Is this Real Life? (A Market vent thread)

For anyone else that has Laughing Cow cheese on an unrefrigerated endcap: yes it really does go there. It came in an assortment shipper. We looked it up on their website and it says to refrigerate after purchase and opening.

That's like the Oscar Mayer pre cooked bacon it was on a dry end cap last year too

instocks keeps doing RIGs in dairy and specialty ,milk and we keep getting too much dairy in. Right now we have 2 pallets and 6 carts of back stock that cannot be back stocked cause the racks and wacos are full. Why so much dairy backstock, instocks stop scanning your RIGs for dairy please.

We will keep scanning them since are scored by how many RiGs we complete.

Or the velveeta logs...my flow team loses their mind every year when one location is cold and the other isn't.

I think my store manager is trying to make me team lead because just like every other market team lead, I've worked in every other department today but market.

That is my life since becoming market TL. I don't mind helping other areas, but when they have me set Christmas for most of my shift when no one else is in market it's really annoying. I have told them it's difficult to keep up market if someone isn't over there most of the day, but no one really cares besides me and my team.

It still boggles my mind that we backstock those little bags of pepperoni in the meat cooler but the sales floor location is on a dry shelf.

I seriously dunno what's up with those. For us, they keep backstocking them in the dairy cooler

It is also in the Merch Update Guide that is posted every week on Redwire just FYI

You know whats the best....

When you are together with HR and see the breakdown of hours and how they are supposed to be like 200 for the schedule being written the week before thanksgiving but only allocating 100 and saving the rest for other areas.....SMH

I know how that goes though. I have to do Pharmacy backup constantly, grab carts, LITERALLY push out C&S the WHOLE time they are there otherwise they wont finish. This past week I even pushed out the whole pallet of produce and backstocked it all by myself even though that is the logistics workcenter job

I think there are 2 different DPCIS. On some of the boxes that come in it will say "For Dry POG" or something like that

Question: We get our FDC trucks on Sunday Tuesday and Thursday's. Does anyone know if we be getting any on thanksgiving day?

Do you receive the trucks on those days or just work them then? We get ours the night prior so I fully expect them to drop a load off Wednesday night.

Also, speaking of Black Thursday; where sampling tables a thing last year? I checked my store's Sunflower page and we have tables listed for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The rest of the info is very sparse so I have no clue as to what or when on Thursday.

I shove the dry ones into dry grocery backstock. They get holes and rot enough, making them go into the cooler to pull them is dumb.

Exactly.

There were some Redwire messages sent out semi recently that discussed food deliveries around Thanksgiving and Christmas. I suggest checking on there.

 

[Jeremy1818]

Redwire will have the holiday week schedule for your store on the food deliveries message

 

[BreakingSpot]

Thanks y'all!

I managed to get my Beekman Farms 4' lead set this weekend. It looks really cool and it has some really interesting things on it. The fact that the graphic has the gay couple that created it is just icing on the cake

If you have the option, set your capacities for the milk/dairy items, It'll take a bit. We are running into an issue with instocks scanning stuff, telling us the capacities were wrong, and then researching it anyway.

I love how Target decided to have their market pantry turkeys fill en entire bunker which are not big sellers. Now, the butterball are on the other half of the freezer bunker and sell much better than their turkeys. Also Target, thanks you for sending us enough Turkeys (mainly market pantry) to not have to order any (yet) .... NOT. These turkeys are taking up space in our freezers. Remember, we know our freezers and know how to order. Trust us to order what we need.

I do not understand why Market Pantry turkeys don't sell.
