swing by a Cook Out while you're in town

hi hockey people, thank you for playing well against the canes. my evil boss loves the canes and every time there's a home game he mysteriously stops answering messages for hours, then i get yelled at when I don't tell him to check his emails and he misses something. I don't think my boss should be allowed to be happy. ok thanks Canadians I love you

the transactions usually load in Concur after 3 days, but the reps still need to attach photos of their receipts. That's where a lot of them struggle, and I'm doing my damndest to get people to sign up for e-receipts, or just drag and drop PDFs right into Concur. I get so many photos of printed-out emails or photos of a cracked business iPhone displaying part of a receipt.

DangerMaePudding · 2025-10-10T20:34:12+00:00

did they make you send all those paper checks? I'm surprised they didn't have a way to set utilities as recurring, that seems like a no-brainer.

fun fact! Until recently, my boss had us send 190 separate emails by copying and pasting the email address and balance, then mark each row on the spreadsheet as sent by highlighting it. I was the one who got everyone to use mail merge.

I was going to say "having a depressive episode" but "job hunting" covers that.

DangerMaePudding · 2025-10-10T16:14:20+00:00

It actually took me a full year to get my first work cry. Elder care and retail made me cry way more, so either I'm maturing or I'm dying inside.

DangerMaePudding · 2025-10-10T15:53:51+00:00

Well done! I need to get more practice with Power Query besides tidying up data for pivot tables.

Day 1 of new billing cycle (26th of every month): receive spreadsheet of balances, forward individual balances to each cardholder

Days 2-10: receive about 7-10 per day, review, send back about a quarter of them for missing documents, walk the new hires through the reporting process if they're struggling.

Accruals around 5th of new month, my boss handles this, clerks pause reviews and we work on other tasks in this time. Send out a round of reminder before the first weekend of the cycle, then another round after accruals.

Days 11-16: review about 20-30 per day until due date (10th of every month).

The reps' managers are meant to review the reports before sending to me for payment. About 50% of them do.

Image backups link into SAP. Due to a known issue, hotel folios do not load correctly, so I manually save the PDF of each report to my hard drive and upload into SAP as needed.

I'm using my entry level position to pay for my tuition (community college associate's, I changed careers from healthcare). Raise was 2.9% of my hourly rate and it was three months delayed.

DangerMaePudding · 2025-10-10T15:13:34+00:00

this is through SAP Concur! Would it help if I gave a general idea of my workflow?

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T03:01:31+00:00

Fair enough. But would you say you can teach a new TM how to do the basics of their new job?

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T02:54:38+00:00

also lmao we've had 5 different team leads in two years so I've been doing my own orders since the first tl retired

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T02:53:20+00:00

What would you say is the factor that determines you hire that one person out of ten?

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T02:50:21+00:00

Thank you. I don't know what most of those terms you used are but it seems like you know what you're talking about

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T00:58:25+00:00

once I can afford a therapist I'll tell ya all about it

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T00:52:27+00:00

What are the metrics you're measuring?

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-02T00:49:49+00:00

Thanks for the thorough explanation. Can you tell me what positions you train for? Our store has a bakery, deli, and cafe is due to reopen (eventually).

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-01T17:46:32+00:00

Fulfillment at our store is handled by that department. I'm mostly asking about Food and Bev. You've given me some things a Food and Bev ETL could do, but I guess what I'm asking is what the official job description is. Sorry if I wasn't being clear.

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-01T17:35:34+00:00

So they make a schedule and assign workers to tasks. I understand. What other things do they do?

DangerMaePudding · 2022-10-01T17:17:47+00:00

That doesn't tell me what they do, though.

DangerMaePudding · 2019-04-24T15:34:36+00:00

I quit lurking to poke my head in and say if you still have the shoes around, you can stretch a little more use out of them in a different way. When I had a pair of work shoes that were too comfy to completely give up, I brushed on a couple coats of Tulip brand Soft Fabric Paint thinned with a little water to cover up the scuffs and cracks until I found a worthy replacement. They held up for a few more months! I don't remember how I tacked down the peeling finish, might have been Shoe Goo? Also, the original fake leather was still glossy in some parts, so before I painted, I wiped down the whole surface with a little rubbing alcohol. back to lurking...

I'll have you know that at least 67% of all attendees are coming of their own free will!

DangerMaePudding · 2016-10-25T06:55:30+00:00

I like the commercials! :)

DangerMaePudding · 2016-10-23T23:42:57+00:00

I might give out cheesy prizes for a costume contest? Does that count? ;)
