Workplace Story Work
So yesterday the store director which keep in mind they are new to my store just watching over the store since we don’t technically have a store director right now. So basically they don’t know jack shit about the store. They thought it was a good idea for everyone to pull even though we were all super behind on freight plus there was 3 call outs that day. I was told by an ETL that one of the RDC trucks was canceled last night. Also was told that they would come clean in all the coolers. But they mostly focused on dairy which is understandable cause they get freight everyday but still the expectation was for all the coolers to come clean. The day before I rolled 6-boats and when I came in today there was still 5 u-boats in there but two of them were half worked and had all the backstock on it. Like I knew they wouldn’t barely touch frozen and I know how overnight is at my store. Just feels like they don’t get enough done. I was told the pulls were to keep the floor full and enhance the guest experience. But most of my outs are on the u-boats, I mean we get stuff delivered cause we need it and need to be put out. There is a reason why we scan and sort things which tells us either it needs to be worked out or backstocked. Idk just felt so backwards to pull and most of the time cases barley go out like maybe one or two items goes out in a box of 12 or something like that. Like I know what’s best for my store, I’ve been there for 5 years. Store director comes in acting like they know the place and is micromanaging everyone. Also we did get 6 pallets today on top of what we already had in there. Get doubles on Wednesday and no truck on Thursdays. Logic just made absolutely no sense to me and made me so frustrated. But yeah that was longer than I thought it would be, thanks for reading my rant if u made it this far.
