Avoiding management. I call it Marco Polo.

I highly recommend filling out the 2 week notice form. Everyone doing your work while you get paid will enjoy that.😜

I have observed a tm working a certain way. She takes a uboat and parks at an aisle . Opens a box which contains 10 counts of something . Takes two at a time and go to and fro the aisle instead of taking the whole box with her. Sometimes the same process for a product which goes 3-4 aisles away. In between, the tm just goes around the whole grocery department for a walk . Meanwhile, I push a uboat , go for my meal and when I come back she is still walking around 😇
You can give this a try!!

When were overnight we use to have 4 to 5 leaders in the building. We would hold down the button on the walkie when they were talking so it would cut out. We would see who would lose it first lol

Play fruit ninja. If you hit the fruit at a certain place at the compactor, it cuts the fruit in half.

Do as our market team does drink and pray for great dark beyond to claim them from this cruel existence

Count the bodies in the freezer, sharpen the cutlery, fill up extra bottles of degreaser, stockpile wypals....

Sometimes I'll use MPM and try to find what the most/least sold item is in an aisle. It's a wonder to me why some of the stuff we carry hasn't been put on clearance yet.

Get the fuck back to work. There is always something to do.

We had some seasonal clowns who would walk ONE empty box an aisle or two over to the jailer. 10 mins for a casepack of sweet relish. They didn't last long.

Pulled a Schwinn out of the baler one fine morning.

Especially with these hours lately, I might listen to music the last hour of my shift when the store is closed. Some leaders are very leniently with that. I keep it at a low volume so I can still hear the walkie.

We have a long time tm who plays music so loud with a speaker that he hangs on his belt. We can hear he is approaching the backroom 2 min away 😂 yeah of course before the store opens .

Is your freezer a Freezer of Holding? Or do you toss out the bodies at some point?

I was almost thinking Goodfellas, but that's the extreme case.

I usually wait till just before Halloween & thaw 'em out when hoards of zombies are needed.
Usually results in a total clean-out then.

Hasn't happened to me, yet.

Always something to do... though sometimes I have to push myself to finish a big task (like Researching an entire Fill group - after pushing/back stocking my truck and 1-4-1s.)
aka I am tired as f*ck but need to take advantage of the *little* time I get to do things besides push freight
