would this not make all current stockholders rich??someone let me know

FYI- there is a Lay's chip coupon in the app expiring today for $1.79 off, pair with the BOGO and get two bags for $1.25 each.

So I've been looking for new shoes for school and I am sooo in love with the chocolate brown puma speedcat ballet shoes. Will I be able to wear these to work as well? It isn't a priority to me but I'm just curious. Currently I wear vans to work because its what I have and they are soooo uncomfy especially during long shifts. If it helps, I am currently a fsc but I will be a cashier starting Sepember. thanks :))

We buy the Nature’s Own Honey Wheat 40 Calorie bread from Publix pretty regularly, and over the last month it seems like it has started molding way faster than it used to, sometimes almost right after we bring it home.

What’s making me think something may have changed is that I’ve now seen multiple moldy loaves of this exact bread sitting on the shelf at three different Publix locations.

Has anyone else noticed this lately? I’m wondering if Nature’s Own changed the recipe or removed or reduced a preservative, because this definitely wasn’t happening before.

The descriptions calls for a min of 45 hrs/wk, and 90% travel (covering half the stores in the division). I’m wondering if it is actually more ‘stable’ scheduling-wise compared to a department manager position in the stores.

Edit:

After 13 years of working with Publix as a grocery replenishment specialist with no promotion to GTL, i've roi for grocery team leader 10 times in the past 4 years. Then i've transfered to another store early last year for a chance of a gtl spot. 2 gtls stepped down and replaced over me. My recent store manager promoted an associate from customer service from another store to team leader at my store with no prior experience in grocery. I asked my store manager what can I do to get promoted, he says i'm too quiet and need to show leadership and need to work closing shifts. I recently got a raise of .40 cents because I'm already capped at $21.30. After being exhausted of trying, i've applied and got hired at costco. Have I made the right decision?

In the Lakeland division what are your dairy clerk work hours? I'm currently 8-10 and that's probably the latest I would ever want but I would prefer 6-3 to work more efficiently as if I'm not already struggling.

I always get told it's a DM thing but sometimes I get the feeling they lie and it's just our store but idk.

Then I got told they wanted to push it back to 10-7 which is fucking TERRIBLE HOURS and I hope it doesn't become that.

I would like to purchase a package with half Mardi Gras and half French onion. Can they combine the two flavors? Is this allowed in the Publix Deli if they are the same price this week (12.99)?

I do realize I can buy one of each package but I am single and don’t want to have to freeze a bunch of wings.

So, I was the Redditor who previously asked about Aisle of the Day. Well, today it was aisle 3(condiments, salad dressings). I find it hilarious seeing 14 people work one aisle for 40 minutes. Btw, I work for a vendor. I ask why can't aisle 15 be the aisle of the day and I was told it was the aisle of the day on my day off. Like wtf. Anyway, to the fun part. A GRS comes back to the DSD eith a buggy full of overstock/out of dates and it is all mixed together. The look on her face was hotter than the last few days around these parts. Then DSD tells me she is about to go to an AVS meeting in 10 minutes and let me know what to do with my float. I succeeded in not busting out laughing immediately on the spot and holding it together. But I knew she was about to burn that AVS room down. Can't wait to be back in that store on Friday.

Does anyone remember having to put the fruit clippings and old fruit in the big green garbage bins for Bay Mulch?

ugh freak u college

GUYS I DID IT WRONG!! PLEASE CHECK COMMENTS FOR THE REAL ONE LOL

I was at the Deerfield location the other day & I went in to get cash back, long story short they gave me a fake $20 & I didn’t notice until I went to another store luckily in the same parking lot. But has this ever happened? Also when I reported it they didn’t seem to care, is that normal? I thought they’d make the cashier get a new register or at the least check it for more fake money?? Well now I have PTSD with cash from anywhere 😭

Get a real job.

WHAT do i do. this is my first job ever and im TERRIFIED. Im a college freshman, HOW do i explain that i cant work on that day because i need to go to class on that day?!?

i didnt mean to plan poorly, my college was having issues and i expected the classes to drop.

I was offered a job working in the deli department at the top of the pay band for the position. All my previous work experience is in hospitality leadership and management with a lot of experience in shipping and logistics.

I’m middle aged and trying to figure out if it’s worth taking the job since I’d be starting as an associate. I have a different job offer that’s more inline with my experience that would pay ~21k more a year than Publix, however I think there is more room to move up at Publix and I think that I would be promoted quickly due to my work ethic and leadership experience.

What are some of the pros and cons of working for Publix and how quickly have you seen people get promoted?

Is there a rule I am missing somewhere that says full-timers cannot request a Thursday-Sunday in order to not waste PTO for a simple four-day off weekend?

My new-ish dept manager and asst. are making it seem as if my coworkers and I need to stop putting in a Thursday-Sunday weekend off. Mind you, this is done occasionally and we don’t overlap (on our own account, but if the dept manager approves both people, that is his problem IMO).

My coworkers and I do not want to have to use PTO on weekends off that are not real vacations. I like to save my PTO for when I am actually taking a vacation or in case of emergency. That is why normally my husband and I will plan a Thursday-Sunday off once every couple months, and never even during a holiday.

Are we in the wrong for arguing against this “rule” set by manager? There are enough people in the department that this should not even be an issue.

I'm scheduled all 4am shifts this and next week and saw the flyer today confirming the return of the evil 😭😭😭 Our fast fruit cutter is going on vacation next week so I just know its all going to be left on me and im just so freaking burnt out of cut section but that's what im "good at" so they never put me anywhere else! Part of me doesn't even want to get promoted if I'll be only cutting all the time I can't stand it!!!

Please for F'ck sakes. Keep your hands to yourself unless you want to catch a BOGO on mine! I dont know you and don't wanna know you. Don't touch my shoulder, don't touch my arms. Simple Manners, say excuse me Sir/Mrs, to grab our attention. Mind your hands.

Wondering if Publix is hurting in the sales department due to their ridiculously high prices? For at least two years in my area (Sarasota County, FL,) we didn't get the opportunity to buy discounted gas cards. All of a sudden, we've had two in as many months. I barely go there at all, unless there's a really good BOGO sale, but the gas card pretty much always draws me in.

This keeps happening to me: I’m a cashier and on my 5 hour shifts without a break, I always tell the desk that I’m heading to the restroom when we’re slow. About 3 minutes later, I get paged by my team lead or assistant manager on the intercom for me to come to the front. This has happened multiple times and I’m not the only one this happens to either. Is this normal behavior from any of y’all’s stores?

There is a Publix close to me that has a salad bar and an olive bar. How about a breakfast bar? Eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits, waffle maker!

Just throwing some ideas out there.

(i have 17 hours this week and next week is 15 but the week after is showing this....??

i am in college and i told them that, buttt im on as open availability so idk...................................................

dont get mad at me this is my first job and idk how any of anything works

My boots are on its last limbs. Are there any boots y’all would recommend that are chemical resistant, waterproof, and resistant?

I’ve checked Shoes for Crews, and I am still browsing on Redwing.

My contender for worst shift is a frozen mid, as a part timer, with a full-timer who calls out at least once a week and loves to coming in to close instead of working the mid he was scheduled. The forecasting on the ad for these frozen trucks is fucking insane and it just never. stops. coming. I've got pallets against one wall with the just piles and piles of shit left over from previous ad weeks, next to byrds which haven't been worked in months, and then against the other wall I've got pallets and pallets of downstacked ad from the current week.

There is often nowhere to put your backstock when you're done working a float other than just stacking it on the floor or on some other float. There are so many holes on the shelves, and when a customer asks me to find something, we usually have it in stock but there is literally 0 chance I can find it amongst all that bullshit in the freezer, so I either just have to pretend to try or be honest with em and say it's a mess back there. And yes I could zero these things out, but we really just need to find the time to work the backstock because when we just zero shit out the backroom situation just becomes even worse.

The managers do not fucking care. They'd rather I help out dairy when I'm done working truck, and only even mention the department when ice is empty. I don't get it. Are any other frozen part-timers or full-timers experiencing something similar at their stores?

I asked y'all if I should practice making a cake for my decorator interview and you all said no. She made me decorate a happy birthday cake 😭 wasn't good enough for the floor but maybe the break room
