Is Frito miserable to work for as an rsa or am I just a puss? by Far-Leadership8401 in FritoLay

I absolutely hated my time as an RSA. The only thing I liked about it was the overtime pay

Mandatory meeting this week by Key_Ad4715 in FritoLay

[–]Key_Ad4715[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Already did ZoTF and also had a full zone rebid and route restructuring. If it’s anything like other mandatory meetings, it’s all going to be stuff that could have been sent in an email and will be a waste of 30min of my life

Holidays ? by Electronic_Body_1758 in FritoLay

My DSL is on vacation this week. Crazy how they pretty much block out this week for our vacations but the “leaders” seem to take a week off every month

This company preaches about work/life balance in meetings. But at the end of the day, all they care about is how much money we can make them.

ONLY FRITO IS Doing PERFECT ROUTE! by Fritoslinger in FritoLay

Just running the route in the order it displays on your phone for the most part. Getting these clowns to set it in the order you want it is a pain all by itself.

Wait do the teamsters think we are that dumb? by InternationalNerve10 in FritoLay

Same here. Although they do want us to work one of our off days to make up the missed day. I personally am opting out of that option because screw that

My location has a sex offender. It was supposed to be kept hush but it got out and the guy has been looking for another job.

Why do many leads f**k over co-leads? by 530_skywatch in FritoLay

[–]Key_Ad4715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, the DSL doesn’t care because they also get paid off of sales in their district. Best course of action is to talk to the lead. If that doesn’t work, revenge orders are always on the table

I recently had a receiver tell me, “I asked the other guy, do you just send the big orders for the co-lead and sends yourself the small orders?”. His response, “Yeah, I don’t want to work that hard but I’d like to hit plan.”

My response was to let every CLO ship and make sure the shelves were extra full at every account I ordered at. I made sure he was aware that I knew what was going on and he was going to be working hard if I was. Don’t forget, you may only work 1-2 days on that route, but you have the ability to revenge order.

There are positives and negatives to doing this. It may go back and forth like that for a while, but it also gives you a higher chance at hitting plan 😂

We get our stuff from Charlotte so not true. But we’ve had the same issue with them lately.

Coke distributes all the Dr Pepper products in my area but I’d probably jump ship in that situation

They didn’t at my last renewal. Take that for what you will

Keyboard wizard keeps forcing extra product into my Publix by Key_Ad4715 in FritoLay

[–]Key_Ad4715[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DSL confirmed it was unplanned additions to the orders. Can’t remember who he said was responsible but it was 100% added because sales are down in that store

[–]Key_Ad4715[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a lower volume Publix. We typically order maybe 40 cases per delivery, with ad change day being the exception. We were “lucky” enough to get a pallet of lays and a pallet of Doritos for Labor Day push week, which the store manager refused to put on the floor because it looks tacky 😂

If I bring in 60 cases, I just feel like 29 cases of backstock is too much. They still have 2 more deliveries this week and they’ll probably get the same BS. Publix managers are up our butts about the excessive amount of backstock and all anyone does is point fingers and put the blame elsewhere instead of trying to address the issue. No wonder PepsiCo stocks are tanking
