Huh. Not happening at my store.

Would SO want a video of that...if they ever take away our cages I will HULK THE FUCK OUT.

When I was putting change in the SCO I was tieing up the SCO so it wasn't available for our guests.
And if nothing else he always falls back to the old reliables: there was lines at the lanes, or he saw someone not actively selling, or the oldie but goodie...the zone.
Our DTL seems to be focusing on "crisp folds" now
Anyone have advice for Softlines for finishing truck push and everything else? Store gets 5 trucks/week with 1600-2600 pieces and 150-350 repacks. Told we’re properly scheduled and all push should be finished along with reshop and price changes but we don’t finish push when we’re buried under reshop. Also how can we be staffed exactly the same on truck days but also be staffed correctly for the size of the truck which is always different? ETL & STL keep saying we’re not working hard enough and should be able to finish everything everyday because “other stores are doing it”. Hoping one of those “other stores” has some insight that could help!

@bullseye Babe-At our store, we would have been proud of you efficiently using your time. We expect people to take care of things during the slow times as we all know Spot is not giving us enough payroll for all the crap they want us to do (storewide training, OPU, speak to each guest, etc.). This is where what Spot wants us to do in theory vs what it takes to do it in actuality differ. Being part of countless walks, I can tell you that the PMT manager stated something to the STL prior to meeting you about some deficiency in the store and the STL was nervous as crap. Store leadership has so many things being thrown at them, it is almost not worth the 100+k salary (or 50-70k as ETLs). If you do get CA, write it down in a log. Keep the log and your point of view of why you were taking care of SCO. Be as specific as possible. Then bring it up with your ETL about expectations and what s/he expect of you. Write down their expectations of you. Then (6 months later), when you are coached (even spoken to, maybe not even coached) again 6+ months down the road for doing the opposite (e.g. not having stocked the SCOs during non-peak hours during a visit (or something similar)), point out the inconsistencies in leadership and your expectations. I promise you it will happen. I have done this before showing how expectations change almost now on a daily basis and now no one gives me sh*t ever.Thanks you guys. I honestly feel better after reading your replies. I'll keep trying and I still love my job. This forum helps me in so many ways and I really appreciate you all.
