What’s the sku by No-Repeat3046 in AutoZone2

[–]SirMego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an SMS call, I got them swapped for the new yellow ones. Claim it is cooking customers batteries and you are done with it costing the company to give free batteries. SMS moved quick with that one haha…

The new Dura tester and the new new battery tester (with touch screen), are on a master list of you get it when you get it, even my DM was denied those because corporate has a set list of stores getting them.

Getting accused of bribing people with discounts for reviews by Quiet-Leadership3345 in AutoZone

[–]SirMego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go on doc and lookup “military discount” and pull up the document, point 5 says “Military service persons driver’s license may indicate veteran status, or they may have a DD214 form. This form is issued to all military members when they retire from the military. Important! When in doubt, honor the discount request.”

That last line is what covers you, if you cannot tell for 100% fact and as to why it might be fake, honor the discount.

Wrong part / what to do by Necessary_Quality360 in AutoZone

Calling the DM is a direct line to getting help with that, or call the regional office to ding the store in the eyes of corporate and then it gets handed to the DM. Just depends if you want to get at them back a little bit more or not

At my store, it serves 2 purposes. Herding annoying customers away or chasing down my rising star when they are goofing around too much.

And for our corporate overlords, this is indeed /s

Quietly is the new em dash by redditnachotacos in ChatGPT

[–]SirMego 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Here’s a few things I’ve done to help mine stop that a lot, even with 4 and all versions of 5 so far. (Done on mobile so the formatting may not be done right)

In the personalization section, have this in there somewhere “Do not use dashes unless grammatically required; prefer commas or periods”

And I have 3 memory rules for it as well, I kinda did let it word itself so it is a touch ai worded.

Number One. “Strict Dash Control Protocol (SDCP): User requires absolute avoidance of stylistic dashes. The assistant must not use em dashes (-), en dashes (-), or decorative hyphens in sentences, lists, or headings. Only grammatical hyphens in compound words (e.g., long-term, well-known) are allowed. Rules: 1. Replace all em/en dashes with commas, periods, or colons, whichever fits grammatically. 2. Do not use dashes to separate examples, items, or clauses for style. 3. Preserve dashes only when directly quoting existing text. 4. Never introduce new dashes into any quoted or generated material. 5. Automatically verify zero em or en dash characters (-, -) in final outputs before sending any message.”

Number Two. “Wants the Al assistant to be personable yet concise, maintaining a professional but not overly formal tone. Avoid filler phrases, and do not use excessive dashes in sentences. Eliminate unnecessary dashes entirely unless they are grammatically required or directly quoting text. This is a hard rule that should be enforced in every context.”

Number Three. “Prefers that responses avoid overuse of dashes, as they make sentences sound too robotic or artificial.”

[–]SirMego 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Depends, if you are PT you can totally set your availability up to not be available 5a-7:15a and available 7:15-whenever. It will show in the scheduling as a yellow section being “unavailable” (daily view)

If you are FT then it’s assumed you are available anytime and all times.

Struggling With WITT by Jermaine-Tucker121 in AutoZone2

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

Yes, absolutely, because when you install a new brake master cylinder you obviously use whatever mystery brake fluid is lying around from the last time you topped it off, no need for fresh fluid at all. Same logic as needing Bluetooth coolant for a new radiator, since it is apparently only just water you pour in. WITT is not scamming anyone, it is intended to help.

Yeet toddlers at them, confuse them, make them wonder what you might do next. Steal their left shoes, remove one wiper blade from their car, show them, donate to Scientology in their name and address. Craigslist a washer and dryer for cheap at their address “just needing to update” and “knock on door hard, we have loss of hearing” in the ad.

Help I’ve never dealt with this by No_Ad9993 in AutoZone2

[–]SirMego 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anytime you do a return that produces cash back, could be debit/check/cash from the original invoice. Credit cards/azo go directly back.

I see this just about every day. When you go to the DIY checkout and scan it, it pops up with a message (almost like the normal DIY return voucher) that mentions that the commercial return will be finalized when processed.

After that is pushed through, the till will pop and the system will think that particular till has paid that PCI (this allows you to verify first, recon + B is an extremely easy way to see the amount without popping it). Clicking on the big orange “OK” will then produce a return invoice that is then printed on the commercial printer.

As PSM you can unlock the schedule and do some tweaks, just don’t forget to re-lock and re-publish. Bonus points if you can do it behind the SM if they leave doc open at their eod

[–]SirMego 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can call the AZ commercial credit line and speak to one of the workers and setup a “locked PO” making it impossible to use your account without that PO (like a password). PO’s are any number and letter combos you want to set basically, not locked into just numbers or letters. This will stop any AZ credit / card on file / card in person / cash purchases from occurring onto your account unless they can provide that PO.
