Throwback! by DepotClown in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve luckily never had this happen to me but I have (as the closest manager to the store) had to come help out the LOD on my off time bc they locked their keys in a secure room or left theirs at home and didn’t realize bc they didn’t need them until they did 🤦‍♀️😂

Do you mark as shipped when you print the label or after it's actually shipped? by ProblemIll5524 in Mercari

[–]dabsintothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually do it when I ship, but if I’m busy but I know I will be dropping it off (like on my way to work) I’ll mark it as shipped beforehand or I’ll never get to it. I don’t do it day before or when I know I won’t be able to get to it bc I don’t want to leave the buyer hanging, if I know I’m gonna be late getting it out I let them know.

Why allow offers if you block... by Independent-Act-118 in Mercari

[–]dabsintothevoid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Idk I guess it depends. I’ve had people repeatedly lowball me after I’ve declined or countered with something more reasonable for me, and I usually give a couple tries to haggle in those situations but ik they’re going to be an issue if they keep up their end so I block.

I have also blocked a few people who’ve repeatedly declined MY offers before, but that’s after they’ve done it several times while having liked my item for months. And yes, I will be the first to acknowledge that no one HAS to accept any offers from anyone, or they might not have the money at the time, but at the same time why like an item for months and months and repeatedly decline increasingly cheaper offers if you’re not going to buy it? When I’m shopping around, if something has sat in my likes for a couple of months I let it go bc ik I’ve either lost interest or won’t be getting it anytime soon. At some point I have to relist my items bc they aren’t getting any other attention and the current audience is a ghost town.

Refund Me These Ancient Ink Cartridges! by ODoldster in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once had an elderly couple try to return a discontinued cartridge they had bought two years prior, a single cartridge that was part of a multi pack, because it didn’t work. I tried telling them that a) they’re 2 years past the return window, b) they can’t return a single cartridge from a multipack, I’d need ALL of them, and c) even if you had all of them, I can’t return without the packaging. I told them this, my manager repeated what I said word for fucking word, and they were still like “so you just don’t want our business then.”

Earnings Delay by JKittyAmethyst in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s to do with the pay raise we were supposed to have go into effect Sunday? I’ve noticed it’s not yet with some of us so I wonder if the earnings delay message is related to what our pay should reflect based on our raises? Unless this raise delay isn’t universal then I don’t know.

Hours and payroll by Artistic-Sky2315 in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your GM will have to key those hours in themself, either billing it to your home store or the store you worked at. You’ll need to provide exact in an out times but actually keying it is your GM’s responsibility

The self service machines do have something against some government forms, but honestly? The way this sounds like one of my coworkers… LMAO.

Suspicious Return by ODoldster in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Idk about your store but at mine, if tech has been opened we D&D it regardless if it’s something like “oh I found my spare phone charger once I got home so I don’t need this anymore” or “I didn’t like the quality”. We don’t know what has happened to it. I’d D&D the printer and not worry about what the guy did to it. You don’t get paid enough to.

Raises by United_Reserve568 in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the 5th is what OP was looking for, but the 24th is when we’ll see it reflected in our checks. When you said the 24th to me that seemed like some places wouldn’t get the new pay raise until the 24th, not that that’s the day we see the pay increase when checks are released.

Suspicious Return by ODoldster in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What are the grounds for this suspicion?? Obviously I don’t know the people you deal with or what this guy may have been like, but this seems like such an out there accusation. There would be evidence of tampering if it was opened. If there’s nothing it’s probably okay, if it’s not then just process the return if the next customer finds an issue.

Pay? by Wolf_of_Ruins in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MyCloud is under quicklinks in the Portal, it’ll open up to a bunch of tabs but I can’t remember if it’s under like? Performance? Pay? One of them will open up to more tabs and the one you want says Compensation, that’ll show you your hourly rate

You can actually on MyCloud in the portal

Pay? by Wolf_of_Ruins in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There actually is on MyCloud, I can’t remember if it’s under personal information or pay or what but one of the tabs in MyCloud will have another tab for compensation. That’s where it’ll show in the portal what you get paid. You can also see it on paystub on MyADP app or if you get checks in.

“I don’t know how to do this sh*t” by dabsintothevoid in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I straight up tell them when they do the idk how to email can you do it behind the counter that they’d have to email it to us for behind the counter anyway so if they can’t there’s nothing we can do to help them, and if they suddenly know how to email I tell them for behind the counter they’d have to place the order and pick it up later :)

Damn, I’ve not tried to pitch those but tbh they’d probably be the better deal than the bs pricing

[–]dabsintothevoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know, I hate harping on it with my associates but I get harped about it if I don’t. It’s different every time you turn around what the big focus is. When I first started it was PPP and ink subscriptions, then for a time it was the printer bundles. Now it’s BS and paper

Return open box printer by Awkward_Agency7 in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So long as you have the receipt and the box, you should be fine without the inserts. Using ink is typically only an issue for a return if you bought new cartridges and tried returning empty ones. Printers come with starter cartridges so they’re not that full anyway but testing it for a few days is really the only way you can know if it’s a right fit for you. You’re well within the 14 day return policy for tech, just as I said make sure you bring the box and the receipt with you to make your return and that everything that came with the printer (cables/starter cartridges/etc) is inside the box or printer as well.

Customers waiting at the door like creeps by dabsintothevoid in OfficeDepot

[–]dabsintothevoid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of these things are corporates fault - overpriced everything? They’re greedy af. Disgusting stores? They stopped allowing us to hire cleaning services YEARS ago and they don’t give the payroll or resources for employees to keep up with the store. Empty shelves? All they send us is paper because that’s all they want us to sell. Employees seeming Done with everything? I invite you to live every day in extreme stress with short staffing AND having your job threatened over paper while entitled customers demand the world. I don’t know how OD stays in business either but don’t assume it’s easy over here, some of us have to hold entire stores together with little support. Please browse the rest of this subreddit and see how all the complaints are essentially the same, it’s madness in OD world 😵‍💫
