...for me to move on. I was with Spot for over four years and before I got sick I had hopes of advancing. I watched several TMs get promoted over me and they fell flat on their faces. I was on a medical LOA for a good chunk of last year and actually qualified for disability so when I came back I...

Electronics/MMB are getting remodeled. Good thing especially since our camera boat is a pile of garbage. Starbucks/Cafe are getting a minor remodel. Our SB is one of the only ones in the district without a warming oven. CVS is getting a new next door neighbor: Optical! I'm not a fan of where...

I've either been a participant in or a creator of threads where I say I'm going to quit, but I'm too lazy to search. A few months ago our ETL-AP (who got smart and quit) and STL did an inventory of our MyDevices and linked serials to numbers on the equipment log. As a result, of this teams who...

Recently our store bumped its start rate to the upcoming minimum wage in my state. Since I'm at N05 I am making $.25 more than that. However, this is the second time that my raise has been wiped out due to this. The first time my $.35+ raise got wiped out when I got raised to the start rate...

So I met up with the LOD today to do our team's required status session with them. She was having a conversation with a group of friends (which is NONE of my business) until I hear the words from one of them "So you're interviewing me *later*, right? words words words "It's pretty much a...

So we were having a nice and normal Monday at our store. The rest of my price change team left leaving me to pick up the slack of being four days in the red. I went on my break and then proceeded to head to the backroom to survey the hundreds of re-tickets were sitting in carts waiting for me...

I've essentially been treading water for the past couple of years at Spot, learning how to be a "Global" team member. I've held leadership positions at our competitors and really want to make some more money. The job market is tough in my area, so the obvious choice is to look within. So.... I...

I had to go back in to my store today to check something on eHR that couldn't wait until my next shift. After I was done, I picked up a few things and was waiting in line to check out when I struck up a convo with the guest in front of me about her Sodastream. I mentioned how much it saved me on...

We had a big BTS hiring push and now we're starting up seasonal (and they aren't getting drug tested o_O) , so our salesfloor team is flush with new people. They started clamping down on everyone's hours to the point that it is affecting me personally. Usually, I can pull 3 full shifts between...

I just looked at JAS for open positions at our neighbor store (at home, so I obviously didn't apply) and there is a SFTL position available. I'm about to hit 2 years with Spot and in the past few months I've shown that I want to take on more responsibilities. I have oodles of department...

It's still August, and there is plenty of time to consider putting in that notice, but don't worry....

So, how do I tell someone that I could do the job better than them without being rude? Backstory: Our electronics TL was put in charge of instocks for some reason, therefore he has delegated most of his responsibilities away. We have someone who focuses on MMB and supposedly someone who is...

Same DPCI and everything. I think the right one showed up in an ad correct stack but it took three tries to get it right.

I hear/see a lot of things going on, but I'm totally baffled about what you actually have to do to get CCA these days. Here are a few things that I've noticed in my store: 24% complete comp shop/not submitted before deadline PFresh order not done before deadline Call out at least 15 times...

I don't know if this is the same in other stores but it seems like there is a gap in communicating to TLs that they have interviews to conduct. When I was covering operator there was always calls by applicants asking why they hadn't got their call yet. Reminds me of the first day after I...

My Spot week has been a total disaster. 1.) Had to come in Monday morning to do price change so we could process dollar spot salvage. Monday is my normal comp shop day. 2.) Had to do comp shop on Wednesday. That is my normal price change day. 3.)Thought I'd be nice and come in on Thursday to...

So, I have THREE (3) consecutive days off next week. I also have enough vacation time to make use of those days. Now, here is the issue with that: 1.) I don't know if the ad will get prepped (I'm not scheduled for it since my hours were given away). 2.) I have to finish comp shop by the time I...

<RANT> I've been pulling 30+ hours since before the holidays, and right now between everything I do I am as close to 40 as they will let me get most weeks. Typically I work 6 days every week (4 hours Sunday AM, then the rest of the day off), but now.... HR tells me that there is a TM coming...

We had a smart huddle in PFresh today. Usually it is a push party but today we actually did a freshness pull. Conveniently, I had an expired smoothie this morning for my 6AM break (that's what I get for not checking my own dates) so I knew that it wasn't the only thing in there. Long after...
