge... Then you went into full saleswoman mode...
