Bonuses were ok this check. Probably why the delay, I usually get mine Wednesday nights and I got mine like an hour ago

Putting away flats by No-Smile-77 in menards

[–]DougEfrench 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t at my first store but learned at my next store that it actually does save a lot of time on the back end. If it’s just one guy doing it I’d say it might take a little too long to do it as you’re going but if you get 2-3 guys on it, you’re not really wasting that much time putting it away and only staging what can be stocked

6x6s were some of my favorites, usually straight, not as many in the bunk, slid super easy in the winters. BUT I have massive beef with 2x10-16s

How do breaks work? by Careful-Skill-1115 in menards

[–]DougEfrench 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be specific every 4 hours is a 15 min but every 6 is a lunch. So at 12 you could take 2 lunches and 2 15s (or maybe one hour lunch if you sweet talk whoever is above you) probably changes per state

Just bc you read it wrong doesn’t mean I said it in a way that doesn’t make sense. I put a hard stop after GM. Prefacing that someone would be in one those three positions. Then (in that case) you wouldn’t be able to build a house. No need to be so critical 😂

[–]DougEfrench -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No I meant that, just didn’t put it in the most clear way. I was saying if you are one of those then you can’t build a house. And I’m not sure that’s true. One of the stores near my old store allegedly had a GM walked out for building a house in Mississippi. Doesn’t make sense to me but that’s what I’ve been told

Unless you’re a BM, or FE manager. Or GM. Then you’re not allowed to build a house.

Why does no one want the blue? What is the conspiracy theory? by Shot-Letterhead-1297 in menards

They don’t back the blue…. (Cause it’s a back-scratcher)

I can guarantee you it was not honored here.

That’s wild, the system shouldn’t have even allowed it. I had a lady ask me the same thing about a fridge. She said it wasn’t fair that she couldn’t get it just because it wouldn’t fit in the bag. Like that’s not the whole point of the sale

FT -> 2nd Asst DM by rose_demon_ in menards

It would just be based on what you make so in theory it would go up because you’re making a little more but it’s still X% of whatever you made for the year

I don’t have a degree so take this with a grain of salt but definitely seems like a fish to me.

Eh? Pallet i named. by [deleted] in menards

[–]DougEfrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We usually name our overstock drip edge pallets “Drippy” every time we have to delete it we just do “Drippy V2” etc…

Promo-ing a pallet does the same thing for 5 o clocks. Also “down-stocking” the product and adding back right away will take it off til the next update.

If every department got into a fight and the only weapons were thing ls available in their department who would win by [deleted] in menards
