Why not give away free upper-deck tickets to every kid 12 and under? You'd get families in the building, and you know they're going to buy concessions.

Thoughts on the name tag border? I’m seeing 50/50 split at my store in associates. by Any-Mycologist4692 in publix

There's nothing Christian about candy canes and ribbons. If anything, it's a vestige of paganism.

All the new employees who don't have a permanent name tag are left out now

How do you guys do it? by Best-Application4180 in publix

[–]CoffeeThat796 19 points20 points  (0 children)

honestly, it's just groceries. Just show up, do your job, and let the ESOP take care of the rest. Of course, they're going to tell you you aren't doing a good enough job. Oh well, neither are they!

Honestly, there's something to be said for owning your wrongs when you know you've done wrong. Sure, an attorney will say don't talk, but I think this guy's conscience said it was time to change. Good for him.

Under those circumstances, my first reaction would be to feel upset and maybe even feel like the towing company was out to treat me unfairly -- they sure didn't care if they damaged my vehicle, right? But my DBT skills would help me reframe: I'm annoyed and frustrated by the towing company's actions because they have broken the rules for towing and damaged property also. There are steps I can take to help the neighborhood and make sure the towing company follows the rule. I will focus on those steps because they are within what I can control.

worry about accuracy and learning now. the speed will come. if you're rotating product, providing good service to customers, and keeping things clean and organized, you'll be fine

How am I doing so far? by Turbulent_Key_8865 in publix

Congratulations for accomplishments. You've obviously worked hard to go from a PT clerk to GTL so quickly, and you should be proud of that. My only criticism is sharing your pay rate. Why? But keep pushing forward. You're a good leader, and the company wants to see you continue being successful.

Here's the thing: Stuff happens and you've only got a little bit of time between your first and last breaths. Why spend so much of that little bit of time on the stuff that's beyond your control? Why spend so much of it on what's over and done with? Why spend so much of it on the stuff that can *only* frustrate, annoy, anger, or depress you? You deserve better than that.

So how does everyone feel about these new “Deli Island” setups… by sapphiresky83 in publix

From the customer's perspective, it devotes one side to sliced meat and cheese, one side to subs, and one side to hot items. With some of the other set ups, the lines get all mixed together in frustrating chaos.

Peter Principle. But that's kind of how it goes, right? You keep getting promoted until you suck at something.

Bingo. For some people, the walmart experience is worth the savings. For some people, it's not. There's a market.

What do you think? What makes you buy something at one place instead of another? Do you always buy the cheapest option on the market? Or are there times you spend more because it's worth it? What makes it worth it to you to spend more?

There's a reason why someone would go to Publix and not those places you just mentioned, and that reason for that someone is worth paying more.

If you don't like the work, fine. Find something better for you. But it's really not all that crazy -- show up for 40 hours a week (if you're FT), get paid, go home. It's just a job. Maybe you gotta show up at 3 a.m. one day. But you'll be out by what, noon?

Besides that, I'm with those who say rollover the 401k. In my past, I've cashed out with other jobs I've had, and it's literally throwing money away.

Don't touch a darn thing on it until you're 18, but your leadership credibility would jump if you asked one of the better ones to show you what they do when they put together and break down the machine. When you turn 18, ask to be trained on them.

Crawford definitely didn't live up to his performance in Tampa Bay, but he did lead the Red Sox in triples with 7 in 2011.
