Since nobody remembered that when the receiver takes a day off a backup needs to be scheduled, the ETL-LOG covered receiving Friday. And proceeded to fuck up literally every single delivery. Paperwork is stamped if I'm lucky, but not filled out. If I'm really lucky he wrote the PO and receipt number somewhere on the sheet and initialed it. If I'm really, really lucky, he used an actual PO and not the vendor number, the invoice number or even the vendor's own customer number for Target. I have a completed credit (with no stamp, of course), no BoL or pack slip and a dollar amount that definitely does not match what is on the driver's printout. There was an ADSD delivery from Friday that had not been checked in at all. Paperwork still sitting on my desk, stamped but nothing else. I don't know what happened to the pallet of soda credits. An overflowing ESIM bin. A pile of packages, including ship to stores that had sat around for three days.
So I spend all day trying to figure out what the hell happened, cleaning up the usual weekend messes. And finding out that now I have to watch flow team because they've started throwing defectives in the trash cages and the TM who does trash just throws them away. Had to fish several boxes of lightbulbs out of the compactor. And a shipper while I was at it because this fucking store, that's why.
And when I get a chance to chat with the STL and ETL-HR about what happened, its the same old story. The ETL-HR looks concerned and makes promisingly sympathetic noises. The STL once again gives the same spiel about how he understands how frustrating it must be to have extra work (an understatement if there was ever one). But receiving is a complicated workcenter and these things take time and he hopes I understand that results won't happen immediately. Okay, I understand that, but this is not the first time I have brought these issues up. This is not the first time I have taken time off. This is the not the first time I have come back to find a fucking mess on my hands. But sure, just tell me to be patient, that things will change for the better when pigs fly sometime in December.
I'm so tired of dealing with this. I understand why the last two receivers left the way they did.
