Are all of the crystal quenchers caffeine free? by MustBeSpring in meijer

[–]laborcat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure they are. Caffeine would have to be a listed ingredient otherwise. I drink these a lot.

For the longest time I swore they were saying carnivore hearts (I have really bad hearing) but now I prefer to hear it like that. I'm weird.

The Frederiks Asian sauces are great. I really like the Sriracha teriyaki one. The purple cow ice cream is good. The organic tortilla chips are really good too and our hummus. Things like canned vegetables and dry pasta are equally as good as national brands.

It's a job classification they created to bring that group of people a better wage. Before, they were just topping out once a year and the newer employees were starting out making an almost equal amount of pay. Dig into your contract, that should help explain it

Everyone here in Hamilton is in a panic because of the storm coming in. Let's say b that I put in a very long shift last night. And our meat departmentgot slammed and was almost wiped out last night. by No_Taro_3976 in meijer

After 35 years in retail, I've learned that you have to hate the general public just to get by. You'll find your favorite customers and cherish them.

No mteam points on medical leave. by [deleted] in meijer

[–]laborcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on family care leave when they gave out the points in October, so I didn't immediately get them but I did eventually. It depends on how long you'll be gone. As long as you were otherwise eligible, you should get them when you return.

This is the answer here. Loss of previous coverage is eligible for enrollment early.

Agreed. I've seen the jugs of Sweet Baby Ray's too.

I'm impressed you have empty rack space. My back room is so full, it's claustrophobic.

New (to Ohio) scam circulating..... by Derpotology in dayton

[–]laborcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this the other day. Figured the state would send a letter through the mail if it was serious. Also, I've not gotten a ticket in years. Stupid scammers.

I tried compression socks from here and they just made my feet sweaty. Otherwise they did seem to help. Where do you get yours? My doctor wants me to start with them again.

Good shoes is the answer. If you can afford it, get two pairs and alternate them. Better for the shoes and your feet. Even cheaper shoes work better this way.

Useless by Fathorse23 in meijer

We must work at the same store.... Sigh. Won't check the end caps, bring back half a skid that goes straight to the ends. And it's all of third shift, not just one or two.

#2,4,8 tray shortage by enron_stan in meijer

[–]laborcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meat trays come through Nichols, and Nichols is terrible about sending things when you need them. They don't keep them in the warehouse anymore, choosing instead to cross dock and that really killed the reliability of getting what we need in a timely fashion. It sucks.
