They fit in front of the end caps almost perfectly.
Absolutely not. We get enough unworked push as it is. Us electronics TMs usually get half a cart at least, and there are often 5 or 6 unworked hardlines pallets in electronics alone, let alone the rest of the store. Flow needs to be on the floor working freight, not on a register.
We take the end off of one side, and tuck them under the steel, when they are emptied (similar to flats)I noticed a pallet with parts for a bunch more U-Boats. I HATE how people empty a u-boat and just leave it somewhere around the line. Put it back on the line!!!! It’s already hard enough to get the stacker around but it seems like I can’t get to a pallet these days without having to move a couple u boats.
This sounds awful. I can get by without a cage or a tub for trash (stuff it into a repack I've emptied), but to take care of my trash and back stock before I can bring out another u-boat seems ridiculous. Doing it all in one fell swoop makes so much more sense. But then, what am I thinking? Spot doesn't make sense!You’re going to be made to use only one vechicle for back stock, trash. You’ll have no more trash cages or tubs on the floor. We’ve already gotten rid of all of our trash cages. And yes it’s an absolute mess.
Day 4 update, I can only just laugh.First day doing the new unload process and start times.
The 6 people unloading seemed pissed that it takes so long.
Softlines on the back wall of electronics and down the luggage until 10. A guest forced his way through a pallet to look at Blu-ray players. We offered to get someone to move the pallet but he declined. The stuff on the back wall was removed at 10 when softlines came to break out, but the stuff on the luggage aisle was still there at 11:30 when I left.
Team members with dedicated areas were annoyed at leaders wanting to zone other areas of the store before working on their own especially since they are all now responsible for their pulls, zone, push, and back stock.
Hours were cut this week but at least two people that I know of were asked to extend their shifts.
This is going to be interesting.
This is awesome! I think maybe the leaders trying to have team members do other things while they are supposed to be pushing is one of the things fucking them over. That and not allocating enough hours. They cut hours prior to this week but at least 4 people that I know of with a dedicated area has had to stay over and to be honest it pisses me off because my hours got cut! The trash on the floor all day is part that gets to me the most. I took a picture but I won't upload it until I can get it and take my location off of it.I thought for sure that my store would struggle with a change to 6am but suprisingly we have really had a successful week thus far. I feel like it creates a sense of urgency when we here 'team we will be openning in 30 minutes' we also have non flow scheduled in flow for an hour which makes a huge difference! We could have 1 person for four hours or 4 people for one hour! Of course there's a lot more hustle to get extra pallets and trash off the floor but the truck is getting done without adding hours.

No one works clean or cares to so there is trash and clutter on the floor at 4pm and guests have to maneuver around it.
Unload took approximately 3.5 hours to finish.
People look defeated trying to get everything done. Trucks have been rolling for departments it didn’t use to roll for.
How long until people start to quit or just give up?
Market has been like this for over a year at my store and now with the hour changes it has gotten worse over there which I didn't think was possible. I was told by one of them that they have only come clean 2 times since they switched to their new process over a year ago.Haha, Market has been like this for a while now. Welcome to hell.

Is everyone launching Drive Up next week?We move to the new process next week along with adding drive up. AND they’re trying to remodel A+A during all of this. Morons.
Yes, that’s drive up. You must have been a pilot store or somewhere with an earlier roll out of the process.Drive Up is the thing that makes the Zebras go HONK HONK right? We've had that for a couple weeks now
We’ve had it for a month. Our spots are not even that close to the front doors. I actually fear a team member is going to get hit one day. Meanwhile another Target in the area has the spots right in front of their damn doors.Is everyone launching Drive Up next week?
Our spots are almost next to the team member ones so I have the same fear. Especially since I’ve seen local teens pulled over by the PD for blowing through the store’s stop sign clocking 50 mph.Our spots are not even that close to the front doors. I actually fear a team member is going to get hit one day.
