I haven't worked in market in awhile I have been cashiering lately and was told this happended is this true and what is the new job title called for people who work in p fresh.
Well with the market rollout, they just have market team members that are all trained as a PA... But aren't actual pas. We have three tms that take care of three different parts of pfresh. We have a tm that takes care of fresh produce, one who takes care of dairy, one who takes care of frozen. That means each one takes care of qmosing, zoning, pushing the fdc truck. Same thing happens in dry market.
We lost one. No need for the position when you can just push work on a "trusted" lower paid TM.
It's a captain title with a raise
Yes. They do all of it, except deal with vendors, that's done by the market tl and always has been at my store. Instead of having one PA over the whole area, we essentially just have three Pa's over three different areas... Just didn't list of every single thing they do. Sorry for not being super in depth.PA does a lot more than just this,
- Do they Order Food?
- Do they correspond with Vendors on "opportunities" or coming events, and planning their sets, making a strategy around holidays?
- Do they set Sales Planners?
- Do they TPC product going out of date, or Coupon soon to be expired product?
- Do they make sure all the cleaning chemicals are up to code, filled, and in their proper place everyday?
Everything you describe in your post is what every..... every.. Market Team Member should have been doing since PFresh was first rolled out, this is nothing new.
Bingo. According to our org chart we are supposed to have two as well but we only have one.
I wonder if they are getting rid of Food Assistants via attrition. Not necessarily firing the ones we have but not hiring new ones and expecting CTMs to fulfill those very duties
Our receiver unloads the food truck and takes care of the paperwork with no assistance. A BRTM picks up the pallets from the dock and puts them into the coolers.- Do other stores leave the entire food truck receiving process to one TM/PA with no assistance from a TL or ETL?
Dry grocery will still come on the GM trailer and it won't be any more frequent than it is now (unless your store will be testing receiving palletized freight).Question #2 - Food and merchandise will still come on two different trucks, perhaps the back room and docks won't accommodate the activity?
