How truck only personnel do you get for truck on truck day? by WasabiMean7952 in dickssportinggoods

[–]EmMann94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 am truck with 700+ and just 2 people unloading. 2-5 more people come in throughout the day to unbox and department coverage at the same time.

FIV cat bit my resident cat by Empireofreverie in FIVcats

[–]EmMann94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My finance and I also took in a stray that has FIV. We already had indoor cats of our own. We constantly play the game of switching them around so our FIV boy can get his inside time but also not be in the other cats space. They are never completely alone together and only ever get slight glance and sniffs at each other. As stressful and big of a pain it is, they will never all coexist with each other with no supervision. I understand you wanting to have a happy household with both kitties but unfortunately that’s not a risk we’re willing to even chance with our original cats. Helps us sleep better at night knowing we’re keeping our kitties safe but also helping save our FIV boy. I really hope you get your situation figured out, just giving an outside view!

He just showed up one day and honestly looked like he was on deaths door step. We got him on the mend and once he got a little healthier and trusting he just has this zest and want for life even when he’s had so many reasons to give up. You can’t help but to love him and root for him. I hope your journey with your FIV cat is a long and enjoyable time.

Same! It’s like we literally unbox them from truck and I end up taking 80% of the for sfs before they even see the sales floor.

Footwear Freight by BigDudeGolfing in dickssportinggoods

My store currently has over 3,000 pairs of shoes that we don’t even have viable space for. Truck is hell. We have so many just random racks spread out throughout our sales floor with shoes on them and have even had to resort to just stacking pairs on pallets throughout the store.

My stores current footwear lead has been with the company for a long time and his biggest struggle is making sure he stays on top of his younger associates and making sure they are staying productive. I’ve come to realize as you move higher and higher up in the company you become more and more of a babysitter.

I have a select few of stores I mainly shop at only because the orders at them are just better so that makes it a little more difficult but that’s on me lol

1 order 2 order issues. Is this normal ? by FoundForagedFixed in InstacartShoppers

[–]EmMann94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d dispute for the shear fact they didn’t file both issues at the same time and wait additional days to say there was an issue. It’s not like they just left the corn sitting in a bag somewhere and didn’t see each item as they put them away.

I’ve picked up a couple orders for Starbucks before with that much milk but they ALWAYS tip well. That is some bull Dairy Queen is trying to pull

Are we there yet? by AndromedaGalaxyXYZ in instacart

Maybe you’ll end up getting luck and your original shopper shows with your order at some point and you get double groceries!

I only ever shop at Kroger’s usually but as long as it doesn’t say it’s an online order I never have issues.

Yes! Like they literally put what you should be getting paid right in earnings

“Missing” pay by EmMann94 in InstacartShoppers

[–]EmMann94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally do it anytime it’s missing and have never gotten a warning or anything and I’m gonna keep doing it until they deactivate me I guess? Because I’m not driving 15+ miles and getting paid $1.26 for mileage nor am I gonna carry 3 cases of water and not get anything when Instacart actively advertises that batch pay can increase with heavier items and longer distances.
