I absolutely hate it when a possible visit comes up. Key word POSSIBLE. It's a director coming potentially tomorrow. So they pooped out a butt load of hours for two days to get the entire store ptm'd, zoned, back stocked, set, etc., and all for this possible visit.
What kills me is that I want my store to be successful and to run well... All the time, with hitches here and there that come along with life as expected, but since we have great leadership, they run a tight ship. This is not the case. They pulled us all out of the wood works to kills our backs on theory to fix fires with a box of band aides. The store will look good for a few days and if we do get the visit, we did this for what? Pats on the back, good job guys here's some subs we requisitioned. Here comes the new week and all the same problems because we make it look as though we make it work with the boney payroll that they bless us with. "Well if they can do they do this with only this amount of payroll, then let's cut back on that 3% we just allocated them recently" says the bigwig.
It's cheating and lying and implicating all of us along with them. It's a major morale killer. Poor representation to any new tm that has come on to the team. It makes me want to go on a bitch slapping tangent. It's also why when those nachos are in the store, I'm all of a sudden "helping lines of guests" or David Copperfield(ing). Anyhoo Why do they do it?
