How Bad Is Your Store?

[Hardlinesmaster]

Most tm’s can’t stage or work a forklift to put in a the steel.

Then they say what is a Pog number?

I left the beginning of May and have heard from so many how bad hours are. So what’s the deal? A huge cut? Are sales down?

We’ve got the hours, we just don’t have the staffing. When minors go back to school we are going to be screwed.

Even with all that have exited and being down so many tls, people are getting 4-5 hour shifts.

Your backroom is massive lol

It’s definitely not. That’s part of our problem.

 

[qmosqueen]

I was thinking the same thing! Look at all that empty steel space!

Ladderless back room

That shot is bigger than my three bay receiving area and most of my bulk steel.

That‘s not right. Most of the employees in my store are getting as many hours as they want.

Our front end is going to be absolutely screwed because everyone is going on educational LOA or cutting hours drastically in August. Our leaders don’t seem to think it’s an issue, but they did it to themselves by pretty much age discriminating against anyone out of their 20s. Nitpicking for no reason, never getting the opportunity to learn GS (which has led to GS having high school drama), stuck on cart cleaning, etc. It’s gonna be fun.

Maybe not for your stores volume but im in a old store and that has to be at least triple the size of mine

Yeah......we were ladderless for about 5 seconds. Didn't take.

5 years ago we had a Walmart open right across the street. Sales dropped 12% and store didn't reduce OTLs (order to levels). Backroom was so jacked up we were climbing over pallets in the fire aisle to get to the bathrooms. Had pallets of BTS sit untouched under the line for weeks. SD refused to cancel a truck. Wish I had pictures.

Still the biggest mess I saw in my 17 years with spot..

Me etl had a meltdown when we rolled half a truck from a double onto the weekend. Here this week we start getting 3 doubles and I’m pretty sure that’s going to end up being the minimum until the end of the year.
A couple years ago we had 17 pallets of style in the steel because the old store director refused to add any pay roll.

There's one ladder. It was stolen from the fixture room, but then they had the gall to steal it back.

Yikes and Gadzooks! Seventeen? That's outrageous.

It was ridiculous. Needless to say that person isn’t with the company any more. Made very questionable decisions that still haunt my store.

We've been rolling around half a truck each day for about a month now. Today we got blessed with a 4500 piece double that are leaving at 11 p.m. looks like it was just unloaded. We've got about 10 pallets of just softlines with half of it at the top of the steel so we could have more space for the next day. As a fulfillment tm I'm just tired of having to dig through shit in every batch man.

Ah, I went to support a store that had 40 pallets of style. was crazy.

There's no way that would happen at my store.
Don't have that kind of space to waste

So bad that my SD told someone they were embarassed tp work here... I wonder who could fix that?
