I hate it when hardlines TMs leave their vehicle of reshop and zoning in the middle of the aisle.

For some reason we have that issue as well....but in the team member restroom by the back room.
Ours when she goes on vacation it means the ETL's pounce and we no longer do our jobs but there pet projects.. Umm the store still has to be scanned for In-Stocks? Oh is that why your pulls are so large? <head desk, repeat til blood>

I hate when they spit it on shelves and fixtures...or, you know, in decorative vases. Decorative cases for sale at target are not your personal spittoon!

I hate when guests leave rugs and towels on the floor instead of making an attempt to put them back on the shelves.

At least the towels can be folded easily. The rugs are a colossal pain in the ass.

I hate it when they take curtains out of the packages.
Need to know what it looks like? Here's the display.
Need to know the size? It's right here on the package!

I hate it when guest rip open packages of underwear or tshirts and then proceed to just leave it all over the floor after deciding not to buy it. No one else is going to want to buy something ripped open and taped back together, so thanks, guests.

Most towels can be folded easily... not the Nate Berkus line though...

I hate it when despite "overstocking=bad bad bad, especially towels" being brought up in several flow huddles, I can still expect to find way too damn many towels on the shelves after pretty much every truck.
I'll admit they look neat but yeah, too flimsy for my comfort.
Have you sat in one? Apparently its like they're hugging your butt or something. According to the coworker who while we're trying to clear truck freight off the floor, while the store's open, loudly insists everyone try one of these chairs out because they're amazing.

I can't stand those damn things. There should just be a display of each model bolted to the furniture flats so they can't move around, and the ones for sale should be in boxes.

I tell new TM's to not even bother putting the chairs back on the shelves until the store closes....

IHIW people park their carts in the middle of the aisle and then throw a hissy fit if you touch it to get around it! If you don't want someone touching your cart, pay attention!!!

Hate to admit it, but I do this literally all the time. Any conversation that involves an ETL or TL of my department I would listen in on, because it's the only way I would know what is going on in the store - there wasn't any communication to the TMs. Staying an hour late? Massive pulls coming? Reshop overflowing? Always on channel 3 or 4 between the ETLs, never between TM and ETL.
It's infuriating for both sides. Should I be spying in on other conversations? No, of course not. But otherwise, I'm useless as a TM because I have no idea what is going on.
Also, listening to ETLs bitch about guests was always fun.

I hate it when people put flats across from the line which causes the wave to suck because you can't let anything block the sensors. I also hate it when you are trying to explain to a team member how to put the wave in push mode. I was going to try to explain them how to press the lower button but I figured that would be too difficult.

I hate it when for instocks I finish an area, move onto the next and ten minutes later the ETL/LOD is over the walkie going "Hey Circle9 did you scan this aisle/block?" Because that means I missed something (like 4 outs in the vitamin aisle full of overlapping ad signs) and its very urgent that I backtrack to fix it and maybe get a reminder on how to scan all the things.

I hate it when the STL decides to stand in the backroom and talk crap about a certain ETL...and how he really wants them gone.....and how he brags about how he isn't afraid to fire anyone...how he goes on and on that HE is in charge of this store...and of course he has his little flunkies with him...all fighting for a spot on his hiney to ass. Well, Mr stl...you may want to keep in mind that the way our back room is set up....your voice travels...so we pretty much hear your " private " conversations without even trying.....you are so full of yourself.....so entertaining .
