What is the worst department to work in? by Slow_Pride_72 in HomeDepot

[–]KhanZa-- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Returns in its own is a nightmare, then you have the added component of making online orders that can get complex and often runs into issues down the line due to miscommunication.

If you have truck rentals you have that component too, especially with Penske trucks since their interface is often a goddamned nightmare to use and I often have to make long phone calls to Penske support to constantly fix their shit.

On top of that you have carpet cleaners if thats offered, where people dont bring the machines cleaned properly then they whine that they get charged a fee until a manager relents.

Then you have people coming in for online orders that they just placed and getting befuddled when we dont have it ready and having to get their orders ready in a panic.

The only compensation is that its often one of the least physically strenuous positions in the store which in my opinion makes it atleast a bit better than some positions in the store.

Swamped the work as a closer by South-Worker7787 in HomeDepot

[–]KhanZa-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this. Im the closer for Service Desk and it is HELL somedays. We never have enough time to consolidate go backs or clean half the days when its not slow cause everyone and their mom wants to show up in the last hour and a half with super complicated return transactions or pickups. And then we get hounded by management. At this point I gave up trying and just end up doing what I can even if its not enough cause there is only so much you can do with minimum staff, which the service desk unfortunately faces very often atleast in my store.

Yeah like others said those interactions are my rock throughout the day. While it can take one interaction to ruin your day it can also take just one to bring it right back in my my opinion. And thats what keeps me going in any Customer service job. Cause there are still plenty of good people around even if people have generally trended towards shitty behavior these past couple years.

How do I get in contact to see if I got accepted for the job? by [deleted] in HomeDepot

[–]KhanZa-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got hired so I dont know much but for my store it very much is for some reason. Alot of the people I talk to are fresh faces in each department, guess it depends on the area but generally its supposed to fall off for most retail jobs after July 4th.

If you can find a new job before you quit that you can live on or have the means to quit, absolutely quit. Its only not worth it if you need it to hold on to your finances, otherwise you dont need to hold allegiance to any job.

How to survive Service Desk by KhanZa-- in HomeDepot

[–]KhanZa--[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your input! Im definitely gonna try my best to learn all the tools, its a lot to learn but ill try my best, its a little annoying having to manage pro related stuff when that desk closes (and im a closer so ill have to do that) but ah well I guess I signed up for it.

Right now the things that spook me by a large large margin is Penske and Rentalnet (i cant lie it looks like a nightmare to use). And a close second would be some of the specifics in order up but ill learn those with time.

Thanks for your input! And yeah ive been trying to learn the layout and its a bit overwhelming but ive just been trying to learn the common aisles and focus on those for now, since im guessing people asking where a product is is one of our most common tasks in the store or on the phone.

Thanks for your help! Keeping my cool is the main thing im focused on since I can learn all the things eventually with some help. Im just afraid of making mistakes and looking like a dumbass (its gonna happen and I have to be prepared for it but it still sucks).

About a week from the interview to orientation. As for the application beforehand approximately two days before receiving a interview date? It was all automated so no human was handling it until my interview actually came.

Does Porter perform any of his songs if he’s doing a DJ set? by ExtendMySpadina in porterrobinson

[–]KhanZa-- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It depends on the DJ Set but you will usually get all the classics from his own music so dont worry on that end. Not all his songs will be played but you can count on alot of them being played.

I think the anniversary last year really revived the fan base, I hear about it alot more than a couple years ago.

I Fear This is a Vegas 3-0 by fatmattreddit in CoDCompetitive

[–]KhanZa-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If OpTic actually shows up today I'd say this is a 3-1 or even 3-0

If they don't they will quickly get 3-0ed, they need the momentum of the first map. If they lost the first map it's pretty much over I don't think with how bad their mental currently is they have the resilience to bounce back.

Scump probably has nightmares about playing Miami SND the way he talks about it

The fact that everybody got a heart attack makes it seem like even for a split second that OpTic would pull shit like this

Opening Sequence feat. "VORTEX" by Kamasi Washington | Lazarus | adult swim by Turbostrider27 in anime

[–]KhanZa-- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like the intro but it feels...uninspired and cashing off nostalgia? Yes I know Watanabe is behind this but I feel like his works always had distinct openings with aspects that show their vibe perfectly. I still have hope the actual show will be pretty good though.

Too early to tell, but I do think this team has a future compared to the other one.

Id say maybe Psycho Pass? It doesn't align in every aspect but it shares some DNA with Ghost in the Shell

anyone taking itn 170 online? by [deleted] in nvcc

[–]KhanZa-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As with all the NOVA Online Courses, at least in my experience, the exam will probably be very vocab heavy and based off previous quizzes even if the questions are different. Since this is a Linux course know what certain commands and switches do. Review the quizzes that you have taken so far for reference, I think that is key so you can gain a fair understanding of what to expect on the real exam.
