who knows.
nah you will just get a 3000 piece truck at the worst possible time.
or anything else.
The simplest answer to this post (which isn't in the string because new multiquote remembers) is yes.
Its not a normal truck day with out this happening or something spilled of the freight.
Yeah I’m interested in both those challenges. I feel like a lot of our flow team does it because they like tha 4am and it’s a side job but now that it’s 6am I can imagine a decent amount will leave. Also I’m curious how long it takes to get all these new uboats
Yeah I guess they’re moving a couple backroom aisles to support the A&A sort at the end of ten line. Only thing I’m hesitant on is the line being set at all times. I like the idea that when someone’s done with pushing that vehicle they bring it back and all the backstock is staged on the line and it’s set again for the next day but that means they absolutely have to finish all backstock everyday which almost never happens. The concept of it is a great idea. Super sort off the truck, only one vehicle per person on the floor so there’s no random pallets or push in the way for guests, and it forces you to come clean everyday. I just hope they implement it properly and it doesn’t fall flat. Having more TMs here dayside will be cool help out with the guest facing work. I just think it’s not a great idea for everystore.... like where my store receives 10-12 GM trucks a week during BTS and Q4....
What have been the biggest challenges? Scheduling part seems quiet interesting.
Just read the comments after I posted that
The line will consist of uboats, tubs, flats and only a couple pallets. Your priority one (essentials) like hba, pets, food, chem stuff like that will be on the side closest to the sales floor and your priority two will be on the opposite which will be most everything else. Uboats will be used for almost everything. Tubs occasionally and the flats are for plastics, paper, and furniture (the big crap). Then the only thing that should be on pallets are your first two spots on either side of the line for transition so it can be stored in steal after the unload. Every uboat will be for a specific section like pets but on the uboats your three shelves will be sorted separately to the aisles which is where the “super sort” comes from. Your flow team/general merchandise team does the whole unload then you take your priority one vehicles first go to the floor push your vehicle then bring back your trash and backstock and the backstock goes back onto the like where your vehicle was for someone to backstock and the empty vehicle should be back on the line ready for tomorrow’s unload. All the repacks will be coming more sorted from the DC but will be sorted as they come off the line and you’re no longer allowed to to do the horseshoe breakout on the floor. Every piece of freight on the flooor should be actively being worked by one TM and there should never be pallets of freight or shopping carts of truck laying around
You won’t be storing them in the way you currently tuck vehicles in every nook and cranny. Most vehicles will be placed back on the line. From the time this process roles out your line should be set 24/7
