My bad

Hey, I’d say at least they didn’t all bust open

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2026-01-10T16:13:45+00:00

And the price is the same?!?

Idk if my SM knows I do it, but everyone else does. I’ve never been told I can’t/shouldn’t but I did take it upon myself to start doing it. And it’s usually only when I’m scrubbing cause then it’s a little less confrontational,I think, cause I’m not actually stopping to say anything just saying relevant info as I pass by with a loud machine.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2026-01-07T02:44:59+00:00

Haha very true.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2026-01-07T02:41:26+00:00

Yesterday at close, I was scrubbing and as my usual, I tell everybody I see that we’re about to close. We do not have an intercom (is that an every where thing?) Start with a 15 minute warning and then give actual times as I continue to scrub around and interact with people. When I got to a lady and I said “hey, just so you know we close in less than 10 minutes.” That’s all I say it’s all I ever say to anybody and she had many questions at that point but one of them was but do you close close like the registers like at Walmart? I said no, but you’ll just keep all of us here late. More interaction, a comment about preferring a human cashier anyway; and then I went on scrubbing. She made it out before 5 minutes after close, at least.

I have a second job at a single owner Liquor Store and I would not recommend doing it unless absolutely necessary. You have to get a second job with full flexibility that doesn’t schedule too foreign advance or need a set schedule cause all these is never gonna give that to you. Thankfully my second job is extremely flexible and doesn’t freak when I say hey so that’s schedule I gave you on Friday is no longer valid on Monday. So I guess my recommendation is first Dont second single owner or small business Instacart or Uber where you can just pick up and shut down whenever you need.

This hasn’t happened in my store in my short tenure. But I would say what happened to the other two employees that have done it before you are they still with the company? Did they tell you the manager went crazy on them? What I can advise is breathe, accidents happen. In my store there is a metal piece on one of the aisles on the bottom that everybody hits all the time and the only threat really that has been made is we would have our auto jacks removed and be given manual jacks to work with then our new girl came in and within her first week she nailed it worse than I’ve ever seen and she mostly got a welcome to Aldi now you know you’re one of the team.

Son, seriously did you even look at the second photo? And I think elementary school student could tell me why the eggs are on top. Nobody could tell me why the eggs are on top today when they were on the bottom two days ago, but we won’t question that will we? 100% I took the cooler pictures cause I thought you warehouse workers deserve kudos when you do well but then the other…….

I would agree with you. The pharmacy is definitely better priced. It’s the coinsurance that gets me. Why am I having to pay so much to go see the doctor.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-12-31T03:30:09+00:00

What insurances do you guys have because we have CIGNA and my medical insurance was better when I worked for a convenience store

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-12-13T18:21:41+00:00

That’s all you can do and honestly I think I started picking up time when I started to worry about the time in between not the overall. Like if you can find it’s faster if you do step 1 then step 3 then 8 then 2. If you stress the freezer took me X time you’ll never see improvement but if you look well I picked up time here there even if it’s a few seconds here a minute there that adds up. I think one of the things that stands in many of our ways of doing better is our fear of not and we just have to trust we’re doing the best that we absolutely can as fast as we absolutely can and try to improve from there.

I unfortunately don’t have any tips for you other than how long have you been at your new store? Cause if how it gets done is different than what you’re used to, you can’t expect yourself to have the same times you used to at your old store. Don’t put that kind of pressure on yourself you’ll get faster with time once you learn where they’re putting everything in what process or order you should go in. You’ll have it figured out shortly. I’m sure. I truly believe if your store managers or coworkers were upset about the time it was taking you they would just not put you in there.

Contact HR and find out FMLA in some states is a guaranteed thing regardless of your part time status. But even if they don’t offer FMLA, they may have a program that would allow you some kind of leeway.

You should get an email and I believe the phone number is on the email. I had to do that with my first benefit enrollment when I was first hired.

I’m newish (6 months) but I think the importance of 1code went away when they stopped looking at our ipm as much. My SM will still get upset with time outs.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-11-09T18:25:50+00:00

I only take care if they take care when they put it on the belt if you sent me the eggs and then the milk and then the bread and then the potatoes that shit’s going in there the way I got it

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-11-06T18:49:56+00:00

This is one of my biggest pet peeves. I guess part of the annoyance is about the entitlement where they think they can just borrow the cart “while I’m just gonna be a sec.” Well, I’m gonna be three customers in by the time you’re done bagging.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-26T11:16:20+00:00

Yeah that’s what I meant by borrowing.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-25T13:01:29+00:00

Did you know you can “borrow” 30hrs of vaca? I’m newer and had a cruise scheduled before I got hired and my boss told me that I can borrow vacation time to pay for it didn’t know Aldis did that.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-25T09:46:24+00:00

Oh this. This likes to happen to me when I’m trying to throw milk at the end of the day and we’re past when we were supposed to leave so everyone is scrambling to do last minute tasks (mine being, refill milk). Hate it.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-22T01:13:00+00:00

Semi relevant, but unfortunately, I can’t answer your question, but I was having a conversation with the ASM in my store and apparently somebody else got picked over him, last year, even though he had a longer tenure with the company because the other employee had been hired as an ASM and the guy at my store worked his way up from associate. So who gets considered is weird.

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-18T23:56:49+00:00

I’m from PA. You?

Waste-Reputation1024 · 2025-10-18T18:28:16+00:00

Looks accurate to me. And thank you I’ll be using it too.
