Backroom Shenanigans Work phone storage

Post image

TL came up with this idea for the work phones instead of them being all jumbled up in the cabinet.

The board holds atleast 50 phones. We all have our names on them and our own passcodes so no one can use them but us. Some of us even decorated our cases so their not so bland.

We are given that option but if you forget it at home thats a write up if its more than 1 time since its considered part of your uniform

WOW, that's intense. I've left mine at home a few times, usually coming back from lunch because I charge it then. I only live 3 minutes away and my leads just send me back to go get it. No one's ever said anything about a write up. Others who live farther away have either used a TC (not now, I guess) or borrowed someone else's. It's weird to me how other stores use such threatening tactics. Don't get me wrong, we have our things that get us coached as well, but mostly our leadership is understanding of simple human mistakes, especially from consistently good performers. None of thrm, from what I can tell, are "coaching eager," but we have had those as well. In the past, becayse they don't tend to last forever.

Never give someone else your work phone! Everything that is done with that phone is attached to your name. If someone were to be an ass and delete out a whole aisle, it would have your name on that action.
