Electronics TMs must stay in Electronics at ALL times at my stores. Unless helping a guest. Occasionally if it’s extremely slow and we know the DTL won’t be coming, they help with toys/sporting goods freight, but that’s maybe once a week and maybe half a uboat. So not really.
I'll take the occasional phone call or help the occasional guest but I haven't zoned toys since since q3 and I took a shift pushing toys in January. So it's been a while
One thing that can set you up for success is auditing every item. Not saying do it all at once, but get your capacities and SFQs correct soon. Map out a plan to get a set number of aisles done in a quick amount of time. Then add it to your routine to scan your outs.
Yeah, I know DTL cares about them. I just personally don't. Drives me nuts when I see a TM setting something when they still have repacks from the truck sitting in the back.
What if what they are setting is IN all those repacks? Saves touching it more than once if they set it then go work the repacks. Gotta save those steps, both figuratively and literally.
