My store ain't that big, friend 😂

My TL literally told me "This is what they made me give you and I don't agree with it at all. I've worked side by side with you and I know better." I also had both ETLs for those review seasons quit because of the same STL I had for both of the shitty reviews and one of those ETLs is a reference...

We have a Starbucks + Market TL (no cafe at our store) and she rocks it. She is lucky enough to have a particularly great TM that can run Starbucks when she's not at Starbucks, and a great TM that can run Market when she's not at Market.

Essentials?

So how many GM leads are there going to be? I know that A&A, Beauty, Electronics, and Market aren't going to be considered GM. Are they going to have individual TLs? I was assuming we'd have fewer. Softlines is already supposed to be sorted like that. My softlines sort team still sucks at it...

Yeah, my STL isn't smart enough to see it that way.

They are changing a lot of the structure of leadership soon. Like at the beginning of 2019. They wouldn't even consider putting me on the bench until then because they weren't sure what was happening, whether they would have more TL positions or less than what they currently have. Give it a...

Yet another reason to be glad I'm not on truck anymore.

That being said, if there isn't a position open, you won't be made one any time soon. My leadership won't even put me "on the bench" for Team Lead right now, because they don't know what's going to happen with the TL number with the leadership restructuring that's happening in January/February.

But I also heard they're getting a pay bump. SrTLs, that is. I mean, I'm not sure when it was supposed to happen, and how this will affect it, but if not, at least they'll still get the 40 hours a week. $15/hr is great...if you get scheduled more than 25 hours a week...which I don't always do.

Yeah, I told one of my ETLs I was interested in being a TL but definitely not a SrTL because I don't need that much stress and she laughed and said "Wise decision" 😂

Definitely speak to an TL or ETL that you feel comfortable with first, even if they aren't necessarily your immediate supervisor. Technically, my ETL is the ETL-SF and my TL is the SrTL-SF, but so far, I've discussed it with the ETL-log because she's the one that I have a better rapport with.

Lol, he hasn't been here a year yet and I'm sure he could tell you some stories 😂 I think our store is a little cursed...I just hope 2019 is a lot less crazy.

Oh, he wasn't happy about it. The "certified" plumber he had to call in took 14 hours to do a job that should have taken 30 minutes.

Uh...ASANTS, but our PMT wasn't allowed to do a certain plumbing job at our Starbucks because he isn't a certified plumber. Insurance wouldn't have covered it if something had gone wrong, apparently.

My TLs usually only take the 31 minutes. And they leave their walkies on in case they're needed. Especially the PMT. I'm not a TL, but I leave mine on because I've been needed during breaks/lunches because softlines is its own circle of hell.
