We haven't started that yet. Half of my PMBPs group only answer to him but my store doesn't. I'm still held to answer to my Log and STL and if you ever want to move up to ETL you need every ETLs approval in your store, so... Yeah. Plus my. PMBP has never, to my knowledge, challenged the STL. He...
With this new truck process rollout, the PMTs in my group literally did everything. Takedown, build, move merch, put up bars in softlines, rearrange shelves and now we have to paint everything in the backroom. The kick plates for God's sake. Just today my Log asked if I could paint over the...
Project62 and Halloween: where did all the gondola fixtures go?
TrimATree and HearthAndHand: Why do I have so much gondola fixtures?
Could have been planned better, but anyway, this week killed me with the Christmas and Magnolia sets in one week and a group visit. Through all of that, building...
Sugar Paper is a B, every year. But anyway....
Just jam em in there. Get up as many as you can. I try n do three rows per table. Some on either die with others sprinkled in the middle like the number 5 on a die. Checker pattern. Tall ones in the middle.
Tearing down Seasonal early because we have a visit on the first of Nov (Group Leader). So I get seasonal all set with gondolas needed and put all the extra fixtures on a flat and get ready to take it back to my storage trailer. The space I usually use to store my seasonal pallets on the storage...
Our signing tm took two days to build everything, but he’s new and our ETL HR was helping push with a soft lines tm today, and they still haven’t finished. We have a visit tomorrow so we did everything early. For you to get it done in 8 hours is beast!
I found the solution to keeping the fixture room clean... took me a while but once I got my LOG on board with my idea, it stayed clean for a looong time. I basically metal recycled anything the Plano team didn't bring back and then made sure my team was putting away our stuf. It was great until...
I've tried partnering with AP. That lasted a week. Then we had a visit and they flexed seasonal and dumped like 20 shelves on tubs in there and pegs in baskets. They tried to say it was presentation but I showed the STL the strips in the shelves. It didn't help... I've cleaned that room, myself...
I am sick and tired, physically and mentally, of my ETLs saying that I don't communicate enough with them. I distribute all the early set notes that come in and print and distribute the ones that don't. I keep the adjacencies and VAs organized and distribute extras. I even had two red board put...
So today I went in to get my season pass and soda. My store got 3 cases (36 bottles). I got there 5 min after it opened. Walk back to electronics, get my season pass and then I'm informed by the new electronics associate that all the bottles were purchased by a former employee who came in super...
No, my store was getting two trucks a day but they don't have the hours - go figure - or the people to do two trucks a day. We are low volume so it was kinda surprising that it happened. They were trying to give us 10 trucks for the week so 5 got canceled or something like that. So our merch has...
Yeah, good luck with that. The add says it's free with season pass but has a reg price of 2.99. So people are going to flip if you force them to get the season pass. And we had the same problem with someone trying to store pickup them. They came in to nothing tho. Lol. I brought out the box and...
Oh I'm ready. My store is a truck behind so the product hasn't even showed up and guests are already asking about it. Last time I brought out the box and stood there and watched as they all disappeared
