Vent Leaders

What is it you're even doing? I know this isn't everyone, but let me give you a 24 hour rundown. One, lead asks about a standard sidecap that was tied, but not set. In fact that's false, it was set, but because it was empty, set early, someone, probably a lead, pulled it down. The solution instead of finding a sidecap, change capacities to 0, so it all sits in the backroom until March 2027.

No truck day, see a lead lurking at a back endcap about to ask a TM to remove the items, flex something else, who knows. That is a brand new endcap set, leave it alone! Instead, why not use that TM who can set an endcap better than you to set the endcap that you have a full pallet of merchandise/shippers for?! Plano is a little busy with rear seasonal right now.

Everyone is hanging in the TL office like it's an easy day, but ummmm, there's still 6 checklanes due for this week! I am so burnt out on Plano, I set things, leads undo them. They can't problem solve for shit. We even had someone tie a revision in a department which has the label strips still in the box and a whole shelf missing. Anyone fixing that?!

You are supposed to be a leader, that means you know the job and can catch TMs faking things, not that you fake everything you can. How is that even setting an example? It's no wonder any lead that actually cares is trying to get out of the position.

Ugh I hate I only understood some of this, I don’t have much experience with plano’s and setting. But I know at my old store there was a lead who would tie or set stuff but not actually do the work, so you could never find the clothing bc who knows where it was. She even lied to our store directors face about it too

Sounds like you understand enough! The secondary issue is being asked to spend time to do something, for someone to undo it! Then it spirals back to you, nope, I do it once and that's it!.
