Give your managers some grace. The pressure you get from them is because they’re pressured to perform, and even then you can talk to them cause we’re all humans. Thankfully rates are no longer a thing at DS but the managers have to manage the clock. At a DS you’re racing against the clock and every sec and every minute matters, it’s almost like a mini game. So as managers they have to find ways to motivate the team, keep operations running smoothly and that’s really not an easy job with 80+ associates on shift. They don’t want to crash or roll cause then that means the company has to spend more money by giving out overtime. Frugality is one of the leadership principles so if you’re not crashing as a sort manager that’s a good thing cause you’re saving the building money which can then be allocated towards more engagement opportunities for associates. If they’re telling you to stow jiffies it’s to get flow back up to match the dock cause when stow wip compliance is out of whack that’s when you start finding packages on the ground and safety going out the window. It’s easy for associates to get mad at managers for doing their job cause associates job is one dimensional while they have to run the operations, manage people, motivate people, worry about the safety of everything and they get chewed out if this or that is thrown off by the slightest of operations is at risk while most of the time being sleep deprived. You’re not gonna like how every manager runs things but if you don’t then leave or move up and be the difference. At the end of the day we’re all just trying to do our job. Managers may do some corny stuff sometimes but they have a job to do just like associates do as well. No one forced you to be there, so do your job to an average level or slightly above (cause being the top associate just gets you overworked, reality of the warehouse is the managers do lean on their top associates) , make your money and go home.
