    Archived "Acknowledging Every Guest" Rule

    The "acknowledging every guest" affects the Net Promoter Score (NPS), hence the recent focus on greeting all guests. It's a habit / routine for me in Market (which goes back to when "the Vibe" was rolled out).

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Sold 91 turkeys today (they were pre-ordered -- and 89 of them were Market Pantry!).

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    C+S arrived late Friday, so I wasn't able to really push much produce before I had to clock out (around 1:45pm). I had some unexpected help from someone added to the C+S team who started 12:00pm (to do a 4-hour shift). He said he could finish the two pallets before his shift ended. Okay. On...

    They did the milk transition at my store yesterday, and it looked nice and full -- lots of Silk Cashew Milk (Plain, Chocolate, and Vanilla). Today's C+S meat pallet featured five boxes of new meats -- I suppose they're going to be doing a revision in meat soon (what with the "Manager's...

    Archived Orientation: Are You The Only One Left?

    I was hired with a group of a dozen or so cashiers (I was the only hardlines TM hired) almost two years ago -- and I'm the only one left. The HR person that led the orientation is gone. All of the original ETLs that were there when I started are all gone except for one (she was hired a month...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Well today was interesting. MyDevices weren't working, and I couldn't get a hold of a PDA until after 11. So I couldn't check the counts / on-hands on the sales floor to prepare for the order. I had to rush to finish SDA before noon -- didn't help that I had 25 items to check (of course)...

    On Monday, C+S was late by 2 hours. When it arrived, our backroom TMs were on lunch, so I had to unload the truck. I found out that our meat pallet was delivered to another store by mistake. Great -- no ground turkey (or eggs), but thankfully C+S sent us a few extra boxes of ground beef the...

    Archived Closing Market Duties

    Are you shooting outs and having the backroom for you? If that's the case, you will use the "fill" option on MyDevice -- you scan the product and count how many are on the floor, and the MyDevice will calculate how many are needed to fill the floor location. Keep doing this on the floor until...

    Archived Buying stuff off the clock

    When I got to work at around 4:20AM, I saw a three or four people camped out for whatever was going on sale this morning. At first, I thought it was some homeless folks camped out, but when I got close to the door, it dawned on me what they were there for (listening to their conversation and...

    It's on a refrigerated endcap, and some vendor (I forget which one) fills it.

    Beauty Advisors

    We have one at our store (I forgot exactly what her title is -- I'll have to check on that tomorrow), but it is an outsourced position, and she wears black. She splits time between our store and another one close by.

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    Thanks for the info. It's been hard getting a hold of a mydevice (or any equipment, for that matter), and when I actually do, it's usually straight to 1) SDA, 2) shoot outs, and 3) do the order, and maybe 4) back stock produce before the battery dies out, and I never get the chance to check...

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    When I did the order on Wednesday, I noticed that I couldn't order any of the Archer Farms bagged vegetables (except the asparagus) -- are those now store ordered like the bagged salads? On another matter, I mentioned that my store recently went CTL-less and that I had my workload tripled. As...

    The guardrails do exist. If you go over them, something pops up on the Mydevice screen asking if your on-hand amounts and/or sales forecasts are wrong. I'll have to take a screenshot of that when I do the order on Monday.

    Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

    My old CTL recently transferred to another store. A senior HLTL took over the CTL position about a month ago. It looked like he got things moving in the right direction, when suddenly he was fired at the beginning of this week. Now my Pfresh team is down to five TMs -- me (the opener), a PA...
