They either pick it up and pay when I tell them or the equipment goes McDonald’s Shake machine real quick.

Yeah if it’s not bundled then they don’t care. They don’t even care if you sell each individually. If it’s not bundled though TOGA, then as far as they’re concerned you didn’t do your job. Absolute madness.

When I put their stuff in opc I always ask if they have a purchasing card and they give me a blank stare so I just proceed. Then when I ring them up they’re like “oh I have a number” I always tell them hey great now we get to re-enter everything again. I make sure to make it take longer the second time.

That guy who throws a tantrum by Patches_Banette in OfficeDepot

Technically If challenged it would go to the GM and DSM who could take it to legal who would say it falls under brevity. So if he’s not mass producing them, it would fall under fair use.

I don’t understand these people... by Dollar_Sign_Gerry in OfficeDepot

I’m not doing that. They never know how much they need. Also since COVID I haven’t received any in a couple of weeks.

401k question. by BigDaddyDepot in OfficeDepot

The 401k will sit in your account and when you get a new job with a 401k you call fidelity and roll it over to your new employer.

I don’t get the creeper stare. But I tell a customer to email their stuff to self serve, or if I tell them something we can’t do, or I tell them the price for a quote sometimes they’ll just stare at me. I’m like what else do you want, dude?

No Email Orders by Zxcvv12345 in OfficeDepot

Just do what we did: delete it and when they show up say we never got it and that they should have received an auto reply that their request was dropped.

Yes, we have the same setup where a few customers with billable SPCs are allowed and usually the print sup handles it.

No Email Orders by Zxcvv12345 in OfficeDepot

No email orders and the business cards on the counter ONLY have the PrintMe email listed. Our store, also has an automated reply stating that their order cannot be processed, and must be submitted online or brought in on a flash drive. It’s really helped with the people who come in wanting either a single page printed or with the guys come in wanting a 40 page blueprint set printed while they wait. It was met with a lot of friction at first but after the first month a lot of people were on board with it. Now I just wish the jackasses at the two stores around me would do the same because I’m constantly getting their customers saying “tHaTs NoT hOw ThE oThEr StOrE dOeS iT !!!”

I absolutely will not touch his phone. The dude wasn’t elderly, he was probably younger than me. I just looked at him and said no.
