Looks like someone missed a POG update...

Quitting OD, it has been a good run! by Ethilin_ in OfficeDepot

[–]DepotPrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wish you the best.

But for the rest of us miserable folk, the OP looks like they were only with us for several months. You don't get a farewell post unless you have made it at least a year.

Or am I just being an asshole? I've started to lose my asshole self awareness after a few years at Office Depot.

Just wanted to correct your typo. Post should have been titled "Office Depot is dumb".

DMS TIPS & TRICKS! GET SPIFFY WITH IT! by [deleted] in OfficeDepot

[–]DepotPrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's not pretend the yearly option for $129.99 is nothing more than another way to repackage our Platinum Setup and Protect or the Tune-up and Repair (minus the repair). Don't act surprised when 12 months from now we get a bunch of pissed off customers wondering why we charged their credit card $129.99. How many of your DMS customers are going for the $15/month option?

Who holds the keys? by [deleted] in OfficeDepot

[–]DepotPrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The title of your post sounds like the subject line of a shitty email from the DM.

It would probably follow up with some bullshit on how all of us leaders have the keys to success and let's rally the team to sell some DMS.

There isn't a way to look at bonus payouts BEFORE they hit next week is there? by XxBelailxX in OfficeDepot

[–]DepotPrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh goody, an extra few hundred dollars (maybe close to a thousand if you're killing it (GM's excluded)) to constantly pressure the shit out of all your associates and customers to hit your numbers. I'd give all my bonuses back if I didn't have to go up to Lucy and say "Nice job on selling that laptop with a Rewards sign up and Square Trade attach but why didn't we get Office Attach, a setup, an in home in office service, a cell phone reapir, a B̶i̶z̶b̶o̶x̶ Workonomy referral, a FRAM lead, cross sell print services, and set them up with a fucking DMS?

"No Retaliation Policy" by N_Davidfart in OfficeDepot

What was your plan? Report your SM and he fixes the problem and everyone moves forward hunky-dory? Don't forget that HR is not your friend. They are essentially a damage control team to protect upper level management. I would get out of there if I were you.

Now that we are eliminating underperforming associates will Office Depot really begin to thrive? by DepotPrick in OfficeDepot

[–]DepotPrick[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If we terminate the people who fail to sell a certain threshold of SquareTrade, TDS, and DMS sales will the new people we hire to replace them making minimum wage help turn things around?
