Reshop/Abandons/Go-backs?

[TLSpot]

Is the difference in the word for items that were found left by guests in the wrong place (e.g. reshop, go-backs, abandons) regional? Or is it based on time spent with the company? I’m curious as to why we use different words for it. To clarify, they’re abandons where I am.

 

[Far from newbie]

Been ‘ reshop ‘for 14 years where I am. Sometimes we acquire some seasonals (with a history of the blue vest place ) that use other words.

We mainly call it go backs here. Also "strays" gets tossed in once in awhile.

It's shit you have to put back where it belongs.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

Reshop at my store.

Reshop, go-backs, abandoneds, shopper's remorse, crap-that-people-can't-be-bothered-to-put-back.....it's all the same.

 

[Yetive]

Always been reshop for us.

Anyone have different terms for zoning? Recovering or conditioning are 2 I've heard from other places.

At my store we call it abandoned. I worked at another store in town and they call it reshop/stray.

Our new Group VP sent out an expectations email the other week and referred to it as "zoning". I'm under the impression zoning is THE term if you're using Target vocabulary

Facing. A term Walgreens used when I was in college to turn all bottles facing forward.

Zoning is the verb for making the aisle look pretty

 

[sunnydays]

if it's on the salesfloor it's stray, if it's at guest services it's reshop =]

This is how my store does it.

Yes, the comment I replied to was asking if there were any other terms used for zoning in particular.

 

[GRC]

Everyone at my store calls it reshop. Never heard anyone call it anything else.

 

[DatBoi9497]

In our district we're supposed to call them returns, but most people still call it reshop just like we still use softlines/hardlines/grocery lingo

 

[Anelmi]

We call it abandon or go-backs. Zoning is pushing the product to the front.

 

[Black Sheep 214]

Most people call it re-shop or go-backs here, but when the LOD used to have to walk through the store with a cart and grab things that customers left in the wrong places they called those abandons. There were always a few folks who called it what most of it was, *$&@# crap...😂

 

[happygoth]

Reshop here.

At Sears we called them returns, and zoning was called straightening.

Push is the term I found the most unusual when I was first hired. At Sears we called it stock, as in "I'm going to put out some stock".

Edit: why would somebody downvote this? Lmao
