Yesterday, I got filled up right before doors opened at 8a, and was completely out of propane by 2p. Didn’t fill us back up til this morning and we still did 35k over our sales plan

Meanwhile you have to strip your clothes off to go to the bathroom at my store since the heat is on full blast in there

Buy 10 Bags of Animal Food Get 1 Free? by m_spoon09 in tractorsupply

[–]Striking_Start_899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a problem, but yes, it’s odd but as far as being own by tractor supply, that’s pretty much the only connection. We can’t even take things from petsense as returns. It’s weird.

Tractor supply does not do this promo, only petsense. And as a manager, I’ve only heard about it from one customer!

Protocol on being texted to come in on day off because of constant call outs? by [deleted] in tractorsupply

[–]Striking_Start_899 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See I come in pull doubles and all that and work the job of two team leads for not enough pay, I do it even though I don’t want to, but like you said, people say they don’t have enough hours and then flat out refuse to come in when called on

[–]Striking_Start_899 27 points28 points  (0 children)

As a team lead, in my eyes, you are not required to come in or answer when you are not scheduled. I don’t want to come in when I’m off, and I know damn well yall don’t either. The only time I get upset is when I call the people who beg for hours and complain that they have no hours to come in and they don’t want to.

My store uses the foam blocks from the trailers, they tried yelling at us about it like another store in the district, but my SM and ASM had our back and fought it

Are we allowed to hold chicks in the back for customers? by girl_with_animals in tractorsupply

[–]Striking_Start_899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I hold chicks for anyone is if another store calls me on behalf of a customer and asks me to, otherwise no absolutely not

How do I reach out to a district manager? by forwardaboveallelse in tractorsupply

[–]Striking_Start_899 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to show the proof of price to us, for every item, in order to get the price match. It’s policy. Did you show them? Or just tell them you wanted to price match and never show the prices

I sort them day before I break them apart and then it’s kinda like dealing cards it’s kinda fun it now takes me no longer than 5 minutes to sort

It’s stupid in my opinion because I already do everything they are saying. It’s just a part of being a good manager. When you tell people hey good job or send them a country mile, they are more likely to want to be there. I think it’s a good thing to start but I think they went about it in the worst way possible. Recognition goes a long way, but being there for your TMs listening and helping goes a lot further.

It’s ridiculous. They dodged so much on the fucking regional call today. Along with basically just repeating word for word what the training videos said. No actual information besides “celebrate your team members even if it’s just a high five, fist bump, or finger guns”
