[BigEyedPhish]

Right? I don't think the style team knows what they signed up for...

Funny, Style Team?

You're allowed overnight?

For a remodel? Yeah... they kind of have to tear the store apart at night...

PMT, PPTL and I did TV wall reset yesterday.

GOD it was so nice and quiet before the TVs all came back on

So I'm transferring stores in a little over a week, and all the ETLs knew about this in Feb. when I gave them my last day, and they just hired the replacement signing person and gave me 3 days to train them and have them up to speed. Anyone have any suggestions on how to do that?

I think half the cancelled orders they do because so many people order that item they temporarily take them off SAP assuming most people will forget to try ordering the item again. I've had that happen on a few items before. Or they are just jerks.

When they cancel or reduce my orders, I copy every line from the automatic email into a my support and ask them to add it back to my order. They always do it unless the sign was actually really truly cancelled.

Print any order guides that you can find, show them SAP and mySupport, walk them through breaking down a pallet and show them how you organized everything in your area. Maybe take a quick walk around the store and give any pointers that come to mind as you pass certain aisles.

So my First week I am on Remodel (overnight for 6 weeks) )(Home Innovaton + A&A 2.0). Is when our Early Set BTC/BTS sets, apparently my workload for that week is 61 Hours.

This doesn't include any of my Remodel Workload.

Overtime please?

This will get interesting...

Pffffft. Bts is 68hrs of signing, I got 28.5 as usual and the suggestion to pre- build what I could the week before with any extra time I had.

You might have one more Focal than we will Set, my store is more BTC (SuperFreaky)

The dump bins for BTS look different than years past, but not easier. The focals look just as awful as I remember them being last year. So glad I am not early set! Bad enough to hear, "Back to school already!?" every 5 seconds when we set in July.

That is why BTS is my least favorite set. I have had guests bitching at me just because we're are setting it "too early"

 

[oath2order]

"the total sign length is 30 ft"

Fuck you corporate I'm cutting the damn kites in half

Does anyone know how to order just 9 inch peghooks? I have fastbacks and label holders coming out of my ears, so I don't want to order the full kit.

I don't know if that's possible

Auditing planos during the remodel is no fun. I've just hit domestic bedding aisles and its not even close to being 100%.
