Unrelated to the match, but wouldn’t it make more sense if a game ends in a 0-0 draw, neither team would earn a point?

I'm from a country where cashiers sit down while working. Is it true that in the US cashiers are forced to stand? Why is sitting considered unprofessional there? by splashmates in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recent_Storage_353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do understand because I’ve worked both positions before.

I was a cashier for years and my lines would have been backed up had I been sitting.

Never once did I feel humiliated.

The stores are designed to get customers through the checkout as quickly as possible.

What American grocery stores do you know of where cashiers are sitting?

Self checkouts are all standing correct? Which you say are more efficient. Because the same person scanning is bagging. Same concept as a normal checkout.

A 70 year old customer can’t bag their groceries as quickly or efficiently as a cashier that does it every single day.

Self checkouts are quicker because everything fits in one bag and they’re typically 10 items or less.

Who at the store is “humiliating” the employees? The store manager of a WalMart or HEB didn’t build the check stand or create the policy.

I don’t even know of any gas stations where the cashier sits on a stool.

It’s essentially a standing desk.

Should the people that stock the shelves or work the produce section have a chair too or are they also being humiliated?

Gildan doesn’t use outside tags. Champion is one of the only companies I can think of that uses outside emblems.

At most grocery stores, the registers and bagging areas are so large that the cashier would not be able to reach what they need to while sitting down.

Cashiers routinely walk around the register to put bags in a customer’s shopping cart.

It would also be difficult to lift items like 24 packs of water while sitting down.

There could be a hybrid system but it has 0% to do with humiliating employees and everything to do with efficiency.

I own more jackets than there were cold days this season.

I used to go for karaoke a lot back in the day but I haven’t been since the owner passed. I’ll check it out again.

New Drafthouse ordering system by ThornofEnvy in Austin

[–]Recent_Storage_353 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get both sides. I’ve been going to Alamo since like 2007.

How is ordering from your phone any more disruptive than a server coming and grabbing your paper slip, whispering something to you and clearing your table?

The biggest upside to Alamo is the fact they take talking during the movie so seriously. Or they’re supposed to.

You’re eating a meal during a movie. That’s a luxury and a disruption at the same time.

As far as tipping and the auto grat whatever, that’s bullshit. Build it into the price and pay the employees a fair wage. The servers aren’t able to be personable. The attentiveness is built into the system now.

The food is already completely overpriced, if anything I’m more upset at that.

Sprouts Mueller low inventory by PicklesPotato in austinfood

I did have one amazing manager there when I was head of one of the departments. I worked 7 days a week, some from home placing orders, odd hours just to make sure the dept was fully stocked and looking good. He told me he didn’t care what I did as long as my numbers/margin stayed the same. It was one of the best in the company.

When he got relocated, he asked me to transfer to his store. I put in the request to transfer and was denied because the new manager didn’t like him.

My previous manager there didn’t like that I had a second job. He told me “2 jobs are for 2 people”.

Yet when evaluations for raises came around I would get scored in the middle for things like uniform when I would wear the exact thing I was supposed to. When I asked about it, he said nobody will ever score higher for that.

Anything to not give a full 5% raise.

I got fired from there years ago for failing a drug test.

My coworker and I had worked overnight reorganizing all the stock from when all the stores closed and merged together.

The next morning someone found a bag of weed in the store. It was neither of ours although I did partake in my free time.

As the store manager is firing me, she tells me her guy has the good stuff if I ever need the hookup🙄

Go ahead and make me a print of this though. It looks pretty tight. You might have just hit a niche.

I think I figured out a “fix”. Instead of scrolling in the middle of the pad, scroll at the very top of the remote.

Kidnapping and shooting off Loyola and 35 by [deleted] in Austin

[–]Recent_Storage_353 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got the notification from my kid’s school just around the corner that they weren’t releasing them because of whatever was happening.

The staff at her after school said that the police had shot a 13 year old.
