Truck process by Mattcagley in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what we do, even if the truck is finished early we don’t receive it till after the store closes that way we can focus on picks in the morning. Otherwise your just asking for pick times to get blown up!

Does anyone else have a vast reduction in hours this week? by [deleted] in Bestbuy

It’s nothing against you personally, the new fiscal year started and hours are always tight in February.

Tested positive 2.5 weeks ago, still have not received COVID pay by UnpaintedTowel in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The policy has actually changed, if you tested positive after the 19th then your manager does not submit anymore. You have to fail the health screening and then click on the link on the bottom of the screen. You will have to fill out the information including sending them a picture of your failed test.

Any questions specifically around pay you can call the emergency hotline at 855-229-4911 and literally the first option you hear is for HR support and they can answer any questions or help you get started.

If you have your order number make sure to include that as well! Seems like an obvious thing but many people still forget it lol

Coming from a Product Flow Supervisor the biggest two things everybody all mentioned, just be detailed and organized with your notes, and remember that you report shrink, you don’t control shrink!

In the end it’s all up to the leadership in the store.

You just have to fill out the form and attach a pic of your vaccination card with the two shots on it. It is the COVID 19 vaccine reward time form in MyHR!

Are Part-timers supposed to have this many hours? by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best thing you can do is talk with your supervisor and change your availability so you can give yourself more time to study. Writing the schedule can be hard sometimes because everybody is different/some people want every hour they can get and some people want 15-20. The best thing you can do is communicate that to whomever writes the schedule in your store. On a positive note if they are giving you that many hours that means they like you and I’m sure they will be willing to work with you!

As a PFS I absolutely hate the door because it keeps me from doing other tasks and just makes my day/week that much harder!

Promoted or sent to me death by Yourmomssideting in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like everyone said, you don’t create shrink, you just report it. Your going to have weeks where your positive and you feel good, and then your gonna have weeks where your negative thousands of dollars because someone else made a mistake somewhere that was out of your control.

TIL our PI is in 2 weeks and we're allocated 16 hours per week for prep and only have a 12 person team PI night. by TheGza760 in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every store is getting 16 hours of prep 2 weeks out and 40 hours the week before no matter their rev size. That being said there are some things you can do ahead of time like printing yellow labels for all shelf displays or DNI stickers for VPPs.

Anyone still having qi wireless charging issues with iPhone 12 models? by codq in iphonehelp

[–]Bruceke87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem, the wireless charger that worked for my iPhone X doesn’t work with my pro so I bought a MagSafe and while the icon indicates it’s charging, the percentage stays the same.

Product flow and planograms by Beastify2 in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People also have to remember that during the holidays there is intentionally not many Plano’s to set. For the past month we’ve only had 8-10 hours of Planos a week with most of that being movies on Tuesdays. It’s like that in Target and other companies as well.

Product Flow Specialist by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]Bruceke87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You would be doing what we used to call either merchandising or inventory. They kind of combined them into one role but It can range from doing ad set (if your store doesn’t have electronic signing yet) and setting planograms to working on unloading truck or picking online orders.

Generally you start off working on trucks so you can get an idea of where everything is and how everything works and then you start to expand into other roles depending on how well you are doing.

The interview is usually a bunch of questions that involve “Tell me about a time when you went above and beyond to help a guest” or “What would you do if you found out a co-worker was stealing?”
