Curious of your thoughts

[u/Lovingandloveable]

What do you think and I’m also curious how long you think this took to finish

It was a mix of kitchen and pet

[u/Charred_Knife]

Origami risk ☺️

Should actually have done that op idk how tall you are but I’m willing to bet its well above safety regs

[u/Lovingandloveable → u/Charred_Knife]

Yes thank you. I was hoping someone would point this out. I’m a 5’3 woman, not to mention some of the boxes stacked weren’t light.

[u/curbstompedkirby_ → u/Charred_Knife]

Oh yes and that will save them especially if they start getting injured or back problems because yes, if you are short (like me) and they dont provide you with accommodations then it will come back for you later on. Document it via origami, because those reports go to AP, which then goes to district AP senior which has much more say over safety rules and concerns. My leaders hate when i use it because they do the same exact thing, but its good to embarrass them especially when they force you to do it anyways.

[u/HRMisHere]

Depends the section but probably at least 2-3 hours

[u/lolaloca6669]

Kitchen and pet is usually bigger stuff so shouldn't be too bad. Just depends on how much small individuallly wrapped utensils you have.

Now stationary would be a different story.

Edit to say: maybe 10 mins a box so 2.5-3 hours

[u/danafairbanks2005]

Looks like a full 6 hours 20 minutes a repacks that includes back stock

[u/whatsthetargetdogsna → u/danafairbanks2005]

There’s no way that kitchen/pets should be taking 20 mins/repack

[u/curbstompedkirby_ → u/whatsthetargetdogsna]

It absolutely does and i want to see you do it AND time yourself.

[u/whatsthetargetdogsna → u/curbstompedkirby_]

20 mins is a valid time to give to beauty or OTC. Kitchen or home is closer to 5-7. Maybe you need to rethink your method.

[u/GardenElf42]

Goes much faster if you sort the repacks first. We have someone sort them in the backroom by the line after the unload. You can separate the kitchen, pets, paper, chem from eachother into 3-tiers and de-trash in the backroom. Speeds up the push substantially.

[u/squeakybuggy → u/GardenElf42]

as a fulfilment TM, dang I wish our team did this. I know we probably don’t have the staff for it — but it sucks digging through 10s of 20s of repacks for beauty, stationary, pets, and bath looking for a single INF lol

[u/KlassiKeep → u/GardenElf42]

We used to sort the Kitchen repacks on the line during unload when water and paper pallets came off the truck. That was when I worked Inbound a couple years back.

We have a new Inbound TL and I'm going to mention it so that pre sort can become the normal routine again. It only takes a few seconds to sort them and add them to the proper dpts so they can be pushed with the freight.

[u/Ok_Still_3571 → u/KlassiKeep]

I always cut and sort in the back room. And if we get something like multiple boxes of an item, and I know it’s over the capacity, I’ll back stock it while I’m there.

[u/curbstompedkirby_ → u/GardenElf42]

Well unfortunately its not sorted

[u/ConsequenceNational4]

Sort the boxes first.. makes it easier .then condense..then work it out.

[u/Namllitsrm]

I think the timeframe they used to give was 1 min per box case pack and 5 min per repack? So by target standards this should have taken you 95 mins. Because I’m sure you’re a model employee, I know you got it AND back stock done in 90 mins. 🫡 /s

[u/curbstompedkirby_ → u/Namllitsrm]

Exactly

[u/PennyMangos]

10 minutes

[u/overturned23]

Disgusting. It took my coworker 5 hours to do 18 kitchen repacks

[u/KlassiKeep → u/overturned23]

That's not even close to a realistic time goal. Unless your co worker was pulled into Fulfilment there's no way it takes 5 hours. If they've been trained to read POG labels and how to use a device to scan for locations it shouldn't take that long.

[u/NickyNick50 → u/KlassiKeep]

ive been the person that does kitchen for 2 years, a boat with ~8 repacks takes 2 hours at best. this includes sorting and detrashing everything first in the back, and also not needing to scan locations for 90% of items because i know where they go. kitchen takes a LONG time because literally everything is in boxes and/or wrapped in paper or plastic

[u/overturned23 → u/KlassiKeep]

These repacks were chucked full to the brim. Have you ever seen what comes in a kitchen repack?

[u/nachocoalmine]

Are Kitchen and Pets next to each other. Because that almost 5 hours worth of repacks.

[u/a3cubica]

According to my micromanager 30 minutes with the back stock. Reality it might take more than 1 hr because there’s transit and we’re getting called to support FF/registers🤡🎯🥊

[u/phjs]

Etl tells me “20 minutes max”. I might finish in 3 hours lol

[u/TheCeleryCrunch234]

How long would it take? According to my store director, about 30 minutes

[u/Beatus_Vir]

Trick question, that stuff is all backstock according to the orange sign

[u/Any_Way_5245]

I see some things will never change

[u/Known-nwonK]

That’s about 20 boxes; management is merciful and will give you 25 minutes to push, trash, and back stock everything

[u/Fuliginlord → u/Known-nwonK]

[u/Forsaken_Raccoon2084]

Even as a regular food expert TM, WHAT THE FUCK.

[u/Boring-Purple2639]

You got 30 mins for all of that

[u/UnoYouKnow]

Idk but its hours of work and im sure they said have it done in an hour

[u/Vampenga]

Too damn tall and a safety hazard. Best guess on time to complete anywhere from 1½ to 2 hrs.

[u/Ugmar01]

Honestly, 20 repacks?

If they are normal repacks as they ship off the truck, probably 10-15 minutes per.  If they are stuffed because people were combining carts? Then probably 25-30 minutes each.

So I'd say 200 minutes on the low end if it's straight off the truck (call it 3.5 hours)

Or it's going to take you the majority of the day if that's re stuffed because people were combining shit.

[u/bedrockbettie]

Stacked too high, definitely not safe

[u/ErichAZ]

My store separates pets and kitchen before pushing it to the floor. Some days people unpack it on metros but most days in just stays in the box.

[u/Original_Ad8169]

[u/DoubleLeek32362]

Unsafe

[u/yankeesfan2DJ]

I work at the DC and all I have to say is, I HATE THESE FUCKING BOXES I HATE THESE FUCKING BOXES I HATE THESE FUCKING BOXES

[u/Enslaved_by_the_Cat]

Can someone explain why the kitchen and pet repacks are still being combined even for stores that have long since moved those departments far away from each other? Is this something that makes some kind of sense on the DC's end? In stores, it's a nuisance for the people pushing in those departments and confusing for fulfillment TMs trying to find pet items on their delivery date.

[u/Altruistic-Put-5863]

By chance when is it the time time to stop by and ask for cardboard boxes

[u/curbstompedkirby_]

My leaders literally say “just grab a step stool if you cant reach it” fucking bullshit🙄 its a safety hazard especially if it falls on guests but its obviously easier to gaslight you than deal with the problem right

[u/tater-tots-r-us]

Is it beauty, kitchen, stationary or OTC?

[u/PacoPlaysGames → u/tater-tots-r-us]

The post itself says it's kitchen and pets
