For a very short time, cashiers at my store were asked to help with tables and hanging clothes on the very front isle of softlines, directly facing check lanes. Nothing major. Just grab the hardlines stray off the front tables, straighten the folded, pick the hanging up off the floor. And, only during slow times, if possible. They moaned and groaned. Did the worst, half-assed jobs possible (really, hanging a shirt on a hanger shouldn't require a full training session). Then were told that they didn't need to help anymore.
I think one of the cashiers was being spiteful. She was softlines before being moved to cashier. I'm told she was moved out of softlines because she was lazy.
Some of our cashiers shop softlines and destroy it. I was recently folding my jeans wall when a cashier came and started pulling every pair of her size jeans out of the stacks. She crumpled them up and shoved them back, messing up everything. I asked her what was up? She said "what? I'm shopping." Disgusting behaviour. We're co-workers. Show some common decency!
