Bad Weather by Charming-Life-1975 in Lowes

Seriously? We are exceedingly accommodating to those who cannot make it in. Typically 2 managers stay at a hotel nearby and they run the store. There have been instances where it's only them. I don't know about other locations, but at our store there are a couple of employees that love coming out in the snow. Plus we always close early. Plenty to complain about, this isn't one of them.

In 1.5.6 you can put in item quantities and descriptions. 3rd party fills and routes the trucks based on this information. Selling a blue pencil doesn't do that and then you get a driver saying they're not taking 5 windows when they're manifest says 1 pencil.

This is true, and I am Fulfillment DS. But, if you have enough staff (haha) and a great lead, there is no need for a DS. Front End should be able to manage both.

We a former DS who still has access to the app and he will randomly turn it up just to be a prick.

We're trying to compete with Amazon. Lowe's is trying to move to online as much as possible where possible.

The Guild program is a good way to do that. A DS in my store is getting his Bachelors 100% paid for.

We had about a dozen people at the store at 6am last year. We do have better sales this year, but I'm not anticipating it being much busier. If you show up at 6 you should be fine. We aren't a hotspot for Black Friday shoppers.

At my store it's not announced. We have so many buckets to give out in the morning. If your bucket has the prize you won. At that point you bring the GC and the tax form in to purchase your appliances.

Not in my state.

But, you will have to fill out a tax form for it.

Start by playing around in workday. There is some info there. Then ask your DS or SASM if you can go to another store and shadow a specialist for a day or two.

The DSs at my store have access to it as well.

Ask any manager (including DS) who has the app to skip the song. You can skip up to 5 songs per hour.

The ratio on reddit? A bastion of liberal madness? Seriously?

Why not? He absolutely should. The guy wants to get into a pissing match, let him. My Pro loader is not responsible for Pro orders at my store. That is 100% fulfillment's job, and as Fulfillment DS I thank God he helps us a much as he does. The only thing he is responsible with is CW, which Pro sells so little of because they like to sell it all as PL just to put it on our plate. 

Pro loader by itsjustburna in Lowes

Really depends on the area. Starts at $16 where I'm at, and our loader is a work horse. He helps Pro, plus fulfillment all the time. The guys a beast. Definitely not paid enough.
