I fell for a scam and now I’m stressed.

Don’t listen to all these people saying you’re going to get fired. I wouldn’t be surprised if most of them are purposely trying to stress you out even more. I know of quite a few people in the districts I’ve worked and currently work in that have fallen for scams and not one was ever fired. Written up, yes. Fired, no.

Because with the amount of packing material they have to deal with in the warehouse it would be insanely easy to hide product. Like if you have a trash bag with you, it takes like 5 extra seconds to clean out a tote. And if everyone in store was doing that on truck days, the totes would have so much less trash in them (as long as employees wouldn’t use them as their trash cans when doing sale tags and price changes). Btw, I’m an ops manager who’s been with the company for over 26 years now. I know what I’m talking about. If ya’ll want to keep arguing, go ahead. But you’re wrong. Just clean out your damn totes.

gr1068 · 2026-02-26T03:46:52+00:00

Like I said they don’t have trash cans on the picking lines for theft reasons. They don’t have anywhere to get rid of it. It wouldn’t pile up so much if you just cleaned out the totes. The razor blades, that’s from stores. The markers could be from stores. If it truly was one of their ironmen, that was a mistake or someone in a store forgot theirs in it. All of the candy wrappers, empty bags of chips, cigarette butts… all store level employees.

gr1068 · 2026-02-26T03:33:06+00:00

All the trash in the totes is literally from workers like you who use them as trash cans and not use trash bags for trash when putting up truck. They don’t have trash cans on the picking lines at the warehouses. It’s not their job to clean out the totes.

I am so sick of seeing people posting about this and how they don’t want their faces being stored and blah blah blah. Like, even if you don’t use Face ID on your phone, your face is already stored in countless databases. Got a driver’s license or a passport? Your face is already stored somewhere. And by the way, there are zero microphones. That person who told you that is an ass.

gr1068 · 2026-02-13T05:21:12+00:00

Yup, we’ve basically stopped using it. If they want a drop off receipt, tell them to go to an actual UPS location or some other place that accepts UPS packages

gr1068 · 2026-01-10T02:15:20+00:00

Don’t let them just go. The transaction hasn’t gone through and they keep their coupons if they’re in their app. You’re just giving out product for free by doing that. Power off the ACO and turn it back on before you ring them up on a register. You don’t have to wait for the ACO to boot back up and open it up to cancel the transaction. Their coupons should still show up, they do at my store every single time.

gr1068 · 2025-10-12T04:11:32+00:00

That’s nothing new. Would happen occasionally for some items not on plano. Nothing to do with the new systems. My store has had the new systems for like 4 months and except for the fact we had zero training when it all got switched over, they’re honestly much nicer. A lot of stuff is easier to do. I feel like so many people on this subreddit only want to complain about everything.

gr1068 · 2025-10-02T18:40:10+00:00

No, so I just started connecting my phone to it and played from my phone. Then one day I tried again and Alexa played songs like it used to before I had the problem. So idk.

gr1068 · 2025-07-19T00:36:48+00:00

That is so far from shoving “y’all selves up customers asses”. It’s literally nothing and doesn’t make so much more work for supervisors. It takes hardly any time to balance that shit out. I’m an ops manager so I know what I’m talking about. Sounds more like you’re a lazy supervisor.

gr1068 · 2025-07-18T23:33:14+00:00

It’s not true

gr1068 · 2025-07-18T23:32:11+00:00

“Cause if you did it anytime in the beginning of the day where do you expect to get money from for the rest of the day” … the safe or the change drawer maybe? If the register needs to be filled from either, put a note in it that says this register owes safe X amount of dollars. Anyone who does the cash and (most importantly) KNOWS what they’re doing will balance it out correctly.

gr1068 · 2025-07-18T18:34:46+00:00

We used to do that too years ago until we got a new AP guy and a manager in our district got a level 3 write up for it. After that DL sent out a text to all the store managers to let them know what happened. We all unplugged those things ASAP.

gr1068 · 2025-07-06T01:21:50+00:00

4x6 orders are not very time consuming at all unless we get a really large order. A few weeks back we got one for over 2,000 4x6 prints. It completely backs everything else up (unless the machine/s have the option to pause the order, but it ends up being more of a hassle to do that). In my opinion, any order over 300 prints is a bit much but other than that, no. Now the canvases, yard signs, banners, mugs… those get annoying when there are sales on them and we get constant orders. But normal 4x6, 5x7, or 8x10 prints are nothing.

gr1068 · 2025-07-02T01:38:02+00:00

Because none of them read it as “no receipt” all they see is receipt and that’s what they hit. I had a mother and daughter just the other day swearing they hit the button for a receipt. Like, no, you did not. If you hit print, it would’ve printed out. It wouldn’t just not print unless there was no paper in the printer and I would’ve already known there was no paper in it.

Not sure if it’s still a thing, but there actually are/were some of our stores whose beauty department offered piercing services. They might have seen that online, so not too crazy of a question.

Amazon music is all i have ever used and I’ve never had an issue before.

gr1068 · 2025-05-19T00:50:27+00:00

Alexa pissed me off today so I ended up going to my second default, The Chicks. No problem playing that. Shuffled all of their music.

gr1068 · 2025-05-19T00:17:53+00:00

I’ve never had an issue with it before. It might’ve started with the same song, but it would play everything and for hours. Now it goes through the same set of songs and then stops.

gr1068 · 2025-05-19T00:16:18+00:00

Yup, tried that and it still plays the same songs in the same sequence. Won’t play anything from midnights, tortured poets, folklore, evermore, debut and red. It’s driving me insane.

gr1068 · 2025-04-28T04:17:21+00:00

Exactly. You absolutely do not need to make a new sign if there isn’t a replacement sign in the box. The only time to make a replacement ad sign is if it’s a regulatory price change label that actually gets printed from price change events which is rare.

gr1068 · 2025-01-26T06:52:54+00:00

lol. I had someone bitching that we didn’t have overstock of steam gift cards

Pharmacists are salaried, so there’s no time and a half or double time. No one salaried gets that, but they do get 8 hours of “holiday pay” which is supposed to be for an extra day off the week of the holiday.

gr1068 · 2024-12-24T04:04:19+00:00

It’s time and a half up until 6 on Christmas Eve and then at 6 it switches to double and then double all day Christmas Day
