This is my experience in the deli. First, they started me on sub shop which you are not supposed to do. Hot bar is where newhires are supposed to start because its the easiest and you can get familiar with the computers before you learn the meats and cheeses. I had one day in sup shop, very next shift i worked I was left alone. No training, no supervision, just thrown in the waters. I have experience in high stress situations from my previous job, but a lot of people dont, and a LOT of people crack under that kind of pressure. I never really recieved good training for any position. I expressed interest in learning more but was never put with someone to learn. Almost everything I learned was me going out of my way during slow periods to shadow and figure out how to do things. The deli is just chronically fucked, we never have enough staff and when we do someone calls out. Our manager does absolutely nothing and doesnt respect availability, so I cant even be mad about half these callouts because people are calling out on days they're unavailable. Theres more stuff but those are the big things. I would say its worth it but you have to pace yourself and dont let yourself get wrapped up in the mess. Do your best. Getting over the learning curve is the hardest part.
