    Archived Allergic Reaction

    I dont know if its just me or something that happens on occasion. When I started on flow team I would wear short sleeve shirts and would notice as I got home that my arms would get rashes and hives. I put witch hazel on them and took a shower and would start to clear up until I went to work...

    Archived new shift hours

    I'm hearing from the truck team that TMs are going to have to work 8am-4pm on truck days....and if they (TMs) aren't able to change their availability they're going to lose their jobs? It is the STL saying that they'll lose their jobs. Seems kind of fishy to me.....I suggested TMs call the...

    Archived Feeling Like I’ve Been Run Off

    I don’t want to change jobs at this point in my life, but I’m finally fed up. Business is booming, freight flow is up, and metrics are good. I had maybe 52 hours between the past two schedules. Every time we get cut back hard, freight just hangs out for eons. I work in consumables, and we have...

    Archived How many trucks and how big does your store average?

    Title says it all. Wondering what size and how many trucks your store averages. For us it's usually two trucks a night. Each ranges from 1900 - 2400. We also take three trucks at times at our store. What about you?

    Logistics The Flow/Inbound thread: Until We Yeet Again edition 🤙

    Couldn't find a similar thread so I made one. Flow general thread. Flow is kinda my path to Zen. I come in early before the store opens, don't have to use my brain at all (it's not functioning anyway) and the flow TL/ETL-LOG is a great leader and chill to work with. I've had many retail jobs...

    Archived Is there a case for overstocking?

    I formed my personal opinion on overstocking a while ago: it's stupid, right? And yet, I continue to see good TMs shove those extra few items in, much to my bewilderment. So I'm here to ask: Am I missing something..? I understand that you can make the argument: it saves someone a minute or two...

    Archived How can I check through WorkBench how many trucks we're getting a week?

    Before I would go to Trailer Forecasting Tool, and it would show me the coming trucks two weeks in advance. However, ever since November it only shows the food trailers, where can see the RDC ones?
