...year's shitshow to the new leadership for contingency plans and better backroom preparation were promptly ignored. They're getting their just deserts now though. *shrug* Lack of training and good leadership is hitting hard right now. omfg I can't even imagine. 😩 I hope your inbound team is...

Sounds like you need to discover the joy of everyday life.

I probably don't do a good job at going out of my way to introduce myself to new people but that's mostly because this time of year... buried in freight and trying to dig out. completely exhausted That said, I'm more than happy to help someone or show them the proper way to do something if I...

My store doesn't have the exact same issues but the overall chaos you're describing? Yes, unfortunately. Unfinished freight, several hours of stocking before unload? Yes and yes. An unload should NEVER happen with only 3 TMs, especially with these larger trucks. It has happened at my store...

It happens. I've been clocking out for the day before only to be asked if I'd be willing to come in early tomorrow for a "surprise" double. 🤣

Or show up for ALL shifts, work really hard and still get your hours cut. 😬

Some questions for those that feel modernization is working for your store. Are trucks completed everyday? Which areas lag behind? (this includes flats of repacks for HBA, Domestics, Stationary, etc.) Does every department of your store have a DBO? Does your store have TMs to fill in on the...

Same. :(

My last holdout, old school ETL is now gone. Every ETL from 18 months ago is now replaced (a few positions have turned over twice). These people in leadership have no idea about the magnitude of the bomb about to drop in 4Q. They are either new to Spot or came from lower volume stores and...

Leadership is burning bridges like crazy with experienced TMs. Even with new hires lately, I've seen the optimism and energy sucked out of them in a few weeks so I'm not really sure what the long term plan is. Extremely high turnover and running your business with perpetually under-trained and...

A completely normal Saturday. And my store will struggle.

Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. My leaders are barely ready for tomorrow let alone Black FUCKING Friday.

My store is probably 80/20 in favor of jeans.

As would I, but it's a bit harder to fully conceptualize to your average cnn.com reading non-employee the ripple effect of cutting a team like plano or price change really has.

Modernization Issue # 397: One call out can sink a department now. One cashier in the morning misses a shift, and suddenly you only have one lane or just self check out available for several hours resulting in angry Karen posts on the official Facebook page. One call out on for truck unload can...

It's kinda funny how this rule is so totally ignored a lot of the time, even though it goes back like 8-10 years. No more shopping carts for cardboard, no more carts for backstock. No more carts for plano team. You'd get yelled at for having a cart in the backroom. Now-a-days I'll see guest...

lmao we don't even have enough uboats to unload a truck.

*Unflattering article on modernization* Team Member: See? This is what we've been dealing with! Maybe now corporate will change thei... Corporate: THE BEATINGS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES

Yuuuup. It was super enlightening to see how little my SD knew about the various areas of the store. When my store switched over from the Log ETL making the flow schedule to the STL, we had one truck last year where we literally only had 2 TMs scheduled for unload because they knew nothing about...

I believe part of modernization was that the SD was suppose to have a greater hand/total control in scheduling. I think they're allowed input from ETLs and HR but essentially, the buck stops with them. At least that is how things have worked at my store since last year.
