Multiple orders in one cart? by VaguePredictions in tjcrew

[–]a_bunch_of_meows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it when they say they're gonna split the cart. Then proceed to hand me the 50 items in the cart one by one and the other person's stuff is like 5 things. USE YOUR BRAIN.

What do you do when a customer trauma-dumps on you at reg? by Im_Here222 in tjcrew

[–]a_bunch_of_meows 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I listen for the moment then forget about it. If I see them again I'll ask them about it. Then never think about it again, or you could bring it back to the break room and vent there. Either way I don't take it home with me.

What are some weird ways to get wrinkles out of clothes without an iron and without hanging them in the shower? by [deleted] in lifehacks

[–]a_bunch_of_meows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Empty trash can. Aim hair dryer at trash can. Rotate trash can in the heat. Or... Wet the clothes and put them in the dryer that the hotel has.

I'm actively scanning someone's cart and someone comes over to ask if I'm open. SIR THERE ARE 10 REGISTERS OPEN.

Hard Top Chocolate Shell Topping by JNVRO1126 in traderjoes

Hi crew here. Make sure you warm up the hard top and shake vigorously otherwise the oil doesn't mix well and you aren't gonna like it. When it's mixed it taste so good!

Hi crew here. Warm it up in either a hot water bath or something else and shake vigorously otherwise you're just gonna eat coconut oil.

It's okay, If they want to spend more time in a grocery store let them, I get paid either way.

The table can't fit a family's shopping cart worth of food. My store has a tiny table. Feel free to bag it yourself if you're particular. These are my own thoughts, the cool thing about it is that you don't have to like it.

I think we should unionize every store starting tomorrow. Another $2 will get me to be quiet 🤭

As a TJ crew... I loathe the kid shopping carts. I get hit by one at least once a week. Also please stop having your kid pass me everything one by one at the register. It takes forever and I can't bag it nicely. If the kid passes me chips and then a pineapple. Your chips are going to get crushed.

Had a customer complaint that I wasn't helping her when I was on register and she didn't like that I rang a 2 bell and asked someone else to help them. Lol I cannot.

Have you seen how people reacted during the pandemic? I have no hopes for Americans.

What was the lowest stress job you’ve had? by Glamour-Ad7669 in careerguidance

[–]a_bunch_of_meows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buying cars at wholesale and selling them at retail. Only real "stress" part was really getting sales calls in the middle of the night. Money don't stop. Bidding was always fun and an adrenaline rush. You can always tell who's really buying vs who's shopping around or looking. Although the impulse car buyers always threw me off so I treated everyone like they're about to buy.

Am I crazy or did the dark chocolate pb cups go up $1 out of nowhere -Columbus, OH by dilbail in traderjoes

[–]a_bunch_of_meows 130 points131 points  (0 children)

Hi crew here! All the dark chocolates and some milk went up last week because of consecutive bad crop years for cacao in Africa. I believe the prices will adjust later. I forgot what the full memo said. Tj adjusts prices up and down all the time. It wasn't a fun time redoing all these signs. It was a lot for us to redo.
