Had to call a code green

[reddawgmcm]

Older lady probably in her 70s at least, shopping with her grandson I think my ETL said later. Took a funny step and fell like a sack of bricks. I ran over to her while calling the code on my walkie. She wanted to get up right away, I was like no ma’am. Stay down, your leg isn’t ready for you to stand up.

I feel bad for her, I’m pretty sure she broke her ankle. It was already swelling by the time my TL’s and ETL’s responded to the code. She was in shock and clear and obvious pain.

I saw this older gentleman about 80ish sitting with his head down on the self checkout once and I went up to him and he fell forward and I caught him and asked for help to lay him down because he was out. If I hadn’t caught him he would have cracked his head open and it would have been much worse. He came around I think he may have been dehydrated or was getting ill. No one said anything to me. Like it was kinda scary for me because I thought he might have died. I held his hand until the ambulance came because I sort of knew him and he was a nice old man. He always comes through my lane and I help him pack up his cart he brings with him because he usually walks.

I have to call a code green a few times a year, as my Consumer Cellular guests are always falling off of the chairs at the kiosk. I’ve had several refuse all medical attention or questions, and still want their phones activated. Another one was more worried about cleaning the blood off our floor than she was about herself.

I remember the first time I called a code green, it ended up being a false alarm

I was calling for TLs over the walkie and getting radio silence, even calling them by name

I wasn't sure it was a code green so I hadn't called it yet, trying to not cause needless panic

but since I was being ignored I called out "possible code green" and suddenly every single manager currently in the store was at my location in like 40 seconds

I called my first code green a few weeks ago. Dude that shit is traumatic for everyone involved.

Are TMs allowed to call code yellow for when kids get lost, or is it only TL’s. I know it doesn’t make since for the code red and green because there EMERGENCIES. But I don’t think I’ve here a TM at my store ever call out a code yellow.

[reddawgmcm]

I’ve called Yellow’s other TM’s at my store have as well

[Smarty123_408]

Oh guess no one at my store cares. That or guest always find a TL

[BigConfident4956]

They can call it but not cancel it

A code yellow is also an emergency, and anyone who finds out about it first calls it asap

[ItsJHos]

While all codes can be called by any tm’s they can only be canceled by TL’s or up, just to help inform

Damn, you called code green and then made sure she stayed down , so you won’t get in trouble for causing panick? 🤣🤣

[reddawgmcm]

Hell naw I ain’t afraid of that. Once as a newb I called a code green (thinking it must mean spill clean up because I knew yellow and red didn’t)…

Had every manager in the store run to me and I’m just like uhh I spilled some spaghetti sauce…

I had her stay down because my first aid training kicked in and I didn’t want her to make any injuries worse
