MEGATHREAD Flexible Fulfillment

Daily POT is 67%… nothing is working 🤣

How many units are you doing per day? What does your daily payroll look like? Are you a SFS store as well?

My ex-TL (thank god not anymore) couldn't lead her way out of a Target bag. She spends all her time explaining over the walkie why she "can't" and could somebody undefined do it "for me", or she's on break or she's taking lunch. Why do they keep her? Cuz she's been there since the store opened two-plus decades ago.

My TL has been one for 10 plus years and 4 in my department.

He is more concerned with keeping a low profile and not addressing some of the poor workers we have.

Forecast is showing 5,000 yesterday we did 5,363. As for payroll I don’t have access or know where to look for that. We are a SFS store as well.

POT when I left at 2:30pm today was 40%. They let us drown today.

I'm not even in Fulfillment but managers here are always talking about how important POT is here. If it hit 40% heads would ROLL. They get angry if it drops below 80%

 

[animalcrossing]

We have never had POT go below 95% and that was our absolute worst-

Maybe one day I’ll again I’ll work in a great store…

Wow we have days in the low 90s which is crazy enough. I wonder if your district manager cares at all. Ours would be calling the SD every 5 minutes.

Our SD is currently on a LOA conveniently
After rounds of visits in early November. Two other stores SDs have been running us.

An Unpaid LOA during our busiest season?

Also known as a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan) which means you are done at Target.

IMHO corporations use the PIP to make give you time quit because they are too lazy to fire you.

If they fire you they might have to pay severance and/or employment too.

Wow, they're about to clean house at your store

SD is gone, office is now empty.

 

[Dream Baby]

SD is gone, office is now empty.

Who would want to take a job at that store now?

It would have been smarter to replace the SD first then the GM ETL.

Word is ETL GM quit after SD from another store blamed him for the reason all the processes are broken.

How could a SD from another store even blame that ETL GM for broken processes?

Might be one of the SDs temporarily overseeing the store making the claim

It reminds of when I was an engineer at auto parts plant and someone said "there sure is a lot of bad communication here".

That someone was the plant manager!

Correct. We have had 3 overseeing us.

Holy cow!!!! My store would have leaders yelling on walkie for everyone to grab a batch. Pretty much everyone but, cashiers or tech would be in a batch.

As soon as mine comes on shift she starts shrieking into the walkie. She thinks she powerful but she's pitiful.

I don't know your situation, but surely saying something to try and fix a problem is better than just shrugging your shoulders, right?

the answer here is to turn down the walkie.

Don't put a Target on your back & complain about a TL "shrieking on the walkie" - and being generally unpleasant. @nevermind
