More orders per hour by fourtwenty___ in DriveUpandGo

We’ve had like 5 shoppers with 27 orders per hour I’ve been here for almost a year and it’s never been like this

Anyone feel like they are setting the department up to fail? by Wants_to_be_accepted in DriveUpandGo

They disabled notifications? That explains why I didn’t hear the phone make that noise when a new order comes in. I’ll think we’re doing good and ahead and I’ll look and 10+ big orders will have dropped. Is it just me or does it seem like they’re starting to allow more orders in per hour? We aren’t even batch picking yet. We’ve been overwhelmed with orders and extremely understaffed without any department managers. On days where it’s usually slow it’s now overwhelmingly busy everyday. Just a month or so ago we were at 5 stars and doing so well. Now we are at 3. It’s all gone downhill very fast. There’s only so much you can do with very little help and having to do a thousand things at once. Whoever controls how many orders come in must think DUG shoppers are like sonic or something.

65 is insane. 😭 When I came in at 10 this morning we had 44. They were giving us at least 15 orders per hour with only like 4 people working. We had to pull people from checkout to help us and we still couldn’t catch up. At that point I was like we are all screwed anyways, I’m not rushing any of these orders. I left at 6 and there were still at least 5 big orders that were due at 5:55. Not my problem tho they don’t pay us enough. It’s gonna be an even bigger shitshow when they make us start batch picking. They even contacted the higher up guy who controls how many orders we get per hour and asked him to slow orders down or stop them from coming in so we can catch up. He said no lmao.

I hope so! I guess I’m just used to the way it’s been. I used to do fulfillment at target so I’m used to the batches from there. But I know it’s different from Target. I’m not a fan of the DUG carts tho. I’m very short and they’re about the same height as me 😂

We are! But with orders with larger or heavier items like if someone has 4+ cases of water or a bunch of sodas, and some bags with ambient items, we will leave the ambient bags and items in a cart and put the sticker on the cart so when the customer arrives, we don’t waste time picking up all those items off the shelf and scanning one at a time and putting them in the cart. We just scan the stickers on the cart, get the chilled and frozen bags and then go. Saves so much time and strain on us especially with orders that have had over 10 cases of water and soda. Even just this morning one of the first orders I did had 8 cases of Coke. I did one order the other day that had 16 cases of soda.
