My store doesnt do this. A call out is a call out as far as they're concerned.

You would think. Im trained in cashier/softlines/fitting room/hardlines/SFS/presentation/price accuracy/instocks with complete open availability and have still gotten 20ish hours a week.

This. Recently a bunch of scooters were stacked up on. the. highest. shelf. Like stacked four-high. I asked a flow guy to help me because I needed one for SFS. He looked at me kinda funny. I also have a hard time with anything heavy that is high up, since getting down the ladder with that kinda...

Yes this. My store has/has had a number of tms and more who are LGBT and they are great workers and coworkers. No need to insult an entire group of people.

No papers or anything at my store. I just kept getting scheduled. I don't think anyone was let go then (2014 holiday season) except maybe a couple, who only wanted seasonal work.

THIS. I'm good at "getting it done." I can backstock, take care of pogs/VAs and price change, and push the truck in record time, among other things. I'm not comfortable selling things. I'm currently on my way out of Spot and this is one of the reasons. I don't like what my job has turned into.

Agree with you there. Is that who's on the A&A team at your stores? We don't have a lot of people but I believe the majority are mid-20s on up. The younger ones don't work often and they rarely if ever are in the backroom.

Definitely something up with your SL leadership. I'm in an A volume store and we rarely if ever do not come clean on truck push on any given day. Maybe once a month if that. Somebody's gotta be doing something wrong.

At my store, we stay until the zones and reshop are done. It could be 15 minutes past close, it could be two hours past close. Doesn't matter. Sometimes softlines and hardlines need to help eachother depending on the hardest hit zones. I've been at my store as late as 2am (12am close)...

Interesting. Just walking around trying to sell stuff is not the way we do things at my store. Everybody has to do something while engaging with guests when possible. I would definitely ask for more training, since there won't always be guests to interact with.

So what ARE you doing when you are in softlines? If this is going to be a regular thing, I would talk to your SL etl/tl about getting trained on reshop, zoning, truck, etc.

Coverage can be next to impossible for areas like electronics and fitting room, but it does depend on who's on shift. I worked a shift with people who were not comfortable covering FRO and had to threaten in order to get coverage to take a meal break. I wasn't then arguing over a 15.

Find out for sure from your TL or HR if you hit compliance at 5 hours 45 minutes or 6 hours exactly. Then don't do it again.

If you are in a 6 hour state, then yes, as you would have to go to lunch before 12 noon. If a 5 hour state, you hit compliance.

This is correct.

Actually, no, we're good on reshop. Trucks this week however are ridiculous. My TL and I spent the first 3 hours of our shifts this morning breaking down 3 huge pallets' worth of boxes of both hanging and folded/basics items. Crazy.

I would do as @HRZone said and ask to have your paychecks mailed. They wouldn't release them to your mom or anyone else. I'm sorry to hear about your illness and wish you only the best. When you're well enough to have a job again, make sure you find out information about pay checks and tax...

Yep, if I'm there, I'm doing it. My ETL wanted me on the Thanksgiving/BF late-night/ON prep team, but couldn't because I do the scan on Wednesdays. Yet they do not schedule me appropriately for the scan. Coming in at 6 or 8 would be nice, and shift tagging me RFID (which they've done for the HL...

Haha guess who didn't get scheduled for the SL scan this week :) One of my TLs has to do it instead.

Oh wow. We don't have that many tms on our entire team. Typically we have 3-4 openers, maybe one mid, and 3-4 closers. And a lot of our tms do not work the FR anyway. We'd never get truck or backstock done let alone reshop if we had to take turns in the FR.
