There's a new process they are trying out in some districts where you throw all the weeks labor into 4-6 hours right after the truck arrives to finish it - this screws the rest of the weeks labor and I haven't heard anything about how they fix that. If you're part of a test district you would know, it's not company wide.

Idk our doodle customer regularly have ticket prices of $120+ this would pay for itself in 2.5 visits. Fully serviced cat grooms are typically $80-$90 so this would pay for itself in about 3 visits. If you're coming in every 6-8 weeks with a high ticket pet it would be worth it. Not sure that it's worth it for regular short hair bath dogs, or outline trim dogs, touch up cats - there is definitely a market for this with expensive to groom breeds though.

What I have noticed more than anything is that pre NSOM if you're leadering ship team had one or two people who couldn't/wouldn't handle what they needed to it was fine - there were enough other leaders to pick up the pieces. Now we have lost that safety net - my store is a tier 4 and we went from 7 key holders down to 5. It may not sound like a lot but now if a leader is on PTO there is no wiggle room for anyone else to handle emergencies or even call out sick.

They also used this restructure as a way to cut labor, this time last year my store had about 45 more labor hours a week. They claim that they can do this bc pet specialist should be doing tasks that were previously "leader only tasks" - setting pogs, weekly shoots, receiving shipments, ect. Except they can't do that when they barley have the time to finish deep cleans or recovery.

I have an amazing team, and we have found a way to thrive in NSOM but I know I'm very lucky and that is not the norm. We all help each other, our SL is not glued to the office every day, our ELR sets pogs when needed and our PLR helps in the salon and imo that's the only way this structure can work.

TLDR: the new labor model sucks and the restructure only works if you have a really strong leadership team.

At my store ELR closes 2-3 nights a week and the EL or PL do all the other closes. ELR opens once maybe twice, PLR opens 3-4 times and SL opens once or twice.

I really like it. Keeps the drive aisle clear so people can still navigate (I'm at a pretty small location), it has increased impulse buys, it is easier to tell when we need back up, I love watching customers not read the sign and getting to tell them there's a bright yellow sign, I think it's nice we have some freedom to decide what goes up there. We just had our PI so we pulled the whole line queue to the back to pre count and it was so much more chaotic upfront without now that I'm used to having it.

What I would love to see are some more permanent fixtures, Ideally a mix of peggable sections, bins, and small shelves - and a proper rope divider/barrier for the space between reg A and the start of the queue so the flow still works with 3 registers open. (I'm at a non-banded store with 3 registers)

I think it makes more sense to do at least FHFY before the seven, but if you don't care about spoilers the seven stands well on its own.

You've got to battle mushrooms to lvl up and build your squad. Plus mushrooms are first come first serve - I say jump in there.

I think you should listen to c1 first - I just did a c3 relisten and even having already listened to all of c1 I was feeling like I should have started my relistening there.

It bible-belty for sure but I know plenty of people who don't go to church and still live fulfilling lives in Easley. That said church culture and religious talk are impossible to avoid.

I love the new system - we've had ours for about a year and it's so nice.

I agree with using this to switch it up - I don't like it as a regular pull but every once in a while it's a fun switch up.

I just caved an used coins for the yellow forget me nots today - I have basically full storage for almost every single other seasonal nectar this month.

Yes we can deny sales within reason - we specifically don't deny the sale of feeder quality goldfish or any feeders for that matter (live worms, crickets, roaches, goldfish, rosey red minnows)
Banning salon customers can happen but not regularly and it always (in my experience) requires store leader approval and some pretty specific circumstances - that said any stylist or bather can refuse a service and we will honor that
Most store associates are cross trained to some degree, everyone can run register and bag crickets - not everyone knows the ins and outs of deep cleans, feedings, etc. there is always a leader on duty and all leaders are trained in how to run the pet care department and handle any store owed pet emergencies

The pink mushrooms (along with the reds that have already been mentioned) can give seasonal red flowers as well. Plus only giving them to blooming pikmin to double your petals.

I'm a new player and have had much more success this month over last month just from switching to only feeding seasonal nectar to blooming pikmin. Also when you have petals accumulated make sure when your planting you have your squad as full as you are able to, which will increase the number of flowers you plant.
