Archived Power Goes Out, So Do Your Profits

This store lost power late last night; all cold product is getting QMOS'd. Market team is running around with flats. RIP team.

North east is expecting a huge storm this weekend and I’ve gotten about 100 emails about what to do if we lose power. This store must have been without power for a while because you’re not supposed to start covering coolers until like your 3

Or they don't know how long it was out and better safe than sorry?

Hopefully no one from your store is on here..

claim it as a loss toss it to the break room. we are insured for this kind of thing. yeah we'll lose a bit but it won't be a total loss.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

Insurance will cover the loss.

 

[NKG]

Insurance will cover the loss.

And payroll to qmos everything!!!!

 

[allnew2]

Insurance will cover the loss.

Not if they qmos. They have to do a store transfer to get that money back.

We had to do that at my store and we also had a ton of product downstairs (back room) in the dairy cooler, the meat freezer, and the non-meat freezer which all had to be chucked

The loss will be covered. An itemized dpci list is done. I have been through 10 no power events.

I know it will be cover but there is a process to get that back such as the store transfer in the pda. You scan each item as you toss it and at the end of scanning everything you finish the transfer and it actually gives you the amount of the loss and then you go to store apps to print the paper work.

yeah, gotta do a store transfer to T1099 to get the money back.

Your hours would still get cut even if you heroically saved 100% of cold product

I miss working at my old job when each frozen shipment came packed with a fuck ton of free dry ice. That shit was handy as fuck to have around because whenever the 500 year old compressors shat out on us we would just pack the most expensive stuff in bricks of dry ice and only had to throw away about 10% of it. It was neat because the digital thermometers in each cooler stayed on and working so we could keep an eye on the temps without using the laser gun.

Well I say “miss” but not really, I did like taking bags of free dry ice home to load into my Yeti and freeze that vodka solid

Nah this store is not mine and it's a ways away.

Had to do 2 in the span of a couple of months.

I had more overtime dumping rotten milk, yogurt, cheese, produce, freezer, etc than I ever did working Christmas.

Pushing overflowing shopping cart upon overflowing shopping cart to the compactor gets old real quick, as does restocking pallet upon pallet of cooler and frozen food when recovery replenishment comes in. I'm not forgetting backstocking, I just don't do it.
