Especially the seasonal ones.Still waiting to see the inbound team members interacting with guests.
A seasonal employee won the one at our store.Dear Corporate-
Cool that your offering a $500 gift card this year to one lucky tm and $500 the charity of their choice but It's unfair to make seasonal tms qualify. If I had a dollar every time I heard "Customer" I'd have $500 by now....

Ain’t nobody got time for that.You know you change that right
It doesn't matter. I fought that battle. Research showed that quantity was either correct or one less than I could stuff on a peg, amount on the floor was usually right , give or take a couple, and yet there still was more on the floor than the maximum quantity as well as several in the push that was brought out. The computer knew how many could fit, knew that capacity had been reached and then some, and yet those same items were in the push every single day.You know you change that right

It's the old tbr waywhat do you mean i shouldn't bitch about something that only takes two seconds to fix?
That’s what I was told about pushing g 3 pallets of dairy by myself 8 hours later and still 4 massive uboats left.It doesnt take that long...
Corporate lurks and postsSince corporate may or may not lurk this site, I thought it would be useful to have a thread where people can share and vent, towards corporate. Kind of like the "to that one team member" thread. In this case, directly to the source.
I'll start....
Dear Corporate...
Please explain why I have 20 hours the week of BLACK FRIDAY!
They DO lurk, and, from what I've seen in recent months, ignore our issues.Since corporate may or may not lurk this site, I thought it would be useful to have a thread where people can share and vent, towards corporate.

You're talking about changing the capacity of an item on audit not pushing items. Literally different stuff but whateverThat’s what I was told about pushing g 3 pallets of dairy by myself 8 hours later and still 4 massive uboats left.
Bye.

It works for me, I dont know what its issue for you. Maybe use audit.
I've seen the same thing in other areas. Sometimes, I think those capacity numbers are just made up and then after we correct the capacity and the floor count, what shows up on our zebras isn't really real. I can't think of a good explanation for how some of this stuff works. Or more like how this stuff doesn't work.I fought that battle with men's basics for 3-4 months, research and check capacity and on floor quantity twice a week, no change in what came out. Ridiculous that quantity was 3 for a peg, 4 or 5 or even 6 on floor, and I had 8 more in the day's push. I gave up, but now that I'm doing more with baby hardlines I'm seeing the same thing, accurate for capacity and what's on the floor, but yet even more coming out of the backroom.
Ours tooA seasonal employee won the one at our store.
For us the capacity number is right. My work seems to know how much we should have and usually knows how much we do have, but still turns around and sends a stupid amount of the same item every day onto the floor. It's like the inventory program is not talking to the program that determines how much should be pulled. And this problem dates back at least two years, because that was when I started trying to clean up men's basics.I've seen the same thing in other areas.

I do know that. I change it constantly all day long. What I'm saying is that when the planogram is being designed by corporate, why are they unable to enter the correct salesfloor capacity? They obviously know the measurements of each item to determine shelf height and peghook placement. Yes it doesn't take long for me to change it for one or two items. But when I have to change it for 99% of the items I work, that adds up and I am not working as productively as I should be. Another thing to consider is the team members who don't know (or don't care) how to change capacities. In that case, they remain wrong until someone decides to fix it. If it was corrected at the corporate level, the problem would be dealt with proactively rather than reactively.You know you change that right
