    Locked up laundry detergent?

    I'm not really sure about more opu/SFS, as I haven't worked for spot in a few years. Foot traffic is wayyy down, definitely not enough to make up the difference with online orders. Last time I was there the call buttons weren't working? Multiple guests were yelling for stuff to be unlocked...

    Best "I Told You So" Moment

    It was around BTC. I was on instocks (RIP). We were out of tide. We were supposed to have combo pallets of it. I told all of my leaders that it is probably getting sent to a store with a similar number. 1 hellish week later; my etl and TL start calling stores. Mysupport is of course useless...

    Target attendance petition

    Thank God chicago has sick time. If your area has a sick pay rule, ask to use it to cover your absence. At least in chicago they cannot deny the claim/and or discipline you for it. Of course this will vary wildly depending on where you work.

    In the news

    We started leaving opens in front as samples. We would also defect out quips, and cotton rounds. Saved a ton of money, but this was pre-covid. Haven't worked for spot in awhile

    What Qualities Do You Like To See In a SD

    The most important thing is to be seen working , not living in the office. Keeping clear open communication. Being human if something is fucked up its fucked up ( no kool-aid). Oh and never ask anybody to do something you wouldn't or couldn't do your self. All in all be a leader not a boss.

    Will it affect my hiring status??

    If they report it , it might show up on a background check. If that happens corporate retail would be a no-go.

    Code green during district visit?

    Had a woman assault another guest, and then moon the entire front end during a regional AP visit. The regional AP director helped escort her out . It was a fun day.
