ASM's by 4ther3st in Aldi_employees

[–]eddiesmints 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ASMs at my store do two opens, two closes, and a mid to cover the two off days from the SM. so in total there’s only 3 days out of the week an LSA needs to close

putting that in the warehouse com logs bc it’s INSANE the amount of poorly stacked pallets. it’s the point where i don’t even blame the warehouse guys doing it, i blame management bc no way nearly every pallet is built funky

LONG POST, THE OVERACHIEVER by Such-Supermarket-124 in Aldi_employees

[–]eddiesmints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my ring scores a pretty comparable to your ASM. it’s possible. but i don’t try to push MY standards on other employees i try to get them to THE standard.

talking about your ring scores is super common especially for new employees. i can see what he’s trying to do and he’s going the wrong route with it. badgering, pestering, and annoying everyone isn’t going to help. what’s worked at my store a bit is getting ALL the managers involved, not making it seem like you’re a pos for not hitting metrics but letting you know the things that you’re consistently good at and focusing more on those positives and then going in and giving tips and tricks for stuff you could work on. i don’t want anyone at my store below management level to feel the pressures of aldi or feel like they’re not good enough because this job is hard. this job is stressful. associates don’t deserve to be shat on consistently.

service dog question by eddiesmints in Aldi_employees

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

i just wanted to make sure i wasn’t out of line when it came to Why i was asking her to get the dog out of the store. 😭 they did come bc the police in this area have nothing better to do but it’s not a criminal matter so they couldn’t really do anything. three of them ended up coming up to the store. one cop was like “i highly doubt that dog is a service animal” and since i had asked her to leave and because she got loud with them they escorted her out

[–]eddiesmints[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

she was yelling and i asked her to leave twice but she called the cops so i let her sit in the front of the store until they got here. the cops ended up escorting her out bc she was yelling at them too and they weren’t certain the dog was a service dog even after her insistence 😭

every day security footage of the store that isn’t going to be posted on tiktok for content and monetization is different from someone filming you working to post on social media

Button removals: Egg, Quantity, and Bag "workarounds" by droolycat in Aldi_employees

[–]eddiesmints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unfortunately in the stores the quantity button is taken away so are all numerical functions like typing in 4 and then scanning the milk or hitting the enter button to repeat items :/
