Okay guys flow has some slow and lazy team members just like the backroom, salesfloor, instocks and everywhere else. Teamleads and execs that interview ans pass the job applicants through to flow basically because they are breathing are partly to blame. If many of you saw what the goal time is for flow and what they are given in hours to do it, you might be surprised. Our stocking goal, based on the number of people we have scheduled is usually around 1:30. However daily we are scheduled no later than 11. Most of the days we come completely clean some days we don't. On the days when our trucks are 2800 and we have 4 calloffs, we will ask for help. Usually we just ask if we can help blitz toys we will be good. But let's think about how flow also helps out the other teams. Flow will take care of the 10 or more carts of reshop that is left almost daily. The flow teams are trying to stock while they are zoning the store in the morning because often the evening zone looks like it hadn't been touched the night before. I get so tired of hearing how flow is awful, they are lazy, they are the dregs of humanity. But how many of you change your schedule at a moments notice? Hey guys they want to add a truck, we need you to be here tomorrow. Oh geez guys no truck, you won't have your hours tomorrow. We have a double, forget the appointments you made for the day you will be here until we are done. We have 4 call offs, just do your best we can't call anyone in at 4am. The simple fact is that if flow is broke, so is your store. Pass some of the blame on your leaders if they are not managing the team they are suppose to be leading. We all work for Target and we get paid if we are stocking shelves or zoning or cashiering (yes my flow team responds to back ups). Sorry if I sound preachy but I am really REALLY tired of hearing the weekly bash flow rant.
