a GSTL or Team Leader walk out mid shift?
This same exact thing happened at my store where we had a very light grid to begin with and no one was going up to back up, but the LOD handled it well.Just a GSA. We had a crazy night and sales floor ignored her calls for backup or gave the I am with a guest excuse and she just walked right out.
Our LOD looked like she wanted to cry.

dude was just a dick.
I guess we all now know the "receipe" for someone with authority to walk out mid-shift!! 😵stl being a dick.

All these dick STLs everybody has. Wow. Mine's cool. He's over 50 so he doesn't act like a college kid, and he's been a manager elsewhere. He has high expectations and is pretty tough, not so much on tms but definitely with leadership. So funny to hear him telling one of our ETLs to push an EXF he dropped or asking another ETL who left a cart full of random crap in the backroom.
If it was a crazy night, like you say, maybe they were with guests helping.
We had an aptl turn his two weeks notice into the stl...the stl told him he could just go ahead and leave now...he didn't need him. So, the aptl just walked out .We had an ETL-AP walk out mid shift. He was pissed off and through with dealing with our Nightmare STL apparently. From what I gathered after the STL was promoted to DTL (he was very good business wise, but I had heard he created a hostile work environment behind closed doors) is that all of the ETL's in my building hated dealing with the guy (the STL).
The issue lied with the DTL because he placed the new STL knowing how bad he was.I was with the company for 10 years and I was an ETL-Logistics and I did this. Not my proudest moment, but I'd been with a new STL for about 10 months and this guy was a real bad asshole... I mean real bad... I was the 4th ETL Log within a 12 month timeframe upon my arrival... I kid you not... the DTL took me out for food to talk about the issues I was having with the STL and pretended to care but he was just trying to keep me from quitting to protect his turnover... dude didn't give a flying fuck because not once did he reach out after I left, haha... my successor was going to transfer, went there for support help, and him and the STL butted heads and he didn't even last one day...
Anyways, I was never once coached nor did I feel my job was threatened in any way. Regularly made payroll... BRLA was highest it had been in years... dude was just a dick... we had a bad night... I decided I didn't want to hear his mouth not one more time, so I handed my keys over to the Sr. TL and I walked out, lol...
