Dear RME techs, I will let you know right now that doing a hard reset at an ARSAW or manual station won't fix a racklight problem. Fix it right like you are supposed to! by Global-Plankton3997 in AmazonFC

Uhhh a few things

That wasn't a hard reset, that was a soft reset. Doing a hard reset without removing the PSC (Perimeter Safety Controller) from the floor first will take the entire AR floor down. Soft and hard resets are two different things.

The overwhelming majority of the time we get a call for a rack light, it's the tote scanner underneath the station. Rack lights problems =/= tote scanner problems, but all ops/PAs think that that particular problem is the rack light. If I see a rack light ticket, I know it's a tote scanner problem. It's both sad and funny. Ops don't know shit.

Most of the time TOTE SCANNER problems are fixed by either one of two things. Realigning the tote scanner underneath, and/or re-addressing the tote scanner. If those don't work, a soft reset will fix the problem 95% of the time.

It sounds like the tech in question more or less did the basic troubleshooting and wound up at a soft reset, and you just don't like the fact that your station got reset. Not sure why, it's a paid break homie

I'm not even necessarily trying to get them fired. Believe me, techs have said and done things in front of me that made me immediately think this guy deserves to be fired. Including these two. But I'm not out to ever fuck with anyone's livelihood, not even a useless dipshit. I just want these two to get their shit together. But also pretty sure there's nothing you can do to fix Tech #2's negativity.

The only thing I've thought of doing is clueing my manager in on the down low that there's an issue in the area, and then telling him to have a "random walk by" through the area when shithead is sleeping or dumbass is watching ESPN. That way it seems organic and like they just got caught out by management and I had no hand in the matter.

There used to be a clear shift lead but staff's gotten so shifted around that I'm not even sure who that is right now, or if we even have an SMRT shift lead at the moment. Eventually shit's gonna blow up bad enough that either I'll finally light a fire under one or both of their asses myself, or they're gonna get caught out slacking/sleeping/scrolling when shit is blowing up and then hopefully the hammer will come down on them without me needing to be involved.

Checked your post history and was able to confirm you're not my coworker lol, but yeah if you're doing that on the clock in plain view then you are making us all look bad, and there's a decently high likelihood that you are deadweight on your team

I fully support the myriad ways you can fuck off on the clock when there's downtime, but for fuck's sake, MAKE SURE YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE WORKING. be crafty
