So I finished up the Bounce back for my backroom today. Some observations:
1) Why does the label paper (that cost $1 a page) never align with the barcodes towards the bottom of the sheet?
2) I've been ordering the shorter WACOs for the cooler/freezers for two months with no luck. None of the nearby stores have them either to trade. I'm thinking of making my own out of trashed cardboard boxes...
3) Did the area with the most work needed have to be the friggin' freezer?
4) Ever have one of the 4 foot aisle shelves fall on you? Even worse, ever spent 15 minutes trying to get that bastard back in the grooves only to realize the entire shelf system is torqued?
5) Why can't the rolling ladders go straight instead of bumper car into the second shelf labels I just replaced?
6) Why am I the only BR person who understands what grouping is and how to do it correctly?
7) Anyone else discover that 80% of your backroom is profiled wrong? how about half of your aisles randomly start the "A" section on the wrong side?
8) Anyone find any old product hidden or lost? I found a version of Parallels version 3 under a bottom shelf. Also found a collector's edition nascar die cast toy from the late 90's.
9) Any injuries? While sweeping out trash from empty WACOs, I cut my hand on an old rust blade. Another TM did the same on some broken glass in HOME/PLUG.
10) Notice that the zone and drops only last 24 hours before case packs are back on the top shelf in the rear of the aisle.
11) Electronics scan. Should have waited until AFTER that to do the Electronics Stockroom.
12) My worst non-freezer aisle was HBO. Any other bad ones?
Glad it's over. can't wait for inventory which comes right in the middle of BTS every year to do this all again.
