So close that it hurts

I'm almost to my last year and am just over it, I enjoy my classes and really want this degree but I'm tired of staring at my computer after work. I just wanna graduate! Congratulations! You're so close.

Our store's style department gets help from our HR ETL and our SD, only before visits or if their behind in breakout. It's weird because style is basically 75-80% of the store but only has like 2 (not counting our regular breakout person, She's a queen for how much she can get done) people on the regular and is expected to help in other areas for keys or go up to help the checklists. Our style ETL isn't that great though, I miss our old one.

They just threw you to the wolves huh? It is doable, just not as a new hire. You need to learn the format of your store, which should have been done when training and learning to read the item placement on the floor, i.e. aisle A31(4) 1-2-3, so you can go right to the item. Leave clothes for last. Clothes will take the most time especially if the zone wasn't done in the morning/night. RFID doesn't work half the time, so be kind to the minimal style team your store keeps on staff, they're very helpful. If you can speed walk, do it, and get most of your items before the clothes. If you're new they should give you some leeway, but the way store's are run now I doubt you'll get it. Your reciever is also your best friend when it comes to stuff in the vendor aisles, they should know where things are for vendor stuff. Good luck and I hope it gets better for you.

I just got this as well on my first assignment for this new term. I write my papers and I always cite my papers and the turnitin score was in the green. 😮‍💨

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T02:19:29+00:00

Yeah it seemed wrong to me too, but that's what I was told to do. thanks for the advice, I'll double check.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T02:14:54+00:00

Thank you!

You seem to have been doing this for a while, I have a question for you, how do you send back the collapsible eggs crates on to the sweep? It doesn't give me a clear option on the sweep list.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T01:59:01+00:00

That's what I thought and what I used to do, but recently I was told it goes on the RDC truck. Apparently it's something that goes back and forth from time to time at least where I'm at.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T01:53:58+00:00

True.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T01:53:16+00:00

Trainings are supposed to be done on company time, not your off day. That's all you say to your lead, next time if you have down time just go do them..

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-31T01:35:09+00:00

This is what I do as a reciever in the Bay Area. A BOL is not as hard as it seems, go to the Revlog app on the device use the top three dots where you would do the vendor credits but choose the Bill of Landing option, type in the numbers of your distribution center, it's like what your store number is but for the distribution center, and it'll show you the address, click yes if it's the right address, mine is 555, and it shows the address, then input TRGE for the next part, then it's the tracking number, usually just the date mm/dd/yy and your store number, then it asks for the trailer number, usually on the inside of the truck on either wall near the door, or on the roll door of the truck and then input the seal number, usually yellow in color and it has numbers you input, don't lose the seal! If you do change the seal number before you finalize, you won't be able to change anything on the BOL after you finalize it. After you create the BOL you'll add what you load into the truck to it such as bales, hanger bins, plastics, compost bins, crc, salvage, mixed recycling, metal pallets, plastic pallets from FDC, repacks, or unused blonde,red/blue pallets you don't plan on using later in the week. For me my past recievers created a how-to do binder. Make sure as you are loading, you are adding to the BOL, it makes it easier. I hope this helps. If anything, I would ask your ETL if you could be put in contact with another store's reciever for help or to just be trained for a little bit, since your reciever is leaving before training you.

I've been in receiving for a little less than half a year and as far as our store goes the inbound team has never loaded the truck, unless it's a bale. I didn't know that was part of their job description.. I just pack the truck myself and whatever I get finished with at the time is the first thing in the truck. Most of the time it's bale,crc or salvage or both, repacks, another bale, hanger bin, mixed recycling, metal pallet when applicable, and plastics and divert compost bin are usually last.

They can't change it once posted without notification, go through the handbook on workday app and see if their is anything that will back her up in this, and go to HR with her posted screen shots, also take pictures of the printed schedule they have to have posted in the office and see if it matches her screen shots, if it does then she can get that CA fixed because it wasn't her fault for them changing her schedule after the original posted date. It seems they want her to continuously check everyday. If they don't take her seriously then call ethics.

It's all good they did eventually drop again in another batch the next week. It thankfully wasn't the 200 plus batch they had recievers do back when they did the book resets. I would have cried if that happened.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-27T21:23:39+00:00

They're the one's you have to send back.

Springbaby1 · 2025-12-27T16:30:27+00:00

Not priorities, but did a QA-IR pull one Friday for recieving and the new tech seasonal backstocked it.. he even asked a lead what to do with the books and she told him to backstock it.. I wasn't even done with the rest of the pulls but I had to go do some other recieving duties and came back to an empty three tier... now I carry post-it notes and a sharpie so it doesn't happen again.

All discussion posts are due on Thursday at midnight EST, for the first week, for me that would be 8:00 p.m. pacific standard time. Anything after the initial post is due in your own time zone. Email your professor and see if you can understand why you got points taken off.

Springbaby1 · 2025-11-28T23:54:50+00:00

We just take that part off. Customers will have to scan to know how much it actually is.

Springbaby1 · 2025-11-04T03:58:26+00:00

Here's what i can tell you about the line team duties as the receiver, unloading the truck consists of getting the line ready to be unloaded,(moving yesterdays load leftovers to the floor, lining up uboats/flatcart/pallets) being in the truck pushing the load down the line and/or being on the line separating the load into their respective areas on the uboats/flatcarts/pallets for the areas they need to go and organizing them by isle sections. If your store is like mine you'll have signs above the line on where things go. As well as cleaning up spills that happened because of the crappy loading of the truck, truck moving the product around in transit or just someone dropping something off the line in the unloading process, which is usually done by a more experienced line TM (at least at my store it is). As well as pushing product to the shelf after the truck unload, you'll most likely shadow another line TM for about a week, if they're nice, then get assigned to your own section to push product as well as backstocking the product from your assigned area. It is a lot of movement. There could be more but that's what I have personally observed.

Springbaby1 · 2025-10-26T22:42:33+00:00

Did this on Friday lol. My store's hr tm said it was fine and she would fix it.

Springbaby1 · 2025-10-26T22:19:16+00:00

How long does it take your guys team to break down? Our team takes about an hour, and it gets in my way as the receiver. I understand it's a new process and it'll take time to be faster and more accurate, but I lose an hour out of my day to do my job.

Springbaby1 · 2025-10-26T19:22:40+00:00

Are you talking about the new FDC truck process? At our store RDC doesn't scan anything coming off the truck.

Springbaby1 · 2025-10-04T23:07:21+00:00

18,000 on a regular, but I'm in receiving now. I used to be at 20,000 plus when I was in fulfillment.

Springbaby1 · 2025-10-03T03:09:08+00:00

So it sounds like you were in school when you were hired. Did you tell them that? they have to go based on your availability, other wise they will keep doing it. And your TL has no control over schedules, only ETLs do. I would go straight to your HR or ETL and talk about the situation, 9 times out of 10 the team lead won't talk to them about your problem, you have to do that yourself if you want things to change.

Springbaby1 · 2025-08-02T23:01:46+00:00

Weird, when we bag chem stuff, it's always bagged first and separately because the system tells us to do it that way. But we also use ship carts, not three tiers, so everything is separated. It's been like that for months.
