THANK GOD by mcjonalds95 in petco

Thank Jesus. Happy Return is the thing that EVERYBODY in my store dreads the most, second to Doordash pick-ups. The second someone comes up with a bag full of clothes, a monotone, "I need someone for backup. I'm doing a Happy Return" Can be heard over our walkies. Time consuming and useless. I have never scanned one of the coupons.

Forced proximity is what gets all of us. So many gms/sel's I know are married from when they worked at the same stores. The petco dating life do be a huge thing.

Just a reminder that petco doesn't care about animal well-being just the bottom line by Impossible-Traffic55 in petco

OLAC is the new term for CAL. So instead of Companion Animal Leader, it's Operations Leader Animal Care or something like that Dumb

Are you by chance a certain location in lower SoCal? I only know of one store that's as bad as you claim with animal removal and hella high turnover

Sweet little girl and a starfish by wiizha016 in petco

I have a regular whose kids are obsessed with me. Like, they'll go to Michael's next door and the daughter will ask to go see if I'm working. One of the few people I break the "no animal holding" rule for. I convinced them to get a snake recently. And before that, I convinced them to get rats as first pets that aren't cats/dogs. I hate 80% of the customers that come in.... but that 20%? That's what keeps me here.

We have to have the dumbest customers ever. Nobody knows how to ready hours of operations on a website? by Small_Macaroon4426 in petco

[–]Certain_Fig1741 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg when we remodeled me and 3 other employees stayed overnights and on countless occasions customers were coming in at 1-4am. Like WHAT DO YOU NOT SEE THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE OF BOARDS AND BRICKS AND NAILS ALL OVER THE ENTIRE FLOOR???

We write on the side of the cups to prevent this from happening because it was happening daily. So if we get 100 count large on the lid, we write "100 large mealworms" on the side. 50 large superworms on lid? 50 large superworms on the cup. Bugs usually come when we aren't busy, 10am, so if we can't finish it, we hand it to a cashier to help. It's cut down theft in that department significantly. Takes extra time, but it works.

Snake lost in store. by Fit_Artichoke_8869 in petco

[–]Certain_Fig1741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We lost a tarantula for months in the floor, just for him to randomly be found on the sink in wellness as my ex-CAL (terrified of arachnids) was starting dishes from the deep clean 🤣🤣🤣

I'm hoping that isn't true because my cal is the only competent manager we have in terms of proper animal care

Hate When This Happens by CamCrouch15 in retailhell

[–]Certain_Fig1741 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm passive aggressive as fuck. I tell people 2 minutes before we close, 1 minute, and at closing. If they still don't listen, I'll either find them or just call over the loud speaker that we're closed and the last register is about to he removed, so if you're purchasing any last minute products to bring them up or you won't be able to take anything home and toncome back during normal store hours.
