    Day in the Life Fulfillment Ops TL

    Well, it's been over a year since I was in fulfillment and a lot has changed in that time. I'm really not up on the current goings on. I will say that training is key and fulfillment TMs need to be steered into asking questions before hitting INF. Just yesterday, I watched as a TM came into...

    TL Behaviors - Improvement of Leadership

    I don't have that kind of time. I did recently happen to know that my TL had flexed out a shit ton of throw pillows without locating them so fulfillment inevitably INF'd several of them. I was asked to do those suspect tasks. Bad idea, TL, bad idea. Not my area. Those all went to 0.

    SETL VS GMTL

    Not cool. You should discuss what happened offstage with the SETL. If that isn't productive, talk to your ETL about it. Your areas, your directions. I'm not a TL, but this seems like an obvious thing to me.

    Other closing leads struggling?

    I don't mind not making a bale during the unload. What does drive me crazy is when all of former PP1 (Now, just GM) leaves without making a bale. Then former PP2 (Now Style - Home & Seasonal) comes in and we have to make the first bale of the day. I mean really? I haven't tossed a single piece...

    Other closing leads struggling?

    Speaking for my store. There are plans. There just isn't payroll or bodies to execute the plans. Even if by some miracle the salesfloor has everybody it needs, fulfillment and the front end need constant backup. Shit's all fucked up. We're a lowish mid-volume store. We're now at 7,000 DPCIs that...

    TL Behaviors - Improvement of Leadership

    Nada Call out and piss on out of my area. Incorrectly set pogs. Flex product out without store-tying it and setting capacities. Whine. The man whines all the time about his workload and then bitches at any TM who complains about their own workload. Constantly talk shit about other TLs who...

    My Interim ETL is a train wreck

    We had an interim ETL right at the beginning of modernization to cover the normal ETL's maternity leave. Guy was fresh out of college. It was a reign of absolute stupid over the entire store. The guy honestly believed that a single seasonal DBO should be able to not only set all of BTS, but also...

    At the end of my rope. Rant/advice for a struggling inbound TL

    Interesting. The push in my store right now is that we don't have enough DBOs who know or are capable of doing everything, so how do we teach those we can and replace those who can't learn. There is no chatter about unraveling modernization except from disgruntled TMs.

    At the end of my rope. Rant/advice for a struggling inbound TL

    Modernization isn't over? At least not everywhere. It's definitely still THE WAY in my district. The only deviation is a new pricing TM for GM.

    New P1 TL needing advice

    Is it? What's the area? How much packaging is in those cases? How much of that "push" is backstock? What's the state of the zone going into the push and is the TM fixing zone issues as she goes along?

    New P1 TL needing advice

    Get up. Get, get, get down. Push time's a joke in yo town. I said, get up. Get, get, get down. Push time's a joke in yo town. I'm pretty sure that's how that Public Enemy song went.

    What power does the SD have for off the clock events?

    He's probably not only hungover, but suffering from blue balls because the TL he wanted to date rejected him at the party. And he has a migraine from the SD yelling at him this morning. Give him a day or two.

    I'm losing my team and I don't know what to do.

    Your job isn't just to manage. It's also to facilitate. If coporate goal times are being pushed on your DBOs, then you need to be frank with leadership about how realistic and unrealistic they are. It shouldn't be a shock that your stationary and kitchen DBOs want the fuck out. Official push...

    Jesus fucking Christ. This guy.

    Does this hurt my chances at becoming a leader?

    I for one hope CartoonPenguin never stops posting here. These are the best threads.

    Do I have any say in the next TL promotion?

    To be real honest here, maybe he thinks you are a shit TL unworthy of his respect? That might be on you more than it's on him. I don't know. Look in the mirror and decide for yourself. Personally, I have a shit TL unworthy of respect. I am very stoic and unemotionless when talking to him...

    Being in development and having a crush on a team member.

    Oh God, he's back. Throw a zebra at her head to let her know you're interested.

    ETL MPM Access

    Zebras are Android. So in a way you're right. Target apps run like shit on Zebras. But, in a way your trolling here is so far off it's funny.

    Inbound questions... again

    This is where my store differs. Home uses metros for secondary sort and pulls. Everyone at my store has learned that I will raise hell if they so much as think about using my kitchen metro without asking me first. We have some market people who prefer U-boats for their pulls even in Pfresh...
