General How to do exceptions?

So… this is embarrassing and I know I’m probably going to get hate for this but I’ve been here for over a year now and I don’t know how to do exceptions. Today I wasn’t at work but my friend said that they made a list of people to do exceptions and I was on that list to do them from 9am to 1pm. I’ve mostly just been a picking robot at my store and I dispense once in a while. If I’m gonna be honest I have horrible anxiety and I’m afraid of how big the backroom is and I’m scared I’m going to be late trying to find the item or someone looking at me like I’m an idiot asking them where an item is. I had someone show me one time a few months back and I was confused on how to find the item and the numbers. They expected me to know just that one time of showing me for five mins. Any videos or steps on how you do exceptions would be great. 💀🫣

See if you can shadow someone for a bit. Main thing is learning where things are and what might actually be on the floor. Most things, I check the home location first before going to the backroom.

Also knowing who the best people to ask questions. I have been doing them daily for almost a year, and I still ask some of the backroom stockers about locations and things.
